School Rumble is a good comedy. It’s hilarious and all the jokes are spot on (for me at least). And yes, the characters are often making a fool out of themselves but as I said before, it’s intentional for the jokes. When the story get serious you’ll get to see the true talent of the writer.
As for feeling embarrassed, I often find myself reacting like that to some failed-attempts-at-being-emotional scenes, not comedy. That’s why I love Sosuke in Fumoffu! even though he did nothing else than embarrassing himself most of the time.
