Alice
All in the Family
The Bob Newhart Show
The Brady Bunch
The Jeffersons
Laverne & Shirley
Maude
One Day at a Time
Sanford and Son
Three's Company

Since we only get these ten, here are my choices:

1. Laverne and Shirley
2. Three's Company
3. Alice
4. The Brady Bunch
5. The Jeffersons
6. One Day at a Time

I've never seen a full episode of Maude, and only remember Sanford and Son, The Bob Newhart Show, and All in the Family from seeing them as a child, so I can't really rank them.
