Classic TV Sitcoms Tom Send a noteboard - 03/12/2009 07:28:21 PM
1. What is your favourite classic TV sitcom (by "classic" I generally mean anything before 2000 and the reality TV/medical drama/HBO-ization/cable dilution of the market phenomena)? Why?

2. Who is your favourite classic TV character? (Not necessarily from the same sitcom as above)

3. Do you like watching re-runs of old TV shows? If so, what are a few you like watching?

4. Do you own any TV sitcoms on DVD? If so, which ones?

5. What decade would you consider the "golden age" of the sitcom?

6. Laugh tracks - irritating or bearable?

7. What sitcom did you hate the most and why?

8. What character on a TV sitcom irritated you the most and why?

9. Which evil twin or brother/sister did you like best and why?

10. What spinoff do you think was the best? The worst?

That's it. Switch your main dials to U and then set your UHF dial to 50.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Wait...you watched "Friends" but forgot about Ursula and Russ? Tom - 04/12/2009 05:14:24 PM 653 Views
Russ was hilarious. TaskmasterJack - 04/12/2009 05:27:33 PM 601 Views
I didn't forget about them per se Just didn't connect them with "evil" straight away. ironclad - 05/12/2009 11:58:04 AM 650 Views
They were at least as evil as Emperor Palpatine. *NM* Tom - 05/12/2009 05:22:22 PM 309 Views

Although quite absurd, "Knight Rider" wasn't technically a sitcom Tom - 04/12/2009 05:13:09 PM 634 Views
Yeah, I really got sucked in by that Benson marathon. TaskmasterJack - 04/12/2009 05:29:39 PM 660 Views
Oh, he was the sort of whiney guy with glasses, right? Tom - 04/12/2009 09:56:52 PM 645 Views
No glasses, no. He also wasn't terribly whiney as I recall. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 04/12/2009 10:10:24 PM 308 Views

I'm not sure Black Adder is quite a "sitcom" Tom - 04/12/2009 05:04:05 PM 628 Views
It's about one of the most perfect examples of a situation comedy I can think of Mark - 04/12/2009 05:33:07 PM 669 Views
Hmm...your new argument makes me think you might be right. Tom - 04/12/2009 09:58:31 PM 658 Views
I answers questions. Palatine - 04/12/2009 04:26:26 PM 630 Views
Yeah. I never liked "Three's Company", either. Tom - 04/12/2009 05:07:17 PM 634 Views
