4. Welcome Back, Kotter
5. Happy Days
6. M*A*S*H

I would really like to see Britcom Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em, as it stars Michael Crawford, my all-time favorite singer. I would also like to see Angie, good cast with Doris Roberts and Debralee Scott. What I saw of Taxi was quality, but it was only 2 episodes so not enough yet to put it as a favorite.
