Best TV Sitcom Of All Time? (poll added; pick 3)

[LakeLivin]

Until things pick up again: this generated some interesting discussion on another forum a while back. If there's enough interest I'll add a poll using the shows that get support on here.

Use your own criteria but be prepared to defend it if (when) someone disagrees, lol.

edit: poll added. I wish HF had the ability to do ranked choice voting but since it can't you can pick three. When this poll ends I'll take the top couple and add another poll to crown the definitive HF26 Best Sitcom Ever.

I really got into Chuck and was pretty sad it ended but no matter how much I liked it its pretty easy to pick the top 2 and its not close

Everything else is just second tier.

I've always thought that Friends is very overrated.

 

[Lempo]

Oh you cute, misguided Americans.

 

[WreckingCrew]

Home Improvement
Big Bang Theory

Most Underrated: Becker

 

[AD Skinner]

A lot of good choices here but I feel like in terms of impact and staying power it’s hard not to say the simpsons even if it hasn’t been good for longer than it was good

 

[Lempo]

Obviously, of the American ones it's Frasier.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Oh you cute, misguided Americans.

Whatever’s going on with the black haired lady’s leg is not what you first think is happening when you look at the picture.

It's very much in character.

What this guy said. Even the part about Chuck.

 

[LakeLivin]

Given how groundbreaking it was, I think All In The Family deserves consideration.

And I'm a little surprised there's been no mention of Seinfeld yet; it has some pretty iconic episodes (Kramer slapping $100 on the counter: "I'm out.")
