I have kind of odd tastes, but I have rarely been floored by shows. There have been a lot of good sitcoms, but my 10 are

1. Scrubs
2. The Dick Van Dyke Show (The Show That Started It all) at least for me.
3. The Office (US)
4. The Larry Sanders Show
5. 30 Rock
6. Taxi (Jim Ignatowski is a genius!)
7. Newhart
8. How I Met Your Mother
9. Wings
10. Family Ties
"We Were Born To Be Loved'"

useta like The Simpsons, until Family Guy. Family Guy is hilarious.
NO. He's NOT Steve F'ing Perry. But he's Arnel F'ing Pineda and I'm okay with that.

Dude, I TOTALLY forgot to put TAXI on my list...
GREATEST Taxi moment ever- Tony gets Rev Jim to help study for a driving test, and the exchange went thusly:

Jim: Ok Tony...what does a "yellow light" mean.

Tony: Slow down.

Jim: (beat...thinks about it) Whhhaaattt....doooeeessss... a yelllllowwww. .. lighttttt meeeean....

Tony; SLOW DOWN!

Jim: (frustrated) WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAATTTTTTT DDDDDDOOOOOOEEEEESSSSSS AAAAAAAA YYYYEEEELLLLOOOOWWW LLLLIGGGHHHTTTT....

Thanks. Now I have that theme song stuck in my noggin. :evil:

This is the theme to Gary's show, the opening theme to Gary's show...
this is the music that you hear as you watch the CRE-dits.

We're almost at the part, of where I start to whistle...
this is the theme to Gary Shandling's show...


I bet that's on youtube but I can't look up youtubes here. :x


FAVORITE show of all time except for Cheers...

Sunday night was so good with Fox back then... married with children in that mix too..
