Favorite Sitcoms

OK, I admit this was inspired by the "Favourite Comedians" thread, but since I went out of my way to American-ize the spelling, I claim that it has validity.

I think for the most part, the stuff that airs on network TV is watered down tripe, designed to not offend the greatest number of people and to try and sneak up to 100 episodes so they can start raking in the syndication cash. Additionally, I have noticed that very very few shows have any lasting content. Shows I loved as a youth (Happy Days and MASH for example) are almost unwatchable at this point (Oddly enough, Laverne & Shirley... still hilarious).

AS I am curious as to what others think, I'm only going to mention one show that I think is "great"... The Simpsons. There are others I believe fall into this catagory, but it'd be a very boring thread if I went and named them all.


Your thoughts....?
