I would put The Dick Van Dyke Show in the #1 slot. (its my personal favorite sitcom pre-1970, actually.... pre-1979)

Although its a good list overall.
I like all of those with the exception of those I haven't seen....

The Patty Duke Show
The Donna Reed Show


And.... I think I Dream of Jeannie would make it over The Monkees.... but if this is just your opinion, then its fine.

Yeah, it's just my opinion. Otherwise, I'd have "I Love Lucy" first. Dick Van Dyke would be number 3, right behind The Honeymooners (2).

If I had a couple more spots, I would have had "I Dream of Jeanie" and "Hogan's Heroes."

One sane man surrounded by idiots. That's the main reason I like this show. Oliver Wendell Douglas couldn't stand life in the big city and moved his wife, Lisa and himself to Hooterville to live on a farm.

MTM was from the 70's. This list is just 50's and 60's. As for IDOJ, that would be 21 or 22.
