I haven't heard anybody mention mamas family, that was a pretty funny show. Funny that you should mention Mama's Family. Vicky Lawrence is doing a live show here in Hutchinson this month. We have tickets already. She was scheduled for Dec. and the tickets were a birthday gift from my daughter but, Vicky got sick and had to re schedule for Jan. Really looking forward to the show! P.S. MASH was one of those shows that my daughter and I always watched together and we are fairly good at trivia for MASH shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I were forced to choose a favorite, it would be a coin toss for Cheers, Frasier and 30 Rock. How did I forget Married With Children?! Rewatched that 3-4 years ago and it was still just as good as when I was a kid. It's just genius. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhighlander Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 Not really Sitcom, but the funniest thing I can recall ever seeing on TV is Tim Conway and Harvey Korman on the Carol Burnett Show. The whole show was incredibly funny, but I would lose it every time Harvey got tickled at Tim, and couldn't keep a straight face. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick A McQuay Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 My all time favorite is, As Time Goes By; hilarious and heartwarming. Lots of good ones after that. Another favorite is 3rd Rock from the Sun. Both have one thing in common, perfect comedic timing. -- Rick M 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made watching John lithgow as a serial killer kinda weird... Dexter! That's the name of the show he was a serial killer in.

woodbutcher74 Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 I can't believe nobody has mentioned The Beverly Hillbillies or Green Acres.

thewoodwhisperer Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 I'm gonna throw in my vote for Seinfeld and Big Bang Theory. Big Bang mostly because I can relate all too well to some of that characters on the show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post wouldwurker Posted January 8, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 No better time for me to mention that the Big Bang theory is the worst sitcom of all time. If Arrested Development counts as a sitcom, it gets my top vote. Seinfeld of course is the yardstick by which to measure all sitcoms. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Capwn Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Hmmm...of all time? Well, probably going to have to run with Seinfeld with that one. Wasn't my favorite, but I think the masses agree that the "show about nothing" probably was the greatest. Honestly, my favorites growing up were Home Improvement (back when Tim Allen was funny) and Everybody Loves Raymond. Brad Garret and Betty White cracked me up.

sjeff70 Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 I agree with 'Cheers' but is it timeless? We'll see what happens with 'Friends'. There has to be a real dynamic amongst your actors to make a great series. 'Three's Company' had it even though the plots were bad. In my opinion even with the bad plots, 'Three's Company' with it being an older show, still has more timeless quality than 'Cheers'. But growing up there was nothing better than 'Cheers'.

That is the only reason I ever watched that show. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vicky is a funny woman, it should be a good show! Finally got to go see Vicky Lawrence and Mama last night. It was a good show and funny but, I was sitting too close to a speaker. Between her high pitched voice, her rapid speech pattern, the loud speaker and my hearing issues it was hard for me to catch a lot of the jokes. It was a sell-out crowd but for a small town (40,000) that is not hard to accomplish. We did enjoy it though. Rog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
