I dislike "How I met your Mother", "Two and a Half Men", "Roseanne", "Ubhappily Ever After", and "The Brady Bunch" to name a few.

Small Wonder.

Some of the worst sitcoms ever made (yet oddly enough all of these were popular shows) are...

Two and a Half Men
George Lopez
The Nanny
The Beverly Hillbillies
Sanford and Son
Will & Grace

Isn't it wonderful how we all like/dislike different shows but (so far) there hasn't been any bashing about it.

Family Matters I enjoyed the beging of it then after steve made him self into stevef urlk I didn't like it it got really when they split into two people
Fresh Prince I enjoyed fresh prince it kind of got dirty toward the ending of the show
Who's The Boss I enjoyed it unitl after they got married
Growing Pains I liked the being I was never really a fan of the show I used to own the first season on dvd but I liked family ties better
What's Happening I enjoyed this show its ok show =
Sister Sister I didn't care for it too much I enjoyed some episodes' better then others I wouldn't call my self a fan.

Some I agree with, some I don't, and a lot I never watched. Some on the list like My Mother The Car are the generic go to's that always get put on the list, and it's no where as bad as its reputation.

Mama's Family definitely does not belong on the list.

Here are some sitcoms I just can't stand:
Malcolm in the Middle
The Big Bang Theory
Two and a Half Men
Modern Family
Hogan's Heroes
F Troop
McHale's Navy
The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
George Lopez
CPO Sharkey
Father Knows Best
The Monkees
The Nanny
Married With Children
The Office

Mama's Family definitely does not belong on the list.

Exactly! Mama's Family making that list is downright criminal!

Yeah that's ridiculous. I'd like to hear the reason. It's one of the funniest sitcoms of all time.

Happy to say I've only seen Joey, AfterMASH, and Mama's Family.

MF was lukewarm humor, at best, but it's hardly one of the worst ever.

The Beverly Hillbillies
Green Acres
the nanny
mash
the cobsy show
married with children

Those who listed the Nanny. Give it another try, ;) it's a really funny show!! :D Really hilarious !!!:lol:

And Green Acres too!! Give this very funny show another try!;) :D I don't see how anyone could find it not funny!! :confused:

I've never been able to sit through an episode of Charles in Charge. Every other comedy I've tried to watch I made it to the end of the episode.

The Cosby Show
Saved By The Bell if I were still within the target age group when it debuted I would have quickly changed the channel
Happy Days once the boys went to college it was all down hill
Good Times
Different Strokes
We Got It Made
Bosom Buddies
Mork and Mindy

Gilligans' Island
The Cosby show
Differant Strokes

Cheers OMG!! Hated the characters especially Carla! Ugly troll!

Batman 66 I'm sorry Adam West passed away but this is the worst interpretation of the comic book hero. It is treated as a comedy so this should count.

No offense, but I can't see any scenario where the Batman series could be categorized as a situation comedy. Action/adventure, yes. Action/comedy, yes. Situation comedy, no.

Batman 66 I'm sorry Adam West passed away but this is the worst interpretation of the comic book hero. It is treated as a comedy so this should count.

I'll take the Adam West version any day over the Clooney, Kilmer, and Christian Bale and his annoying Clint Eastwood shtick any day.

I second that Torgo!! The TV Batman series was a classic!! ;) Lots of fun!! Adam West was by far the best Batman IMO!!:) :wave:

Why bother watching TV is you hate everything?

It's one thing not to like a handful of shows and wonder why they were popular (or not), but anyone who has a novel of shows they don't like then the problem is the person and not the shows.

By the way, the Mary Tyler Moore Show is one of my favourite shows ever. Family Ties was one of my favourite sitcoms during it's original run, but now I can't get into it.

They probably watch stuff on the list of shows they like.

Yeah, and believe me, I have a much longer list of sitcoms I do like than the list of ones I don't

Exactly! Mama's Family making that list is downright criminal!

Thank you!!!! That is how Batman is suppose to be.

Also, Amen. I saw a handful of episodes but was totally turned off by one that was really sac religious. I will never watch Amen again and do not want it coming to Antenna like other posters have wished.

Thanks for reminding me. I never want to see that one again either.

I did a TV Sitcom survey in college for one of my classes, asking respondents the 10 best and 10 worst TV Sitcoms ever. The Andy Griffith Show got the most responses for "best"; for "worst", Green Acres.

Roseanne
Two And A Half Men
How I Met Your Mother

To name a few.

Ed.

The Office
The Mindy Project
Park and Rec (whatever)
30 Rock
And basically all sitcoms in the genre of those listed.

Green Acres
Mork & Mindy
Fresh Prince
Family Matters


Latter seasons of Roseanne
Latter season of The Cosby Show (mainly when they added Olivia)
Any seasons without Denise on Different World (never a fave but tolerable)
Latter seasons of Bewitched, the new Darren episodes

My mother cannot stand The Big Bang Theory at all.

What are the 10 best and the 10 worst?

It's been so long I can't remember, since this was in 1995, and I have no idea where my paperwork for this is. Sorry! :(

It's okay. Anyway, I'm also putting The Cosby Show on my list along with My Wife and Kids.

Welcome Back KotterUp your nose with a rubber hose. ;)

In your ear with a can of beer it was pretty lame when you look back at it.

I'll take the Adam West version any day over the Clooney, Kilmer, and Christian Bale and his annoying Clint Eastwood shtick any day.

Agreed, the villains alone made the show one of the best ever. I also don't care to see Batman in animated form unless it's part of Super Friends.
