I watch "The Daily Show" (Jon Stewart) when I can. That is seriously the funniest AND most intelligent show coming out of the United States that I'm aware of.

Mythbusters is pretty sweet too.

To the OP- The original "The Office" (i.e. The British one) is good also (in my opinion better than the American one, but I saw the British one first). The first episode is almost exactly identical but afterwards they start to differ so you can watch the British series on it's own without it being ruined.
