I hate to seem lazy, but
here's a list of my personal fave comedies.
You can check it out and see if there's anything in there that would suit you guys' comedic taste buds.
There's a lot of Japanese stuff in there though, idk if you'd be open to Jdramas as well.
And as for historicals, I'm currently watching The Three Musketeers, it's still ongoing but so far it's really good and interesting and action packed, which is something that usually appeals to guys... (though I can't vouch for the quality of the action sequences.... )
Sungkyunkwan Scandal was probably the best historical drama I've seen til now. It's pretty funny as well.
And there was also Rooftop Prince which is set partially in the Joseon period as well. It was really funny and romantic and the concept and story was pretty interesting.
