I'd have to say my top two:

All In the Family
Sanford and Son

Lear struck gold in the 1970's with that many sitcoms no one will ever top what he did.

All his sitcoms (IMO) are fantastic! Great choices by the way and great poll, too!! :)

Sanford and Son is my favorite, but I like all of Norman Lears shows though.
