The 30 Greatest TV Sitcoms of ALL TIME

[USATVFAN]

After thinking all week and doing lots of Researching these are in my opinion what I consider The 25 Greatest Television Sitcoms of all Time. This is NOT My Favorite TV Show list(My 2 Favorite Shows are Three's Company and Friends but you will notice they are not in the top Ten on this list) or not the Best TV Shows on Television List but what I think Stands out and are the 30 Greatest TV Sitcoms of All Time. When I made my list I included Quality, Writing, Characters, Popularity etc. I DID NOT Include Ratings, Awards, Longevity etc. or anything like that as I think including that is a little to biased.

The 30 Greatest TV Sitcoms of ALL-TIME:
1. I Love Lucy
2. All in The Family
3. Seinfeld
4. Cheers
5. M*A*S*H
6. The Honeymooners
7. The Mary Tyler Moore Show
8. The Dick Van Dyke Show
9. Fraiser
10. Roseanne
11. Everybody Loves Raymond
12. The Bob Newhart Show
13. The Cosby Show
14. The Andy Griffin show
15. Leave it To Beaver
16. Three’s Company
17. Happy Days
18. Maude
19. Friends
20. The Wonder Years
21. The Jeffersons
22. Laverne & Shirley
23. The Danny Thomas Show/Make Room for Daddy
24. Hazel
25. The Golden Girls
26. My Three Sons
27. Taxi
28. Bewitched
29. Rhoda

Hmm, I admire your courage in compiling this; it's an almost impossible task, but I bet it was fun trying. It's so subjective no one can say you're "right or wrong"...but I'll add some thoughts anyway.

Omissions: "Leave it to Beaver" would have to make my list, as would "WKRP in Cincinnati" and "The Odd Couple".

Deletions: I'd get rid of "Murphy Brown", "Hazel" and "Wonder Years".

Also, there's some great Britcoms out there, but I guess you'd have to make a separate list for those.

Overall, great list!

Thanks! The Top 10-15 was pretty easy to put on a list. After that it got a littler Harder. after I made this list I realize that I should should put Leave it to Beaver in the Top 20 somewhere because it is a Classic!

To be honest I have never watched a British A Sitcom, I have seen snippets and pieces of them on YouTube but I have never watched a Whole Epiodes of a British Show.
