Most Popular Sitcom of All Time??
Not necessarily the best, or your favorite -- just what do you think is the most popular sitcom of all time??

I'm kinda partial for Seinfeld, Cheers or M*A*S*H, of course I'm only 23, 24 in a week
 so I'm sure it will be different for each generation.MQ |

My Mother the Car
 There always has to be a wise guy, huh? Seriously though, I agree with "I Love Lucy". Of course "The Andy Griffith Show" has a huge fan base, too. I'll still go with "Lucy". |

What do you mean by most popular? Do you mean the most well-known sitcom or the most beloved sitcom? In other words, is this sitcom the one that the most people have heard of or the most people enjoy?
I think the most well-known sitcom is probably I Love Lucy, but it may not be the most beloved. M*A*S*H holds the record for the highest rated television broadcast (non-news, non-sport, non-moon, etc) of all time. That is pretty darn popular and well-known. But in its first season M*A*S*H did not rank in the Top 40; not well-known or popular. Tough question. |

I Love Lucy
even if you have never seen an episode or dislike it... THE SHOW IS STILL POPULAR OVER 50 YEARS LATER. People who were born 30 years after the show ended like the show. |
