Top 5 Favorite Sitcoms of All-Time

The 70's one, but greatly appreciated the 80's show, too.

Also, surprisingly absent from lists here is Michael J. Fox's "Family Ties."

I really like Bob Newheart, too. I, of course, remember the '80s show better. I'll never forget the finale of that show when his wife from the '70s show woke up beside him and it was all a dream, lol.

He's so dry, and that's my favorite type of humor.

1. Fawlty Towers
2. Friends
3. Father Ted
4. I'm Alan Partridge
5. Phoenix Nights

Tough one....

1. Seinfeld (nothing else comes close for me)
2. All in the family
3. Everybody Loves Raymond
4. Bob Newhart Show (1st one)
5. Friends

I probably would chnage 2-5 weekly, though.....Beaver, MASH, Dick Van Dyke, Cheers, Cosby, Lucille Ball (orig show), Happy Days, Sanders, Andy Griffith..etc...come to mind as weekly candidates.

Yes Berkeleyan!!!!!!!!!!!!

Two and a Half Men is very funny!

isn't it !?

Screamingly, nastily funny !! It's more than a comedy, it's a biting satire to many conventional values and to the extremes of two-faced bas**** and goody two shoes wussies !!

Seinfeld
It's Your Move
Andy Griffith Show
Sanford & Son
Cheers

Refresh my memory, what is It's Your Move? It sounds very familiar.

Lots of great sitcoms here, have to admit. But has anyone (guess I'm showing my age here, huh?) mentioned either WKRP in Cincinnati or Taxi?
I know Kramer from Seinfeld is great and all, but Jim Ignatowski (from Taxi) may have been the original. Maybe we have a new thread, best all time sitcom characters.

I did mention WKRP. It is one of the best ever.

I always thought Johnny & Bailey were the best couple.

There's another good thread, Best T.V. Couples

ddr, call me nutty, but I was one of the very few who would have liked to have a ..."talk" with Bailey over (whatever they called) Loni Anderson.
