The Brady Bunch
Family Matters
Leave It To Beaver
Perfect Strangers
The Wonder Years
(Even though it was more of a drama, it still had its funny elements, especially Wayne!)

I'd list more, but I was only asked for five.

Default clarification?

do you mean any five shows (including ones that are already considered classic like "I Love Lucy") or do you mean five relatively recent shows that aren't considered classic at the moment?

I Love Lucy
All in the Family
The Honeymooners
The Dick Van Dyke Show
The Andy Griffith Show

I don't even like all those shows but they deserve that title

Close are: Mary Tyler Moore, M*A*S*H, Cheers, and Bewitched

Seinfeld (A No-Brainer)
The Larry Sanders Show (It's a great show!)
Cheers (Pretty much a no-brainer)
Mash (although I hate it)
The Cosby Show (although many like myself are sick of it)

In my opinion these are the only sitcoms who should have the right to be called "classic:"

I Love Lucy
All In The Family
Bewitched
I Dream of Jeannie
M*A*S*H
The Brady Bunch
Friends
Seinfeld
