The Little House on the Prairie

I used to really like Seinfeld a lot, then I got bored. But I do remember quite enjoying it for a while.
Frasier was great. Can't believe I forgot that one.
Two and a Half Men was funny AF until they hired Ashton Kutcher. That totally ruined the whole show. The chemistry wasn't there, the comedy wasn't there, the improv wasn't there, and it also didn't come across as believable (a stranger walking out of the ocean letting him live there just cuz? At least with Charlie, it made sense). I hated the way they ended it with Charlie's "death" because it made zero sense! Extremely funny series!
Malcolm in the Middle - I got such a kick out of that one!
Home Improvement - I also really liked that. Tim Allen could riff with the best, and everything felt really natural.
Roseanne was very funny. I think she set a lot of benchmarks.
Some of my absolute favourites to this day are:
Are You Being Served
Keeping Up Appearances
Waiting for God
Vicar of Dibley
Absolutely Fabulous

Absolutely! But I thought I mentioned it elsewhere up higher in a previous post?
Yeah, Coupling, the British version. I could rely on Coupling to make me laugh out loud, sometimes until it hurt.

"The BOUQUET residence. The lady of the house speaking……Do I sound like a Chinese take-away?!"
Poor Richard. Poor Sheridan. But at least he had Tarquin, lol.
I thought Onslow and Daisy were the happiest of the bunch!
I remember Onslow telling Rose she needs to find a steady bloke,…give her hormones a chance to settle. lol

True. Hyacinth could make anyone's ears bleed. Except for the Major (as he'd chase her through his greenhouse!)
Violet was oblivious to everything. Remember Bruce dressing up like a jockey? Or was it his secretary? lol
The name Onslow will forever remind me of the one and only Onslow now.

Not really. Remember when Richard tried to explain, and he reminded Hyacinth that Sheridan is majoring in needlepoint ("Oh but he's so artistic!")…and doesn't it ever bother you that he doesn't have a girlfriend ("He told me no girls while he's in college, besides, he has his lovely friend Tarquin to keep him company….they make their own curtains!")
Honestly I think she wouldn't be able to truly process it.
Bruce used to dress up in Violet's clothes, and Hyacinth kept telling her that she simply must tell Bruce to give them back (and Richard said, "Oh not the beige paint suit, he doesn't look good in the beige pantsuit!")
I thought it was so funny how Richard knew it all and just let Hyacinth live in her own little world.
Good ol' Violet and Bruce: with a sauna, a swimming pool and room for a pony! lol
Daddy was a hoot as well. Getting busted by the police riding his bike following the milk lady, in his
all-togethers!

Married With Children
Glad somebody finally mentioned that one. IMHO one of the funniest sitcoms ever.
Barney Miller
was pretty funny, too. Don't believe that's been mentioned yet. Nor
Gilligan's Island

The Mary Tyler Moore Show is my favorite sitcom, but that's for a whole lot of reasons. It's the warmest tv show I can think of.
I love Three's Company when Chrissie and the Ropers were on it for the first three seasons. Helen was my favorite character and I liked Stanley, too. I didn't have the stomach for Don Knotts. He was over the top. And Chrissie was just too dumb in the end.
I only saw a few episodes of Seinfeld. It was funny, but the characters were not likable.
