I loved Coach. It was cheezy but I love football and haydens cabin in the woods was awesome.

If Coach knocks out the Dick Van Dyke Show it will prove CP is populated by a bunch of 19 year old reeruns.

Taxi great writing and characters. But this was a motivating factor for watching for me. My first redhead crush as a youth. Marilu Henner.

Taxi is the only one I think really deserves to go far in this contest, but I gave an honorable mention vote to DVD.

I never liked Lucy or Coach and I never watched Chris.

BTW, for those that don't know, the actor who played the assistant coach on Coach made a few appearances on the DVD show with his real life brother, Dick Van Dyke.

Wow, that's right. I never watched Coach, so I'd forgotten that Jerry Van Dyke was on both shows something like 30 or 40 years apart. What an odd coincidence.

Another great episode from Taxi is the one when Jim took his first hit of pot in college.

IMO, this contest comes down to Taxi and WKRP. M*A*S*H* will be in the running, but the later years put it behind the others. All in the Family and SOAP are at the top too.

Taxi and Night Court were great sitcoms....and there were some greats spots from Jim on Taxi and Dan Fielding on Night Court.

But I'm with you....WKRP should win this contest.

Although I will say that Home Improvement provided some great comedy moments too. My favorite Home Improvement episode is where Jill is trying to have the romantic episode with Tim after he has taken the boys to a Monster Truck Rally and had Nachos, a Chili Dog with extra slaw and onions, chili Cheese Fries and a large Root Beer.

Pure comedy....and I bet that scene has happened in millions of households more than once.

Yeah, I voted for Dick Van Dyke instead of Coach just to represent for us older denizens of this site.

They got the name of the shows wrong:

should have been Everybody Loves Chris

&

Everybody Hates Raymond.

Dick Van Dyke briefly caught Coach and even passed it by a vote, but now has fallen behind again. Meanwhile, Lucy floats just above the danger zone. We're going to see a popular show go down in this heat.

"Lucy" an innovation in it's time, does not age well. Stories are contrived and too silly for today's audience. Thanks for the Memories. But no "Thanks."

That's sad....Coach was good, but not really that good.

The problem is that most of the people here now aren't really old enough to have seen Dick Van Dyke

The sad thing is that the next generation will say the same thing about this generations group of sitcoms

Bugeater 01-14-2012 10:24 AM

Coach is my favorite on this list. ILL hasn't aged well, never got into Taxi at all and even as old as I am, I do not remember DVD very well.
