If I only had 16 shows to ever watch again, I'd pick these:

1. Maude
2. Bewitched
3. Charlie's Angels
4. Mama's Family
5. Designing Women
6. It's a Living
7. The Golden Girls
8. Roseanne
9. Queer as Folk
10. Hazel
11. Alice
12. The Donna Reed Show
13. The Lucy Show
14. Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman *
15. The Brady Bunch
16. Dallas *

* These two ranked higher than they did on my all-time faves list because there are so many episodes (325 and 356 respectively) that it would take me longer to watch and I wouldn't be as bored.

Wow, my list now would probably look quite a bit different since I originally posted...

Now it would probably look something like...

Everybody Loves Raymond
8 Simple Rules
Seinfeld
Home Improvement
Roseanne
That 70's Show
The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (sort of inconsistent for me, but when it's good it's good, too good to not include it)
Family Matters
My Wife and Kids (even though it went down severely in quality I still love the first two seasons)
Married... with Children
George Lopez
Frasier
Sanford and Son
The Cosby Show
Two and a Half Men (this show is kind of inconsistent but either way it would only be the first 7 seasons)
Full House (more of a comfort show than anything)
