What was your favorite ABC sitcom from the 1990s??

Mine is most definitely Coach, followed by Roseanne, Home Improvement, Ellen, Boy Meets World, Family Matters, Step by Step and The Drew Carey Show.

I'll go with Roseanne at least for the first 5 seasons or so of the 90's.

First up has to be "Ellen". Followed closely by "Boy Meets World".

spunkygirl · 04-24-2005, 12:54 PM

Boy Meets World, Wings, Home Improvement, Two Guys and a Girl, Sabrina the Teenage Witch

L&OFan4Eva · 04-24-2005, 12:58 PM

Boy Meets World then Coach then Grace Under Fire then Home Improvement then Life's Work

Brent88 · 04-24-2005, 01:02 PM

Family Matters, followed closely by Roseanne(NOT the final seasons though on either, especially Roseanne).

Boy Meets World

I'll have to go with The Wonder Years, even though it's considered by many to be a drama. Granted, Wayne made it a comedy!

Honorable mention goes to Family Matters, Home Improvement, and Perfect Strangers.

I HATED TGIF

WOOT! Step by Step! Followed by Full House and Family Matters. I don't remember what else was on ABC in the 90s except for those TGIF shows.

Joker85 · 04-24-2005, 05:45 PM

Home Improvement and Ellen

It's amazing how good ABC was during this time period. They did have some losers pop-up for a season or two here and there, but they also churned out some really amazing stuff. I don't think any network has ever put out that many good sitcoms in succession and had them all have such successful runs.

Boy Meets World was probably the best, in my opinion, though I loved Full House (I'm learning to love the late 80s episodes more than the others, though), Step by Step, Family Matters (up until about season seven), Home Improvement (I really feel this show is underappreciated), Roseanne, and Ellen (up until she came out and the show got completely not funny). There several others I really enjoyed as well but those come to me right now.

Man I miss 1990s ABC.

No love for Coach or The Drew Carey Show??

I would've asked about Home Improvement, but I remember you saying you hated it.
