View Full Version : The Last Fantasy/Scifi Sitcoms?
littletydramon 01-28-2008, 05:08 AM What were the last fantasy/scifi sitcoms to air on primetime television?
I guess I'm talking about sitcoms alone the same lines as Sabrina or You Wish with a strange character with powers or something like that.

JulieSomoski 01-28-2008, 04:57 PM There's those Disney sitcoms, if those count, like That's so Raven, or that new show about those wizards, can't think of the name right now.
Lorimar Television 01-28-2008, 06:15 PM It's Wizards of Waverly place!
Dean Winchester 01-28-2008, 06:21 PM hmm, what about Supernatural and Smallville, both still air on CW?

But neither of those is a "sitcom." They're both dramatic shows.
Dean Winchester 01-28-2008, 06:48 PM ohhh, you're right. I was wondering why everyone was forgetting about Smallville, Supernatural, Charmed, Angel, etc... that were on the air after Sabrina's final episode, but I forgot that "sitcom" was the key word.

Thanks. I wouldn't watch it, but that still counts as supernatural doesn't it?
I think we can pretty much all say the last decent supernatural sitcom was Sabrina the Teenage Witch. I wonder why we don't see too many of those anymore.
wkomorow 01-28-2008, 08:49 PM In reality, there have been very few good fatasy/scifis and only a couple of great ones. The best - My Favorite Martian, Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie were many decades ago. There have bee a few ok ones. Raven was not as good as Futurama, which is not as good as Sabrina, but Sabrina was no where as good as 3rd Rock from the Sun - which I think was the last really good sitcom. Most have been campy - Come Back Mrs Noah, Red Dwarf, My Hero.

You're welcome! I really don't watch that either.

Too much reality drek. I watch TV to escape reality, not continue in it. And what a better way to escape than a show about Martians and Witches and Genies and whatever?

That's a good way to put it. But, sitcoms altogether today are not as good as they were 10 years ago.
