Default Who were your favourite tv families?

*The Cosbys are my all time favourites-entertaining,and close knit.
*The Brady's of course.
*The Arnolds because they weren't perfect.
*The Micelli/Bower family.
*The Bundy's-Even if they were terribly disfunctional

I like these families because they were realistic and experienced situations my family has experienced in past times.
With that said,what tv families are everyone else's favourite?

The Keaton's - I thought Steven and Elyse were the Rob and Laura Petrie of the 80's. Their relationship was truly genuine and real. Not only were they husband and wife but they were best friends. You can tell by the love and affection they had for each other.

The Petrie's - Rob and Laura set the standard of family comedies and their relationship was beautiful.

The Evans' (Good Times) - In their struggles James and Florida manage to maintain a strong family bond between them and their children. Plenty of love in that apartment.

The Bunker's - In spite of Archie's bigotry and attitude he deeply love the two women in his life that was Edith and Gloria.

The Conners because they seemed to be the most real family

The Matthews Family-Always there for each other no matter what and they made you want to be part of their family

The Hackett Family-A bit dysfunctional but that's what made them so lovable

The Micelli/Bower/Robinson Family-3 Families in one, the family reunions will never be boring

The Brady's-So fun, who wouldn't want to be part of that

The Seavers-Parents that were always willing to listen to problems no matter what, gave unconditional love and support

I believe that applies to the Bower/Micelli/Robinson family too.

NOTHING's ever boring as long as Mona's around! I love her to death hehe.

And about the Hacketts, I was going to add them, but decided against it since I thought this thread was more about families that had young kids (Though I guess Brian could count as a big kid!).
