why isn't The Jeffersons popular anymore?
I see All In The Family is still widely popular.
As is, Good Times & Sanford And Son. The Jefferson's used to be popular back in the day. Question being, why do people seem to not like it anymore? |

1. The Jeffersons 2. Maude 3. Sanford & Son 4. All in the Family 5. Good Times 6. One Day At A Time |

I love The Jeffersons. It's my favorite Norman Lear sitcom but I like all his others too.

Why do you think it isn't popular. Whether on TV Land or black-centered networks, it's usually been somewhere on TV in the last decade or so. Compare this to "Maude" or "One Day..", which pretty much disappeared for the last two decades until Antenna TV put them on.

And I'll also agree with the above post that said "One Day" and "Maude" are more less popular today than "Jeffersons". |

It isn't popular anymore, because people don't have any taste.

I caught an episode of the Jeffersons recently, I forgot how funny it was. It really does hold up well.

I think TVfactfan is the biggest Jefferson fan ever!
I like the Jefferson's too! I've always thought most people still seemed to like it! |

I'd say mine are: 1- One day at a time 2- Sanford & Son 3- Good Times 4- The Jefferson's 5- All in the Family 6- Maude But than it depends on the ep. too!! And like with All in the Family, that would be higher up on the list, but I got burned out on it watching it so much in reruns for years! |

The best sitcom spin-off of all time.
