I know this is sacrilegious but I never liked Audrey Meadows as Alice in The Honeymooners. As much of a pompous blowhard Ralph was and deserved to be put down, I never sided with Alice because I thought Meadows played Alice a little bit too cocky, judgmental and snide. Worst of all, she came across as cold to me. Trixie would always yell at Ed but you could sense that she was a fun loving girl who probably enjoyed going out with him and having a lot of laughs when he wasn't being frustrating because Joyce Randolph gave off a a feeling of warmth. Audrey Meadows not so much.

On the other hand, I loved her on Too Close for Comfort. She was a perfect foil for Henry (Ted Knight) even though she was playing more or less the same type of role. On that show, she would put down Henry but I never felt like she was vicious or arrogant.

Loved Kevin James as Doug on King Of Queens, disliked him as Kevin on Kevin Can Wait.

@catsrule: Wow, that's an impressive list! Can you share a reason that made you flip on one of these actors, like the other posters? I'm curious!

I didn't care for him on Head of the Class, either, even though I loved him on WKRP.

@catsrule: Wow, that's an impressive list! Can you share a reason that made you flip on one of these actors, like the other posters? I'm curious!A lot of the examples I gave I like the one show, but have never cared for the other show. For Soleil Moon Frye, I had never seen Punky Brewster until Peacock launched this year, instantly became a fan. Sabrina I like the high school/ABC era a lot more than the college/WB era. Roxie, Morgan, and the guy who lived with them and Sabrina were a lot less likable than Jenny, Valerie, and Libby. (Libby was mean but that part was acted well.) The Facts of Life was a good show its first seven seasons when Charlotte Rae was the star. But Cloris Leachman was a poor replacement when Charlotte left, the girls were old enough to be on their own then with Blair and Jo all grown. Her senile grandma character on Raising Hope was played really well though. I am a Without a Trace fan, but Steven Weber's character was someone who had it in for Jack Malone. Fortunately that arc didn't last long. Dianne Wiest was funny on Life in Pieces, but unlikable on Law and Order. Fred Dalton Thompson and Steven Hill I much preferred in the DA role there. Will Estes's 7th Heaven role was not someone I cared for. But he is integral to Blue Bloods.

I've never liked actress Nancy Travis on any sitcom I've seen her in. Except I like her as Vanessa on Last Man Standing, I actually think she's got good chemistry with Tim Allen who plays her husband Mike on the show. I can't explain it, maybe it's the writing and the character I don't know. Because other than Last Man Standing I've always thought she was annoying and uninteresting in anything else I've seen her in.

In my opinion, I think Bob Newhart was great in both The Bob Newhart Show & Newhart than he was in Bob & George and Leo

I loved Bob Newhart on both of his shows but especially Newhart.

Marcia Cross - Love her on Melrose Place and Desperate Housewives. She gets to show off her acting abilities in these shows. Everwood and Quantico she was boring.

Bea Arthur - Love her on Maude. She was perfect. I can't stand her on The Golden Girls. She was too mean and a lot of times it was unnecessary.

Betty White - Like her on Mama's Family and Hot in Cleveland. I don't care for her overrated character on The Golden Girls. She was too stupid a lot of times.

Christina Applegate - Up All Night is the only show of hers I didn't like. It wasn't funny. Everything else she did was great.

Tiffani Amber Thiessen - I like her in 90210. I hate Saved By The Bell.

Shannen Doherty - I like her on Charmed. I didn't like her on 90210.

like- Big Sky. Not much new has premiered on the scripted side this season. But Big Sky is worth watching.
dislike- Pitch, Under the Dome. Pitch was such a mediocre show, ridiculous how many writers and commenters at TVLine wanted a remake of it. Under the Dome was great the first two seasons. But the writers destroyed it in season 3 with Kylie and Marg Helgenberger's additions.

I saw Norma Rae and I didn't like it.

I liked David Ogden Stiers in M.A.S.H. as Major Charles Winchester. But I've absolutely hated him in everything else I've ever watched him in. And that's saying something because I'm sure I haven't seen every movie or TV show he ever did.

No, I haven't seen that one. His guest starring role in an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, while it wasn't terrible, was just OK. He played an alien scientist who came aboard the Enterprise to conduct an experiment he hopes will save his home planet. In a bit of a tribute to his work on M.A.S.H., there's a blink and you'll miss it moment where a shot of a computer screen is shown with a bunch of text, and in part of a code on the screen is the number 4077. Which as we all know was the number of the M.A.S.H. unit on the series.

What about The Bill Cosby Show and I Spy? It would be nice if Bill Cosby was one of the new sitcoms coming to Antenna TV in September. But with his image being forever tainted now, they probably don't think the ratings would be worth it.
