Well, consider that it was 20th out of ALL sitcoms... I mean, they haven't pulled out The Dick Van Dyke Show, Mary Tyler Moore, All in the Family... So, I guess that's small compensation...

By the way, Charlotte Rae is in the Diff'rent Strokes section also (at the 1/2 way point of the show) --- it was just on.

Default I'm so offended!

I'm so offended that FOL was only at 20! Most of the shows who did better really sucked especially WKRP In Cincinnati, I hated that show growing up and Three's Company #1 I DON'T THINK SO!

I Know! NUMBER 20! I was pissed, i was sure it would be ranked higher then that. And I can't believe that Brady Bunch and Gilligans Island won over Facts of Life for "favorite theme song". Its gonna rerun a lot this week I think, so for those of you who missed it, you will be able to see it at some point.

yeah and if you dont get E! dont worry because you didnt miss much. The people who picked the top 20 were probably high or drunk.

Rank was really bad. It was a waste of my time. I'm gonna go on that E! Message Board (or wherever they said) and tell them what I think about their ranking!

I think it's good that FOL got ranked 20 on a list for Guilty Pleasures: Sitcoms that we Secretly love simply due to the fact that you should'nt feel guilty at all for loving this show. It's a superior show that no one should be ashamed of loving. That's why shows like Mary Tyler Moore and I Love Lucy were not on the list while shows like Busom Buddies and Saved by the Bell were. So I think that being 20 on a list of guilty pleasures is a hell of a lot better than being number 1 on that list(even though I happen to love Three's Company).
