Does that count? it mainly was a detective show, but if you are just looking at a comedy/drama dichotomy, it’s definitely a comedy, and not even a so-called “dramedy.” No hugging, no learning, or whatever Seinfeld’s motto was.
It even was kind of a workplace sitcom, albeit, it wasn’t filmed in front of an audience, so there were lots of outdoor shots-- but the topic is comedy, not specifically sit-coms.

Just an observation: are we defining this as any show classified as “comedy”? Because aside from variety shows, I can’t think of a single sitcom (as defined by including a laugh track) that ran for longer that 30 minutes.

Technically a variety show, maybe; but let’s face it, nobody was watching for the musical numbers. Carol was all about the laughs.

Pass.
Radar was a corporal, not an LT.

It was brief, but he was promoted. Season 5, Episode 5.
The gang ends a late night poker game when midnight strikes, with Radar winning the last pot. Hawkeye and B.J. are upset when they find out that a visiting Master Sergeant, named Woodruff (Sandy Kenyon), owes them both money and doesn’t have the money to pay up.
Woodruff, who works in the office that issues promotions, offers up a promotion to either of the doctors instead of the money he owes them. Neither one of them wants to be a Major, but B.J. suggests “Lt. Radar O’Reilly.”
A few days later, during mail call, Radar is stunned when he reads a letter from I-Corps to Col. Potter announcing his own promotion. Col. Potter beams with pride, and Klinger offers up Radar his first salute.
Now that he’s an officer, it takes a lot of time for the 4077th to adjust. Frank is horrified; Margaret is frustrated; and Radar’s friends, Zale and Igor, treat him like he’s the enemy. Things go worse when Radar tries to teach Klinger his Company Clerk duties, but finds Klinger disinterested.
It gets even worse - the nurse that has shown ardent romantic interest in him when he was a Corporal, now has no interest since he’s no longer “forbidden fruit.” Radar leaves horribly confused.
All the change ends up making Radar so miserable - he’s a man without two worlds - that he comes to visit Hawkeye and B.J., feeling depressed. Hawkeye and B.J., realizing their joke has backfired on Radar, offer to try and get him busted back down to Corporal. Radar gleefully accepts the demotion.
Now that he’s a Corporal again, the nurse is back to flirting with him, and he’s pals again with Klinger, Zale, and Igor, who wait for him outside the nurse’s tent to bust his chops, like they used to do.
