Samantha Who? is a comedy series, so pretty much any show is bound to be funnier. I'm going to take a blind stab and say Pushing Daisies. (It might help if I'd seen Samantha Who?, but as I said, it's a comedy series, so that ain't happening.)

How is that 'jumping to conclusions' thing workin for ya? 
If you watch an entire episode online and don't laugh out loud I will give you a surprise.
Samantha Who? - Home - ABC.com
By the way, Pushing Daisies is also a funny comedy series.

It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia - Superb!
Flight Of The Conchords - Never seen it or heard of it.
Curb Your Enthusiasm - I LOVE IT! But it requires you subscribe to HBO, which makes it less that perfect.
The Office - Waaay over rated. And I am NOTHING like Dwight Shrume or whatever his name is.

The Office - Sorry.
The Office (British version) - Terribly sorry, old chap.
My Wife and Kids - Very funny! But I don't like it that Tisha Campbell and Martin Lawrence broke up.
MadTV - I gave up on them after Debra Wilson left. And it was only an act of loyalty that made me stay that long.
IMHO the first cast was really the best. (F) = Featured player not in regular cast.

The "Cavemen" thing was more of a joke, and yeah, agreed on the MADtv Cast. Though, they do have a few good people left. Bobby Lee, Michael McDonald, Crista Flanagan, Keegan Michael Key, and the new guy, Johnny Sanchez, are all pretty good. FYI, Debra Wilson is supposed to be returning for the 300th Episode this Saturday.

Facts of Life not so much, but there's no show like the Jeffersons!!!!
Still, "Samantha Who?" is warm and laugh out loud sparkly funny and Christina Applegate will win an Emmy for her portrayal. She is remarkable! You just fall in love with her over and over again every week!

WOW! Thanks for the heads up!
But are they even going to HAVE a show in light of the WGA strike?

Big Bang Theory, Pushing Daisies, Cavemen 
I think Samantha Who is a funny show too. Yet, on the other hand, I have an obsession for Christina Applegate.

Her show is the only one that makes me want to be a nicer guy. It quietly stirs my soul in a gentle and hilarious way, even though it's far from being a gentle or sissyish show. It's raucous and often ridiculous. After laughing out loud throughout the show I cried at the end of last nite's episode.

Pushing Daisies for the win. Here's hoping FotC will be able to write enough material for another season (they used up 98% of all their material from their nine year career for the first season  )

Quite well when it comes to sitcoms, actually. Hourlong dramas like House are murdering them for actual comedy.

If I watch an entire episode of anything on the Web and don't punch through my screen, that will be enough of a surprise for one lifetime. I'll see if I can catch it on the non-Internet tube sometime.

Well, I'm 30 minutes into Pushing Daisies. And I'll grant you it is entertaining and good quality fare but not ONE laugh yet.
And that is the thread topic, is it not?
What TV show is FUNNIER than, "Samantha Who?"
Samantha Who? is a 30 minute show and that makes it an unfair contest vs it's network stablemate, Pushing Daisies, which is an hour long show. It's much easier to pack laughs into 30 mins than 60. But in 30 mins of Daisies there hasn't been any guffaws. Smiles and interesting fare, for sure.
Outright laffs?
Pushing Daisies doesn't even leave the starting gate.
