EDIT:

these are the 3 most overplayed sitcoms on cable and local syndication....
in terms of quality (not taking into effect what overplaying has done to it).... which show is best?

Ant-Lox · 03-21-2004, 12:13 PM

Roseanne, Because Full house is always on ABCFamily and The Cosby show will NEVER leave Nick at nite.

I voted in terms of quality.... before overplaying it destroyed it.... and voted for TCS.

Ant-Lox · 03-21-2004, 12:22 PM

Yeah Cosby is still a good show, But I need a good 3 months away from it before I like watching it again.

Roseanne. Full House is unrealistic and doesn't hold my attention, and TCS is so overplayed on N@N that it needs to be off all networks for about a year before coming back.

Roseanne. I am sick of it currently (staying away until the next run on NAN) but Cosby really only had 3 great seasons, and Full House was awful IMO

barwars · 03-21-2004, 06:36 PM

I only watch shows occassionally in syndication nowadays.

Im sick of how certain shows are treated.... be that OVERplayed or UNDERplayed....

Theres no show I *have to* watch everyday/everynight.
Not even some of my favorites like Cheers or Frasier....
I just dont bother anymore.

Im holding out for DVDs.

Roseanne is best of those three.

dawsongirl · 03-21-2004, 09:13 PM

Full House.

How would you vote based on your question, which has to do with the show being overplayed, not being of a certain amount of quality.

in terms of not being overplayed.... Full House
although its the worse of the 3.

Maybe I should edit it so it comes off as a question about quality....
because TCS is definately the most overplayed of the 3.

Same here... I haven't watched much since January(only have watched a couple of episodes on Oxygen since then).

Roseanne is my choice.

TVQuack · 03-23-2004, 02:12 PM

Full House was my vote.

Penny Lane · 03-24-2004, 08:49 PM

Roseanne

I vote The Cosby Show. It was in the top 5 in the Nielsens for 7 of its 8 seasons. They rankings for each of its 8 seasons are as follows.

1984-1985: 3
1985-1986: 1
1986-1987: 1
1987-1988: 1
1988-1989: 1
1989-1990: 2
1990-1991: 5
1991-1992: 16

I have seen some episodes and I sort of liked it but it isn't a show that I would be interested in watching even if it wasn't overplayed. I chose this show, though, because it did well in the Nielson's and was easily the highest rated show of the late 1980s.

View Poll Results: Which is the best overplayed show?
The Cosby Show	6	22.22%
Roseanne	14	51.85%
Full House	7	25.93%
