How the hell did I forget that one?

 

[hoser1970]

I voted for MASH, but then others mentioned Night Court and WKRP, both of which I had forgotten about but were absolutely hilarious!

 

[hungry]

Don't forget about both of the Newhart shows! They were great!

 

[Ref]

Barney Miller (bizarre, sick & twisted writiers - good call Shack)

Get A Life (too fucking warped)

Beverly Hillbillies (under the influence, it's a classic)

Family Affair (I love masturbating to Cissy when she is wearing a wide lapel top)

Leave it to Beaver (Who hasn't scored a woody over Miss Canfield or even June)

All in the Family (Imagine what it would have done with today's politically correct politeness...)

ALF (reminded me of my brother)

Barney Miller (bizarre, sick & twisted writiers - good call Shack)

My favorite scene in Barney Miller was when this old guy was talking to Dietrich about being in prison. He said that one of the inmates was a stool pigeon, and when the other inmates found out, they cut off his ear, and gave it to the warden.

Dietrich says: "That's terrible. What did the warden do?".
Old guy: "He put it with the others.".

Blackadder: Rowen Atkinson ( aka Mr. Bean) one of the funniest brit comedies ever!

PS. I voted for All in the Family. loved that opening song.

Facts of life.

- An all girl school lez fest. Plus Tootie got huge tits by the third season.

What isn't there to love?

The incredible hulk just can't compare.

I voted "other" for WKRP. The greatest comedy of all time.

MASH would be my second pick.

 

[HafDun]

WKRP definately belongs in the top ten of all time

Six Feet Under

Current side splitter has got to be Boston Legal. Spader & Shatner rock

 

[shack]

Leave it to Beaver (Who hasn't scored a woody over Miss Canfield or even June)

I think it was Miss Landers. I also saw her in an episode of Twilight Zone where Wally Cox was wooing her (unsuccessfully, of course).

My favourite episode is where they all get high on grass brownies.

Fish is jumping across rooftops and Yamana had some great lines. "Mooshie. Mooshie. Mooshie." and "Barney, Barney, Barney, your mother's from Killarney." I guess those lines are only funny when you hear Jack Soo delivering them.

 

[Bobzilla]

Other: toss up between WKRP & Soap.

IMO, some of the choices in the poll could win for Worst Sitcoms ever

Or, those lines are only funny if you're high on grass brownies.

When real New York detectives are asked which TV show is most like their real jobs, most say Barney Miller. The situations are exaggerated for comic effect, of course, but the concept of having most of their cases easily solved by finding compromises between the complainant and the alleged perpetrator, without going any further into the legal system, was most like the truth.

I missed Trailer Park Boys on my list, but I'm surprised that no one has mentioned The Job, with Denis Leary.

That reminds me....anyone remember Bizarre with John Byner? Super Dave Osbourne got his start there. The show was filmed in Canada (CTV) but was on cable in the U.S. Lots of hotties in the skits!

Remember that fer sure. Super Dave and ..... Fuji.
