It doesn't matter how many times I have seen these episodes in fact I have seen them so many times some I know word for word. But they are so great and still hold up to this day.

The Andy Griffith Show - wasn't the same after Don Knotts left. Andy and Don were great together and who doesn't want to live in Mayberry.

All In The Family - Great cast Carroll O Conner and Jean Stapleton were perfect as Archie and Edith. Same for Sally Struthers and Rob Reiner as Mike and Gloria. This show will live on forever it still holds up today. Great writers and great actors keep these shows alive.

Leave It To Beaver - Beaver and his bff Larry always getting in trouble. Didn't we all have a friend like Larry running off and leaving us holding the bag.

A few to add would be
Fraiser
Family Ties
Fresh Prince of Bel Air
alright gang your turn!

My favorite classic shows for me were "Father Knows Best", because they alway had drama but they all still came together at the end being a happy loving family, " I Love Lucy" because of all the funny gimbics she would get herself into, "Leave it to Beaver" who didn't want a mom at home when you came home from school. I also loved Family Ties, Three's Company and Fame.

My mom was a stay at home mom but back then it was much easier. But yes it was great having mom home. Fame that was a great show even when the kids would come and go. Very well written.

I like to watch alot of those old sitcoms such as: Whos The Boss, The Cosby Show, Family Ties, All in The Family, Roseanne(although that ones not as old) and more. I also like those classic black and whites like I love Lucy, The Honeymooners, Leave it to Beaver, The Three Stooges. I can watch any of these shows over and over even if Ive seen the episode 100 times. they are just so much better than most of the stuff that is out today in my opinion.


myLot reputation of 67/100. snoopyfan (582)   ranked 132 out of 4,082 in watching television  2 years ago

Who's the boss and Cosby forgot about those and yes very well written. You can include Roseanne once they make it to TV Land they are classics. And yes comedy shows aren't written well at all. I don't watch any of the new comedies.


myLot reputation of 90/100. standbymeforever (644)   ranked 114 out of 4,082 in watching television  2 years ago

Well they do show Roseanne on Dejaview channel...does that count? Oh and I also forgot to mention Growing Pains and Golden Girls which are two other 80s sitcoms that are awesome. I love how they were actually genuinly funny back then and not the stupid funny that they tend to do today with comedies.

3. myLot reputation of 89/100. lologirl2021 (3260)   ranked 1,007 out of 4,082 in watching television   2 years ago

When i was growing up i like the mickey mouse club and watched it all the time and wish it would still air for great memories. I always like the flinstones and the Jetsons. Those were some great cartoons back in the day for me. Saturday morning cartoons where the thing to watch. I also like duck tails, when i came home from school i use to watch that and the show with cory and tapenga (cant thing of the name of it).

I also used to watch save by the bell and even the fresh prince of bel air. There were so many good shows back then, now a days there isn't all thse shows for the kids to watch and maybe that is why the crime rates go up in towns because kids are bored.


myLot reputation of 67/100. snoopyfan (582)   ranked 132 out of 4,082 in watching television  2 years ago

Those are all great cartoons and I watch them all even Saved By The Bell. I didn't like the next generation. I did watch the college years which wasn't on long. It was okay.

myLot reputation of 67/100. snoopyfan (582)   ranked 132 out of 4,082 in watching television  2 years ago

Those are great shows I forgot about Rhoda that was really good. The Bob Newhart Show another one I forgot to list. I loved how when Bob ended his newer series Newhart the ending was a dream and Bob woke up and they were back on The Bob Newhart Show one of the best endings to a series ever.


myLot reputation of 96/100. coffeebreak (7200)   ranked 33 out of 4,082 in watching television  2 years ago

I saw that... wasn't that classic! That was the best "finale ending" I think I have seen of any show. I liked that ending better than "Who Shot JR" cliffhanger. Talk about out of the blue and out of no where! That was a great moment in TV


myLot reputation of 67/100. snoopyfan (582)   ranked 132 out of 4,082 in watching television  2 years ago

That was the best ending to a show ever. I remember everyone was talking about that the next day. It was great that never leaked out to the media they would have ruined it.

My absolute favorites were Giligan and the other were the Munsters they were very interesting and they were hilarious without any of the weird stuff they have in shows now, like cartoons that are for adults, what an oxymoron.


myLot reputation of 69/100. JerusalemFolk (2424)   ranked 3,639 out of 4,082 in watching television  2 years ago

We don't have a TV since our Rabbi wrote that watching TV eats lots of time and we should spend more time to spiritual life. WE have also more quality life with our children. Since we may watch DVD on our Computer, we like to see our children watch Emergency Room, hoping that one of our children will be in the medical profession like myself. We like also Monty Python. I think it is important to give to the children only a little bit of Tube, with DVD or You Tube, and also a good quality, instead of letting the TV be the baby sitter the all day. Children need also to play and to have friends.

I also have many favorite classic shows. All in the family is certainly one of my top favorites. I also really enjoy Golden Girls, I would say that I really enjoy watching Estelle Getty. I also like to watch Three's company and The Jeffersons. There have been so many classic shows made. I just do not think that they have made them that good anymore.


myLot reputation of 67/100. snoopyfan (582)   ranked 132 out of 4,082 in watching television  2 years ago

You are right they don't make classics like that anymore. I was never into Friends or now it's Two and A Half Men. I know they are popular but I never thought either one were funny.

Oh gosh, hard to believe all those are classics now but I did enjoy all of those shows when I was a kid. Hey! Thanks for making me feel old! lol Now I'd LOVE to add "Golden Girls" to the list for now it's a classic too especially with two of the shows characters are gone now. I still laugh my butt off at their antics and awful comments to each other. Ask my hubby, he'll tell ya! LOL


Golden Girls
