Angry You popular & yet overrated sitcom lovers all make me SICK!!!

I gotta say is that why do you people love the popular & yet overrated sitcoms on the U.S. Cable & Network T.V. from September 21, 2003-present? Let me tell you something. I DON'T!!! All you people wanna see is Friends, The Cosby Show, Cheers, Fraiser, Full House, Roseanne, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Growing Pains, Who's The Boss?, Seinfeld, The Drew Carey Show, Home Improvement, Will & Grace, That 70s Show, The King & Queens, Becker, Cybill, Married With Children, A Different World, Lizzie McGuire, Saved By The Bell, Mama's Family, & all the 50s, 60s, 70s & other shows that are still airing over & over again. But what about shows like Coach, So Little Time, Major Dad, Perfect Strangers, Head of The Class, Just The Ten of Us, Mr. Belvedere, Kate & Allie, Charles In Charge, Amen, Gimme A Break, Webster, ALF, Silver Spoons, It's Your Move, Small Wonder, The New Gidget, The cool short-lived 80s sitcoms, the cool syndicated MCA TV sitcoms from 1985-1991, & especially my all-time favorite sitcom "Valerie/The Hogan Family"?

MichaelLutton do you like the underrated or the overrated? I liked the underrated in a matter of respect. And what about you?

Hold on, there are a few of us out here who do like those underrated shows too, ya know.

Voyagers! was one of my favorites.. sure don't hear anyone talking about it much, if ever. Then again, it didn't last very long anyway.

I could give a crap if it's overrated or underrated. If it's funny, I'll watch it.

Nicely said. BD. I like underrated shows as well, but they're underrated, which means that people don't talk about them much, which is why they're not discussed.

I love Less Than Perfect and George Lopez, two ofthe most underrated shows on tv today, IMHO.

completely agreed.


And have the shows you listed as "underrated" and "shortlived" arent shortlived or underrated.
Its just that networks decide not to show them.
Its not our fault.

Ok, I guess I have to agree with you . Too many sitcoms are overplayed. I would love to see more "Coach", "The Hogan Family","Silver Spoons" , "The Ghost and Mrs. Muir", "Murphy Brown", Newhart" and several others that have gone by the wayside.Enough Cosby already!

greenlaser5555 has a very valid point. I agree with him (or her). They should play more of those sitcoms especially The Hogan Family and Mr. Belvedere. I would have to say that Who's the Boss? and Growing Pains are not overplayed, but soon Who's the Boss? will be, thanks to everyone's favorite network, Nick at Nite.

Let's see if we can turn this into a good thread and make our own list of sitcoms we believe are over rated. For example, my list:

- Sienfield
- The Cosby Show
- M*A*S*H
- Rosanne

Personally I think the above shows are more over rated than they should be. I'm not saying they are bad shows but I do think they aren't as great as the hype surrounding them makes out.
