Your Favorite Sitcom Listed from One Season and Beyond - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Adamantium · 03-03-2018, 11:06 AM

I don't think the title of this thread explains exactly what I mean. If someone has a better way to word it, let me know and I'll change it.

Getting the idea from a post by Catsrule where he listed his favorite shows with 1, 2 and 3 seasons, I decided to make this topic. Pick ONE show you like (maybe it's your favorite, maybe it's one of your favorites) for each number of seasons, starting with 1 season and going as far as you can (I made it to 12).

Here's mine...

1 Season = The Honeymooners
2 Seasons = Andy Richter Controls the Universe
3 Seasons = Norm
4 Seasons = Chico and the Man
5 Seasons = NewsRadio
6 Seasons = Community
7 Seasons = Boy Meets World
8 Seasons = Wings
9 Seasons = The Office
10 Seasons = Friends
11 Seasons = Cheers
12 Seasons = My Three Sons

1 season: The Torkelsons
2 seasons: The Ropers
3 seasons: Gilligan's Island
4 seasons: ALF
5 seasons: Hazel
6 seasons: Mama's Family
7 seasons: Designing Women
8 seasons: The Andy Griffith Show
9 seasons: The Beverly Hillbillies
10 seasons: Murphy Brown
11 seasons: The Jeffersons
12 seasons: My Theee Sons

If I were choosing shows in general and not just sitcoms:
8 would be "Desperate Housewives" and 12 would be "Murder, She Wrote".
