My fault it did, but I guess I included it because the show was still in the top 30

Married With Children?
The Andy Griffith Show
Petticoat Junction?

i'm pretty sure i love lucy was popular throughout. beverly hillbillies, full house, cheers, the cosby show, and friends were all still popular when cancelled.

Mr. Television · 07-25-2007, 08:29 AM

I love Lucy, Andy Griffith Show and Seinfeld....the only shows to end their runs ranked # 1.

MWC was never a highly ranked show. Maybe a Highly rated Fox show but not high enough to be in the Neilsens top 20

JulieSomoski · 07-26-2007, 11:29 AM

I wouldn't say Full House, because it's first season ranked #78 of all shows, which is nowhere close to being good, even thought it was in the top 20 for seasons 3-8.

And, some could say Three's Company, even though it wass #31 for its final season. Another good one is Home Improvement. It never left the top 10 for its 8 seasons.

Who's the Boss? was like #60-something in it's last season, but that wasn't the shows fault. It was ABC's fault for moving the show to Saturday nights.

Two that come to mind are The Andy Griffith Show and Home Improvement.

True & it's a shame to think that T.A.G.S. achieved it's only #1 ranking during the 8th and final season. During it's 8 year run, It never dropped below #7 which is still very respectable but never being ranked #1 during it's black & white years is kinda hard to believe.
