I do think that Carol Burnett had a little more impact on TV than Mary Tyler Moore. I am shocked to see that James Garner didn't even crack the top 75. If I remember correctly, TV Guide had a similar listing a few years ago, and this is how they listed the top 10: 1. Lucille Ball 2. Johnny Carson 3. Oprah Winfrey 4. Bill Cosby 5. James Garner 6. Carol Burnett 7. Mary Tyler Moore 8. Michael Landon 9. Andy Griffith 10. Dick Van Dyke. Where would you put DVD and MTM on the list of all-time TV greats?
