I know that "Saved by the Bell" is an E/I sitcom but what are some others?

something · 12-09-2014, 08:56 AM

A lot of Disney Channel ones.

wait - how the hell is Saved By The Bell educational?

as a demonstration of what NOT to do when writing for sitcoms?!?

lol- well, I think Saved By the Bell is a great example of sitcom writing, since it's one of my favorite shows- but that's okay if you don't like it.

The writing on Saved By The Bell is OK, but it's no Cheers or Frasier (seasons 1-7).

i'm not saying that I don't like the show, just that the writing was always a little goofy

When it came to SBTB I doubt you were ever going to hear "And the Emmy goes to...."

Not sitcoms but World Harvest Television has labeled The Lone Ranger & Daniel Boone as E/I programming. They may still do but I'm not sure.

Still can't figure out how they can get away with calling SbtB E/I.

Maybe the sequel, "The College Years", is good education about how not to do a sequel?
