Lots of favorites from this time but I'd say the main ones are :
 Alice All in the family Brady Bunch One day at a time Rhoda Sanford & Son Worst? To me none were really THAT bad than!  I really never liked WKRP too much though!

I have not seen Rhoda but several people on this board have mentioned preferring it to The Mary Tyler Moore Show. I myself prefer Lou Grant to the original, but it seems hard to think that Rhoda would be on the same level. I am not a big fan of Rhoda's though when she was on Mary Tyler Moore, the best parts there were the newsroom with Ted, Murray, and Lou. I also don't like it taking a dim view of marriage and forcing her husband off the show.
