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?


Friends. Was That 70s Show made in the nineties? I only watched "classics" as repeats anyway.

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


No-one really stands out.

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


Sure, it's the only way I ever watched them. Besides the above, I have watched Seinfeld, Will & Grace, couple of other non sitcom things like Alias that might not be old enough.

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


I don't think Scrubs counts, but Scrubs.

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


That's a little hard, considering I don't know when most of them were made in the first place!

6. Laugh tracks - irritating or bearable?


Bearable, but can be irritating if they are too loud.

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


I don't watch sitcoms that I don't like.

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


Mostly Ross. He's only funny as the butt of a joke, and I don't find that very funny (unless it's done ironically).

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


The only show I remember with an evil twin was Sabrina. And Futurama, but I don't think that counts.

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


Spinoffs?

That's it. Switch your main dials to U and then set your UHF dial to 50.

Wait...you watched "Friends" but forgot about Ursula and Russ? Tom - 04/12/2009 05:14:24 PM 311 Views
Russ was hilarious. TaskmasterJack - 04/12/2009 05:27:33 PM 275 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 322 Views
They were at least as evil as Emperor Palpatine. *NM* Tom - 05/12/2009 05:22:22 PM 150 Views

Although quite absurd, "Knight Rider" wasn't technically a sitcom Tom - 04/12/2009 05:13:09 PM 302 Views
Yeah, I really got sucked in by that Benson marathon. TaskmasterJack - 04/12/2009 05:29:39 PM 329 Views
Oh, he was the sort of whiney guy with glasses, right? Tom - 04/12/2009 09:56:52 PM 311 Views
No glasses, no. He also wasn't terribly whiney as I recall. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 04/12/2009 10:10:24 PM 156 Views

I see you didn't switch your VHF dial to "U" before answering Tom - 04/12/2009 05:03:08 PM 289 Views

I'm not sure Black Adder is quite a "sitcom" Tom - 04/12/2009 05:04:05 PM 309 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 301 Views
Hmm...your new argument makes me think you might be right. Tom - 04/12/2009 09:58:31 PM 307 Views
I answers questions. Palatine - 04/12/2009 04:26:26 PM 283 Views
