Nice list but I was hoping they'd be listed in your most favorite order. I need to make one of these lists.......project!

I wanted to put them in favorite order but it's just too hard. Although maybe now that I have 100 shows listed, i can try and rearrange them. But I also figured alphabetical order would be good for someone wanting to see if their favorite show is on my list. They'd know right where to look.

I'll say this - #1 is (and always will be) NewsRadio.

I thought I would be chopping down my list of way over 100. As it turns out, I was close to the end in the 90s and was one shy from having 100. So i went back and added one that I chose not to add originally. Now, however, I realize I skipped "Everybody Loves Raymond." So I'm putting that in the list and taking out "Anything But Love."

The way I did this was I came to Sitcoms Online, clicked on the 1950s and typed up all the shows from that decade I wanted to include. Then I went to the 1960s, then 70s and so on. Then I mixed them all together by putting them in alphabetical order.

There were a few more shows I'd like to squeeze in but since I'm keeping the a 100 favorites, they'll have to be left out.

I have to say "Saved by the Bell: The New Class" is my biggest guilty pleasure. I feel embarrassed to say I like it and yet, I am who I am, and I like what I like, lol. I know it's not a good show but I like it anyways.

It's ok to have guilty pleasures! My biggest one is probably "Mama's Family". Most people give me a hard time about liking this show but I just can't help myself.

"Mama's Family" was a show I remember watching as a kid and thought it was funny. At the time, I was only aware of the Bubba episodes. I had no clue there was a show without him. Years passed and it wasn't until earlier this year that I bought three seasons on DVD and really got to appreciate the show. It's a good show - obviously, it made my list.

Cool! I see that you have listed The Addams Family and The Munsters. Do you like one series more than the other or do you like them equally? I believe in the theory that the world is divided up into Addams Family people and Munsters people.

I am more of a "Munsters" guy. Mostly due to the character of Herman Munster, who is just hysterical to me.

Nothing to feel guilty about- "Saved By the Bell: The New Class" is just a pleasure!
Though the original series is probably always going to be my favorite (and by this, I mean the "Good Morning, Miss Bliss" series and the high school years), I also love "Saved By The Bell: The College Years" and definitely "Saved By The Bell: The New Class"- both are great series! I LOVE watching all of them and I have all of them on DVD.

That's probably true for the most part, I guess- lol. For me personally, I enjoy "The Addams Family" and "The Munsters"- they're both fun shows.
