I am a little sad you omitted The Whitest Kids you Know from the list. Not consistently great but man, some of those episodes and skits were amazing.

There's a lot out there. I mean, keeping it to 30, and not disturbing any of the UK ones, and not getting rid of any of the historical ones (pre-90), what would you remove to put it in?

Human Giant?

The poll left out All That, Robot Chicken, Animaniacs, Animation Domination Hi Def, and The Hollow Men
EDIT:
And arguably Whose Line Is It Anyway as well

Coming from the UK, my favourite sketch show has to be the fast show, I'm not sure it was universally popular though

I watched a few episodes of Laugh-In as a kid, but the humor went past me. Future President Nixon, who did not have a funny bone in his body, popping out to say "Sock it to me" is about the only thing I 'got', as irony. After 1974 the irony got even thicker but not so funny.
Muppet Show, however, I understood and enjoyed in original run.

Sad to see no early Stephen Colbert's Exit 57, they had some really great sketches. This was one of my favorites.
