Inspired by SitcomsOnline poster CatsRule, who recently posted her own top 100 favorites list, which I found to be an impressive feat, I decided to make my own list but I figured it would be easier to post it in a different format. So what I've done is list my top 5 favourites for each letter of the alphabet except for M which has a top 10 list because there are so many great M shows I couldn't just limit it to 5. Other lists have less than 5 because of weak competition. So here goes:
A 1. The Andy Griffith Show 2. ALF 3. The Adventures Of Ozzie & Harriet 4. The Addams Family 5. All In The Family B 1. The Brady Bunch 2. Bewitched 3. The Beverly Hillbillies 4. Burns & Allen 5. The Bob Cummings Show (Love That Bob) C 1. The Cosby Show 2. Car 54 Where Are You? 3. The Courtship Of Eddie's Father 4. Cheers 5. The Crazy Ones D 1. The Dick Van Dyke Show 2. The Donna Reed Show 3. Dobie Gillis 4. Dennis The Menace 5. Diff'rent Strokes E 1. Everybody Loves Raymond 2. Empty Nest 3. Eight Is Enough 4. Eight Simple Rules F 1. Family Ties 2. Friends 3. Frasier 4. The Facts Of Life 5. Family Affair G 1. Gilligan's Island 2. Green Acres 3. Get Smart 4. The Golden Girls 5. Gomer Pyle USMC H 1. Happy Days 2. The Honeymooners 3. Hogan's Heroes 4. Here's Lucy 5. How I Met Your Mother I 1. I Dream Of Jeannie 2. I Love Lucy J 1. The Jack Benny Program 2. The Jeffersons 3. Julia 4. Just The Ten Of Us K 1. King Of Kensington L 1. Leave It To Beaver 2. Laverne & Shirley 3. The Lucy Show 4. Love American Style 5. The Love Boat M 1. The Monkees 2. My Three Sons 3. Mork & Mindy 4. The Munsters 5. Married With Children 6. The Mary Tyler Moore Show 7. Mad About You 8. Make Room For Daddy 9. McHale's Navy 10. My Favourite Martian N 1. Night Court 2. Newhart 3. The New Leave It To Beaver 4. The New Gidget 5. Ned & Stacey O 1. The Odd Couple 2. One Day At A Time 3. Our Miss Brooks P 1. The Partridge Family 2. The Phil Silvers Show 3. Petticoat Junction 4. Punky Brewster 5. Parker Lewis Can't Love R 1. Rhoda 2. Roseanne 3. Room 222 S 1. The Simpsons 2. Sabrina The Teenage Witch 3. Soap 4. Sanford & Son 5. Square Pegs T 1. Three's Company 2. Two and a Half Men 3. That Girl 4. Taxi 5. The Trouble With Tracy W 1. Welcome Back Kotter 2. WKRP In Cincinnati 3. Webster 4. Wings 5. Will & Grace Q, U, V, X, Y and Z I'm open to suggestions here. Anyone want to try? |

Sticking with sitcoms, this is what I've come up with... titles in bold type are shows I haven't watched in years or have only sampled, so can't say if they'd hold up as laugh-fests for me today (in most cases, they probably wouldn't) --admittedly, I'm more of a casual fan of a fairly limited number of comedy shows, rather than an avid fan of sitcoms in general:
A 1. Addams Family, The 2. Amos & Andy 3. Abbott & Costello Show, The B 1. Barney Miller 2. Black Books 3. Bob Newhart Show, The 4. Bewitched 5. Brady Bunch 6. Beverly Hillbillies, The C 1. Car 54, Where Are You? 2. Cheers 3. Captain Nice F 1. Fawlty Towers G 1. Get a Life! 2. Get Smart 3. Green Acres 4. Gilligan's Island H 1. Honeymooners, The 2. Hogan's Heroes I 1. I'm Dickens... He's Fenster 2. I Dream of Jeannie J 1. Jack Benny Program, The L 1. Leave It to Beaver M 1. Munsters, The 2. My Favorite Martian 3. My Three Sons N 1. Night Court P 1. Police Squad! R 1. Red Dwarf S 1. Simpsons, The 2. Spaced T 1. Taxi W 1. WKRP in Cincinnati |
