Sitcom Families - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I dunno if this is a thread yet, but I would like to know what TV Sitcoms have nuclear families and how many are in the family, for example...

The Kaniskis, "Gimme a Break"-4
The Taylors, "Home Improvement"-5
The Wilkinsons, "Malcolm in the Middle"-6

I thought of having a sketch for a TV Show that I'd like to make called "Sitcom Family Feud". I made a family up to compete against these families and the ghost of Richard Dawson is the host.

Thanks for the sitcom families, I just made a "Sitcom Family Feud" on the Fan Fiction Page here with the Banks (Including Will Smith) from "Fresh Prince" and The Warners, a family I made-up for a TV Show I'd like to make called "Bertstown".

I hope you like it!

That sounds interesting. I'll have to go look for it.
