The Facts of Life- not a fave
Square Pegs- don't remember well
Mama's Family- not a fave
Punky Brewster- don't like
Designing Women- entertaining, though heavyhanded with the political doctrine preaching
Amen- don't like
A Different World- year 1 is dullsville, but after that a great show, better than Cosby Show
Full House- not made for my demographic
The Fresh Prince of Bel Air- OK
Hanging With Mr. Cooper- very good lightweight comedy
Martin- his pissed off manic persona makes me nervous, hard to watch for that reason
Living Single- OK
Saved by the Bell: the College Years- don't remember, but didn't like parent show so probably wouldn't like this
The John Larroquette Show- this show was good except for the constant preaching about AA
The Nanny- OK if I'm at someone else's house, but at home I wouldn't watch this
Ellen- boring before she came out, after she did it became propoganda-unwatchable
Sister Sister- years 1-3 boring, 4 ok, 5 better, 6 the best
The Single Guy- never saw, sounds formulaic and uninspired
Caroline in the City- don't like in the least, annoying characters
Jeff Foxworthy- don't like
Steve Harvey- OK once in a while viewing but not spectacular, year 1 is much better than the rest
Spin City- hate this show, too many wiseacre characters cracking jokes
Almost Perfect- never saw this
Suddenly Susan- hate this show
Sabrina the Teenage Witch- dislike this
Jenny- don't know this one
Fired Up- never saw
Smart Guy- very good, one of my favorites from the 90s
Veronica's Closet- only saw 1 or 2x left no impression
Teen Angel- never saw

EXACTLY!!
They're 2 of the best sitcoms ever. They both make almost ever "top 50" or "top 25" list ever.
So you have no right criticizing jpnoyes for not liking certain shows.

Im not critizing him, just saying I disagree. You have no right critizing me for disagreeing.

Square Pegs! One of the worst shows! Those are fighting words!

I'm just kidding. Though I love Square Pegs I understand how someone might not like it.

I saw it back in 2001 when it was on N@N. SJP was alright, but it is dated. I did question putting it on the list though, so it's certainly not the worst show. Maybe 29 or 30. LOL

The Facts of Life- Back in 2000 or 2001 all N@N seemed to air were episodes of the Facts of Life. Too much of any show isn't good, and N@N killed any chance of me ever wanting to watch FOL again.

Full House- My favorie show. When I was 10. The show doesn't amuse me anymore. I guess I'm too old to enjoy this show.

The Fresh Prince- I liked this show in the 90's. Watching it now, it seems dated.

The Nanny- Two words. Fran Drescher. Do you have to ask?
