vote for two of your favorite sit-com of the 1980's, my vote goes to "The Cosby Show" and "Family Ties"

Smokebutt · 05-12-2002, 04:45 PM

most of my favorite sit-coms are from the 1980's, because it features stuff that has never been used for the past three decades, "Diff'rent Strokes" was a focus a international family,"The Golden Girls" showed us that elder citizens are people too and they also have thoughts and feelings too.
"The Cosby Show" and "Family Ties" are the real fun family sit-coms,because viewers got so tired of families that are running each other's backs ( All In The Family,The Jeffersons), and "Mama's Family" is one of then and so blue-collar comedies were but on hold for 5 years.
and we always welcome people as our friends like "Cheers","Newhart" and "Night Court" and that they need thier very own adventure.

My favorite show from the 1980s is not listed, that being "Perfect Strangers". None of the rest are my cup of tea.
