Yea I can't go with that list. I can't get all the AD love. AITF, I Love Lucy and Cheers are ranked too low. And what is Spaced?

This list is hilarious to me but I guess some people would agree with it. Thats the beauty of opinions. These lists always crack me up because if I made a top 15 sitcoms list it would be nothing like this.

Here's my top 15 sitcoms:
1. I Love Lucy
2. Mama's Family
3. Designing Women
4. The Golden Girls
5. Will & Grace
6. Green Acres
7. Petticoat Junction
8. The Facts of Life
9. All in the Family
10. The Beverly Hillbillies
11. The Andy Griffith Show
12. There's Company
13. The Jeffersons
14. Mr. Belvedere
15. Murphy Brown

Some people would call my list crazy, but then again, some people call me crazy.

In no particular order (Except the first one, which is my all-time funniest).

Get Smart
Bewitched
I Dream of Jeannie
My Three Sons
Leave it to Beaver
I Love Lucy
Family Affair
The Courtship of Eddie's Father
The Ghost and Mrs. Muir
Nanny and the Professor
The Beverly Hillbillies
Green Acres
Dennis the Menace
The Flying Nun
Petticoat Junction

Spaced is a great British sitcom starring Simon Pegg (Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, the new Star Trek reboot's Scottie, Run Fatboy Run)

- its pretty obvious that this list was composed by a Brit, who is probably under 30 and never seen the majority of sitcoms produced before 1990.

Any list where four of the top five are current shows is not a serious list.

I'm not blasting new shows, there are plenty I like. But that's just ridiculous.

I don't care for this list either.

I agree with:

1. All in the Family
2. Friends
3. Married...with Children
4. Seinfeld
5. I Love Lucy
6. 30 Rock
7. Cheers

Never watched an episode of:

Arrested Development
Community
The Larry Sanders Show
Modern Family
Spaced

I love current sitcoms, and even I think this list skews far too current. But Cheers, All in the Family, 30 Rock, Arrested Development, The Office UK, I Love Lucy, and Community certainly deserve their places.

Out of that list I like

Seinfeld
Modern Family
Taxi
I Love Lucy
The Larry Sanders Show
Cheers
All in the Family
Married with Children

I don't really agree about where they were placed on the list though.
