Cheers, Seinfeld, (and to a lesser extent) Married with Children, I hated at first though grew to love. Family Matters, Growing Pains, The Hogan Family and the Cosby Show I liked at first but then grew to hate.

Hated, grew to like

Welcome Back Kotter
All in the family
Monty Pythons flying circus


liked, grew to hate

I Dream of Jeannie
Bewitched
The Facts of Life (I actually dont hate this show, just grew sick of it! FOL has pretty good watchability, but it doesnt have re-watchability!! I just cant watch episodes of this over and over again, and now that I've seen every episode theres no point in watching it any more!! I believe it's time for FOL to be moved into a later spot, and be replaced by a show that hasnt been seen for a few years.)

Dude, Classictvman, I have to agree with you about FOL!! It's good the first time, but the second time it's so, well, boring. As for HAppy Days, I dunno, maybe I'm obsessed (obviously) but I could watch most of those eps at least twice...there're just some shows that are more re-watchable than others.

Don't hate me about this (hangs head) http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif but I didn't like FOL at first, but that was back when it was on USA, I was in first grade, and only watched it when I was sick, which was barely. Now I *love* it! http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif

What caused the switch?
:argue:

For one, I used to like I Dream of Jeannie, since I had never seen Bewitched before. But now that I have and *LOVE* it, I realized how much funnier, sophisticated, and "the most subversively feminist show of its era" BW was. :cool:
