Small Wonder was a cute show. I'm sick and tired of people bashing it.

The first season Small Wonder DVD set had some intelligent, interesting commentaries, something you can't say for some other sitcoms, like That Girl.

I'd like to see seasons 3 and 4 on DVD.

I have only seen two of them, Two Broke Girls and Mulaney. I think Mulaney could have worked if it was given more time. But it was trying to be another Seinfeld and it didnt work.

Two Broke Girls was very crude, too crude for me but the show lasted six years. I knew someone who loved the show. The blonde girl was gorgeous and it gave Garrett Morris one last good payday.

How did Community not make this list? That was the worst sitcom ever made. Or Gilligan's Island?

2 Broke Girls was typical CBS gutter so-called humor. It fit the old Newton Minnow comment about a "vast wasteland."

I've only seen two of these shows. I hated 2 Broke Girls. I might have seen about three episodes and that was too many. As for My Mother The Car, I might have seen about five episodes of that and yes, it's terrible. But I'd almost always rather watch an old bad show than a new bad show.

I agree 2 Broke Girls is one of the worst sitcoms ever made. But then, so are Two and a Half Men and Married with Children. Only difference with Two and a Half Men is being male led instead of female led on 2 Broke Girls. Garbage like Married with Children started eroding the standards of network TV, both making FOX a lousy network usually for comedies and paving the way for super crude/sleazy shows like the other two outside of FOX.
The acting on Small Wonder was bad, but still a fun show to watch. I liked Dog With a Blog some. Work It was a terrible concept, but then so was Bosom Buddies. I agree Veronica's Closet was lousy, but a bit surprising it made a worst list like this with the Emmy Kirstie Alley won. I was looking forward to Cavemen, but the pilot was awful and I didn't come back for episode two.

How did Gilligan's Island not make this list? Gilligan's Island is highly regarded as one of TV's best classics, most wouldn't put it on a worst list. A lot of Gilligan's Island fans think cancelling after season 3 was premature. That was just the right amount though since Tina Louise refused to come back for a potential season 4 and recasting Ginger would have been a bad move.

The first season Small Wonder DVD set had some intelligent, interesting commentaries, something you can't say for some other sitcoms, like That Girl. That Girl is still a lot better than Small Wonder though, for the actual show's quality.

It's not a bad show, but it's remembered as a classic for all the wrong reasons. It was great "comfort TV" and is very nostalgic, so that's why people treasure it, not because it was really good.

That Girl is still a lot better than Small Wonder though, for the actual show's quality.

That Girl had an actual budget. Small Wonder had next to none. I guess that's why it gets bashed so much, because of those cheesy special effects.

I didn't see Working it but it shows that straight men in drag isn't funny anymore. Small Wonder was the only show I saw but I'm glad didn't see the other shows on this list.

That Girl is still a lot better than Small Wonder though, for the actual show's quality.

Oh, just to keep the record straight, absolutely! It was a great show, but Marlo's DVD commentaries were really sub par, while Marla Pennington's, Dick Christie's, snd Jerry Supiran's Small Wonder commentaries were enjoyable and informative.

The special effects on SW were pretty good IMO, esp. for the time period, and the limitations of shooting on videotape.

What I remember as really bad were attempts at outdoor scenery shots. Outdoor scenery just doesn't work out well on the soundstage, particularly on a multi-cam videotaped show. So backyard scenes looked ultra-hokey, but the worst I remember was a fishing trip scene. Class F for failure.

Most of the time multi-cam sitcoms don't attempt outdoor scenes--if they find it necessary, the ones with the budget will go on location, such as the Everybody Loves Raymond trip to Italy.

SW was a fun show with a shoestring budget, which was popular enough at the tine, to last four seasons.

I’m unable to watch the video now, but I was wondering why they put 2 Broke Girls on their list.

It wasn’t an outright flop and was moderately successful when compared to most others listed here like Cavemen, Homeboys, Baby Bob…

About what I expected to find on a list like this. Still believe #1 was a stupid joke and was never meant to be a real tv series. Emeril, Baby Talk and The Ropers could have been dishonorable mentions.

Ask Harriet (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ask_Harriet), which starred Anthony Tyler Quinn (AKA Mr. Turner on Boy Meets World), was another (https://www.deseret.com/1998/1/3/19355779/ask-harriet-is-offensive-and-unfunny) short-lived post-Bosom Buddies drag sitcom.

“Living Dolls” should have been on the list. I watched the final episode on YouTube a few days ago and it was painful. Only one lone man in the audience laughed throughout the entire episode.

The Ropers get too much hate. 😡

The Ropers get too much hate. ��

Instead of really being the Ropers show, it seem like every episode was more focused on Jeffery Tambor's character and his family. The Ropers were relegated to just being the comic relief, which was already similar to their role on Threes Company.

It was also dirty of the Threes Company producers to not let Norman Fell and Audra Lindley come back to the show when the spinoff failed.

I think that it's already been addressed, but Norman Fell did not want to do a spin-off at first. He quite understandably, enjoyed the security of already being on a hit TV show such as Three's Company. But by the time that The Ropers was canceled, there was little point in bringing Stanley and Helen back since Don Knotts as Ralph Furley had by that point, proven to be a capable enough of a replacement. Plus, the producers could only serve the salary of one person instead of the salary of two in Fell and Audra Lindley.

<--------- Gilligan's Island? Absolutely not!

How is Joey worse than Homeboys in Outer Space, WatchMojo..?

Maybe it's just me but Joey, Harry and the Hendersons, and That 80s Show weren't irredeemably awful as some of the other stuff on this list.

I always thought that the Mothers-in-law was fairly cringeworthy. It has been said that the show got better into the middle of the first season, but all that yelling wore me out that I couldn't get past the 4th episode.

That's my list and I'm sticking to it.
1,2,3,12, 21,22,23,25 and 30 are the ones I wished I never saw. Great list.

Strangely, My Mother the Car might be the most watchable show on that initial list, IMHO. (Not that it's good....).

2 Broke Girls is one of the most awful things that ever happened to television.

(As for the other lists - Gilligan's Island truly is a genius live-action cartoon with an outstanding cast -- and what's wrong with The Ghost and Mrs. Muir or My World and Welcome to It? - both charming!)

Humor has changed through the years, so I don't it's fair to evaluate shows from the past while using current criteria.

Having said that, certain shows haven't aged well (i.e. - Gilligan's Island).

I do agree, though, with many people here - 2 Broke Girls was one the worst shows ever.

The other one on my list is one that no one hasn't mentioned - How I Met Your Mother. I've never understood how that one was ever considered to be a sitcom. It was distinctly unfunny.

What exactly makes a "bad" sitcom "bad" in the first place? Does for instance, most so-called "bad comedy" come from stale gags, shallow characters, forced punchlines, jokes based on stereotypes, and/or moments that are more to shock than amuse?

Or even worse, when you can't at all be able to still see them and recognize the attempts at humor even if they ultimately fall flat on their face. So with that, it could become honestly impossible to see what the jokes are even supposed to be. Especially if you combine what I just listed outdated scripts, a rushed production schedule, and the actors clearly having little time to develop any sense of delivery or timing with their scenes.
