I chose "Car 54, Where Are You?" from the list because it cracks me up.

From the shows to choose from in this list, I chose Hazel.

Leave It To Beaver aired until 1963, but it debuted in 1957, so technically it's really a 50's sitcom. Dobie Gillis and Dennis The Menace debuted in 1959, so they can be defined as 60's sitcoms.

There should be more shows in this list. Where is Bewitched? I Dream Of Jeannie? Addams Family? Green Acres? Get Smart? Hogan's Heroes? McHale's Navy? Flintstones? Just to name a few. Flintstones is animated but it's still a 60's sitcom.

From the list Leave It To Beaver.

I also love Car 54, Where Are You!

I think it's one of the most progressive and original shows of its time. They had people from different backgrounds together without that being the focal point of the show or a very special episode. And bonus -- it centered on middle aged adults without cute kids and pets. Pure comedy. Love it. :wave:

That was the good thing about it. Too many sitcoms from that era always had a kid in the show. It was refreshing. It was something different from the rest. That's why I loved it!

It was a tough choice between Andy Griffith and Beaver, but I finally went with the Beav. However, my favorite wasn't among the choices offered: Bewitched (only the Dick York years, of course)

Voted for "TBH" but "Green Acres" is my absolute favorite from the 60s.

From that list, Dick Van Dyke. All time, though, Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie rank ahead of it.

Tough choice--thank you for not having Patty Duke Show or My Three Sons in the poll.
I couldn't choose so I went with the show I would most likely to watch on dvd, Car 54, Where Are You.

My favorite would be He and She, with Occasional Wife second. Very limited poll. How about a none of the above selection?

It is a tie between Family Affair and That Girl

Good choice. Family Affair was good. Never cared For That Girl, That much.

Really? I love That Girl; I thought it was a cute sitcom, and I absolutely LOVED the outfits that Marlo Thomas wore during the series


Me too!! And I loved her boyfriend Donald!!!! When I was a little girl, I was like when I grow up I want a boyfriend like him!!!;) :D And her cool apartment, her big hair and cool clothes and all!!! The show was cute!!! :)

The show was cute, her clothes were cute, and Donald was cute. :D That Girl is one of the few sitcoms, from the 1960's, that I actually enjoy watching.

Another sitcoms that was not added (in the poll) was My Favorite Martian; another fave of mine. :D


I caught an ep of My favorite Martian the other day on COZI TV!!! I hadn't seen it in so long. It was a cute, funny show!!!!! Bill Bixby was so young and cute!!!:)

It is a tie between Family Affair and That Girl

Family Affair is growing on me. The first time I saw it was on the old fX channel when I was a teenager. I thought it was pretty corny. Now, that I'm older and (slightly) more sentimental, I can appreciate the warmth and cuteness it brings.

I like That Girl, particularly season 2, which I have on DVD. However, I discovered when MeTv aired it that I really can't stand Ann Marie's voice and excitement too early in the morning. I need caffeine and sleep to awesomeness of Ann.

OH Nuts!

Of the show's listed in the poll, I like Hazel the best. But my favorite 60s show is Bewitched by leaps and bounds. I'm also very fond of That Girl, but that could be argued as a 60s or 70s show, since it spanned both decades.

My MOST favorite show from the 60s has to be The Munsters! I do love all the shows from that decade though!

The only one I take is The Andy Griffith Show. It still holds up and still looks fresh today.

Out of that list I'll go with Dobie Gillis, very closely followed by Leave it to Beaver

Gilligan's Island & it's not even close.

I like the ambience of the island in addition to the show itself.

I can't vote in a poll that includes Hazel, Dennis, and Car 54... but not Bewitched, Jeannie, and Green Acres
