I just recently started liking Seinfeld by a accident. It was nothing on TV and i was on the internet and it seemed like the more i listen to Jerry, the more interested I became in watching the show. Another show would be All in the Family.

The Nanny, I came across about a week ago, and have been watching it ever since.

ER is probably the best example. I was watching the regular NBC comedies on Thursday and did not turn the television off after the last one. ER started, I watched, I got hooked. I watched for the rest of the season and intend to watch this upcoming season as well.

The same can be said for Farscape and Nip/Tuck. I cannot think of any comedies that I saw by accident and then proceeded to start liking.

Most shows, with a few minor exceptions.

that 70s show and many years ago wkrp

"Mad About You"-once, NBC was showing some of it's comedies in a block, on a night they normally weren't shown. (I think this was 94 or 95). All the ones they showed, I already watched : "Frasier" ",Wings", and I forget what else. But, they also showed an episode of "Mad About You" which I had heard of but had never seen.
I watched it, and was hooked.

Cheers.

I was bored while I was on vacation, and there's really nothing on between 1 am and 2 am but Cheers. I was never a Cheers fan, but I was bored. So, I left TV Land on, and they were airing the first season episodes. They're not too bad. And, I just picked up the first box set, and the episodes are genuinely funny.

"M*A*S*H"- I was too lazy to change the channel (yes, it's sad,) so I just kept the TV on, and eventually got interested.

"Wings"- turned on the TV when I woke up, USA Network was on, there was a very funny scene, liked it ever since.

"The Lucy Show"- I was home alone, the cable wasn't working plus it was Sunday so there was nothing on. Took a risk by actually surfing broadcast channels over ch. 13, found a neat independent channel airing this.

"WKRP"- same reason as above, came on right after "TLS."

All of the shows I like

For me, it's Seinfeld and Three's Company.

Dharma & Greg: One night I was waiting for 3rd Rock from the Sun to air on Fox. It was airing late due to a baseball game, and I sat through an ep of D&G in the meantime. I thought it was a cool show, and became hooked. Its now one of my favorite modern sitcoms.

I sort of stumbled upon Mr. Ed, Coach and Wings and ending up loving them. Same with Barney Miller.

Full House, I just caught the marathon on Nick@Nite and then every night I gound myself watching it until I loved it....

Survivor.

My roommate tried for the first 8 weeks to get me to watch and I flat out denied. Let's just say I haven't missed an episode since.

The Golden Girls

Roseanne. I could never stand Roseanne, but I was bored one day and started watching some episodes on our CBS affiliate. Granted I don't care for anything after the second season (I used to say first), I still really like to watch those "beginning" episodes.

That 70s Show. My parents always watched it and I never really liked it. I've caught a few episodes here and there and its not that bad.

Three's Company. I don't remember how I got into it but I know I didn't plan on it.

Facts of Life. I was so mad because N@N took off I Love Lucy to air this but this show was really funny I discovered.

gilmore girls

I Love Lucy, Dick Van Dyke Show, Cheers and Friends

Like... all the shows I like

Newsradio, Evening Shade, and Green Acres.:wave:

I was watching My Wife and Kids , on UK's Trouble , and I could not be bothered to get of my ass and change channel , Run of the House was on Next , I had never heard of it , But now I am hooked! (Too bad it only lasted 1 Season , :( )

I caught Still Standing on CBS and love it.

I fell on to South Park by accident as well and love it.

Diff'rent Strokes. This show used to come on TNN right before and after Three's Company. Both shows were on in the morning and I had nothing better to do but watch. After about a week watching Diff'rent Strokes, I was hooked to the show. I was surprised ...

My parents watch seinfeld at dinnertime. I never liked it but then it came to me same thing with king of queens

Home Improvement, Murphy Brown, and The Fresh Prince of Belair

Roseanne is another Show that I didn't plan on watching every night

I Love Lucy (and basically all classic TV). A kid I was babysitting had N@N on so I watched and got hooked on classic TV.

Adam-12, Emergency, and Dragnet. For years I couldn't understand how my dad watched these, but then one day I sat down and watched them and now I think they're awesome.

My Favorite Martian. I think it was on TVL in the morning as I was trying to wake up.

The Powerpuff Girls. It was just on one day and I wanted to see what all the fuss was about.

Drew Carey and Whose Line Is It Anyway...funny I caught them both in their second season on television. There was nothing else on and I left it on Drew Carey and found it to be so hilarious. Same thing with Whose Line. They are my faves of all time. I love the reruns.

Grounded For life (when it came to the WB) and Phil Of the FUture on Disney. (so embarrassing)...LOL

The Osbournes
Married With Children
Three's Company
David Letterman
