” Bob Newhart’s second major sitcom series -at the Stratford Inn in Vermont- more than the first ‘shrink’ “
The last episode was genius, where he woke up in bed with Suzanne Pleshette’s character from the first series, and it had all been a dream!
I didn’t get where I am today without knowing that the 70s version of “The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin” was amazing. Leonard Rossiter did a terrific job in that one.
My parents wouldn't let me watch that when I was little.
Sanford and Son for a close first.
The fall and rise of Reginald Perrin.
C.J. was great in his own rights as Perrin’s boss.
Newhart on Big Bang Theory is great, too.
Better than Wil Wheaton on BBT, anyway.
Drew Carrey show was VASTLY underrated.
It is stunning the amount of variety in them
I couldn’t watch Married w/ Children.
The wife reminded me of my first wife. Makes my hair stand on end thinking about it.
One I haven’t seen mentioned..Are You Being Served.
I didn't remember her name, but I do remember that the ratings were actually higher after her call for a boycott.

Rakolta — who has since formed Americans for Responsible Television, a media watchdog organization that publishes a monthly newsletter for 2,000 subscribers — concedes that her campaign brought more publicity to Married and probably more viewers. ”I’m still waiting for that fruit basket from Fox,” she says.
Any list that leaves off The Beverly Hillbillies is not worth reading.
They must’ve thought Maynard was a bad influence.
The only one on the list that I watched, every episode, is Married With Children.
The rest was uninteresting or unfunny at best.
My own list:
Dick Van Dyke Show
Barney Miller
Frasier
Becker (I could take or leave Cheers)
Home Improvement
Married With Children
Unhappily Ever After
Bob Newhart (BOTH!!)
Carol Burnett
Sanford and Son
“Drew Carrey show was VASTLY underrated.”
OOOOHHH, when he had the guitar player tryouts for his band!
Slash, Roy Clark, and of course Joe Walsh, who got the job.
No idea. But...I had two twin cousins, Caroline and Marilyn. When their mom wanted one of them but didn’t care which, she’d yell “Aroline!”, and which ever one showed up, that was who she was calling!
LOL - I was rolling on the floor the first time that episode aired!!
“W...K...Rrrrrr...............P! (while the group almost falls over waiting in anticipation for the last letter)
Also “They’re hitting the ground like sacks of wet cement!!!...People are scattering ... ONE JUST WENT THROUGH THAT CAR’s ROOF ... Oh the humanity”...
Me too. I loved “The Innkeepers” and the dinner party one with Niles bird.
