Wow, and I thought I was the only one that thought that! Wink I just bought the entire collection of I Dream Of Jeannie... Grin

I got an email from Amazon that said for one day only they were selling the Complete Set of I Dream of Jeannie for $70.00 and the email said that it was 60% off the original price. So I said to my self "I can't pass a deal like this up...." So I bought it and they were sent today and I'm so excited, and I'm the only one thats excited, and i'm going to drive my family crazy with all of Jeannies misadventures! Smiley

There are some good ones that me and the guys here thought should considered:

How I met your mother
2 and a half men
Boston Legal
Third Rock
Spin City

We believe these are(were) all hilarious...even more than some of the ones on the poll.  Thanks

Never saw the show but I heard it was good!There have only been a few sitcoms from the 80's and 90's on up that I would try not to miss! They are as follows
Everybody loves Raymond
Home Improvement
The Nanny
Alf
Cheers
Mamma's Family
Golden Girls
Daddy Dearest-Could have been better written,but I continued to watch,because I have always liked Don Rickles! Maybe thats why it only was on 1 season?
Roll Eyes I geuss now that I just looked over the list I made it was more then a few! Grin Grin Grin

I voted for "Frasier", although "Everybody Loves Raymond" is excellent as well.

I've watched Frasier since it's premiere, but I only discovered Raymond about one year ago.  It's very "real", but certainly presented in a 1990s/2000s manner.  (Anyone who doesn't want to try watching "Raymond" because it's too "new" would associate well with Ray's parents!)

"Frasier" is simply brilliant.  I place it right up there with "TAGS", "The Dick Van Dyke Show", "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" and "The Bob Newhart Show" (among other equally brilliant comedies.)

The only shows currently airing that I make it a point to TRY to remember to watch, are "The Office" and "30 Rock".  Both are very good, but they are somewhat hit-or-miss.
