Best 2026 Paramount Entertainment for humor

#1 Lioness, Season 3
5.0

Humor remains useful even as the season gets darker. Light banter and comic beats help release pressure without fully breaking the thriller tone.

Pros: action quality, main cast performance

Cons: dialogue quality, episode structure

#2 Colin From Accounts, Season 3
4.9

The final season keeps the show's comic identity intact, drawing praise for sharp banter, cringe situations, political jokes and even its raunchier punchlines.

Pros: humor, writing quality

#3 MobLand, Season 2
4.1

Dark humor is a major draw for many reviewers, especially when brutality and absurdity collide. Detractors find the jokes, banter, and profanity strained rather than funny.

Pros: story quality, entertainment value

Cons: season pacing, visual style

#4 Avatar: Seven Havens
4.0

Small asides, Pavi’s odd habits, and playful pairings preserve much of the franchise’s comic charm. Some jokes miss, and a few critics find quips undermine the danger or lack the...

Pros: visual style, suspense

Cons: episode pacing, season pacing

#5 Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Season 4
3.9

Comedy is often a highlight, from Spock and Pike’s fantasy doubles to the stoner-style episode, but some parody-heavy installments are described as painfully unfunny.

Pros: entertainment value, humor

Cons: genre satisfaction, story quality

#6 jackass: best and last
3.7

Classic bits remain reliable laugh generators, and several new stunts reach inspired slapstick heights. The heavy reliance on feces and rectal jokes is the most common comedic turnoff.

Pros: entertainment value, emotional impact

Cons: originality, action sequences

#7 The Madison, Season 1
3.6

The lighter material often provides welcome relief from the grief, especially through Russell McIntosh and the fish-out-of-water situations. Some critics found the jokes awkwardly placed or too broad.

Pros: cast chemistry, humor

Cons: story quality, writing quality

#8 Golden Axe
3.5

The fast, self-aware jokes divide viewers sharply: some find the fantasy parody hilarious and unexpectedly warm, while others find it stale or abrasive. Even fans often need a few episodes...

Pros: humor, faithfulness to source material

Cons: visual style, tone consistency

#9 Passenger
2.9

Small jokes, campy lines, and accidental silliness provide occasional amusement. For some viewers, its strongest comic value is as a knowingly bad group watch.

Pros: visual style, directing quality

Cons: scares, story quality

#10 The Varnell Hill Show
2.3

The comedy is sharply divisive: a few viewers laugh often or enjoy isolated bits, while many find the punchlines dated, forced, and rarely funny.

Pros: guest appearances, acting quality

Cons: humor, fourth-wall narration

#11 Scary Movie
2.3

The comedy is wildly inconsistent. Inspired sight gags, fourth-wall jokes, and committed delivery earn real laughs, but the rapid-fire barrage contains far more stale, obvious, stretched, or recycled punchlines.

Pros: ending satisfaction, acting performance

Cons: humor, plot clarity
