South Park and Urkel were no brainers. Friends got a sympathy vote from me.

Rain Man 01-16-2012 10:51 PM

My thoughts:

#1 - Friends, by a wide margin. Chandler was my favorite character, but as the series went on I liked Joey more and more. This was a top-shelf show.

#2 - I was tempted to not vote for a #2, because none of the other shows did a lot for me. I'm going to throw a vote the direction of F Troop, because it was Gilligan's Island before Gilligan's Island was invented. Put some guys in a fort in the middle of nowhere, have a fat boss and a skinny sidekick, and every week someone visits them and hilarity ensues.

#3 - Eh, I feel like I should enjoy South Park, but I really don't. In concept it seems great, but I can't understand their voices half the time and the animation doesn't exactly enthrall me. I'll vote for them, but only because I have excess votes.

Didn't make the cut.

The Jetsons. When I was four I would've voted for them instantly.

Family Matters. I never knew the name of this show. In fact, I didn't really think about the fact that it was a show. I thought it was just Urkel. Nothing against it, but I never watched it because it looked kind of cheesy with, you know, Urkel.

1. South Park - best cartoon ever and still hilarious
2. The Jetsons - this was epic in the 80's for kids
3. Family Matters - Urkell, watching it when I was a little lad
4. F-Troop - I can't really remember much but I remember that I watched it.
5. Friends - most over rated, over acted, crap show of all time.

Friends was a consistently great show for a long time. It had some really classic episodes and I loved the way various strands of story would come together, one way or another, in the end. The final episode was terribly disappointing, but Larry David made up for it with the Seinfeld reunion concept in Curb Your Enthusiasm.

I gave the Jetsons a probably undeserved vote just because I felt generous.

F-Troop was another show that I liked as a child but can't vote for here.

I've never been a fan of Southpark. I did watch an episode about World of Warcraft once that was pretty darned funny though.

Family Matters doesn't register in my memory at all although I know who Urkel is. I always wondered how he got famous.

The Jetsons was on in the 80s? I watched it as a little kid around 1970 and it seemed like it had been on for a long time even then.

South park is greatest thing since Marijuana

I can't believe the Jetsons is even in the same neighborhood as South Park in votes.

Mama Hip Rockets 01-16-2012 11:18 PM

Only 33 percent for Family Matters? Shameful.

It will. I bet it takes it all in the end

F Troop and The Jetsons - nothing else comes close to making the cut.

Storch and Tucker were a pretty good duo, and I was always hoping Captain Parmenter would end up with Wrangler. Chief Wild Eagle and Crazy Cat were hilarious. LMAO

The Flintstones were the prehistoric Honeymooners, and The Jetsons were the Sci Fi Flintstones. Sometimes imitation is a very sincere form of flattery, and it can also work.

Friends is the Logo channel version of Seinfeld. Sometimes imitation doesn't work.

South Park is great for people who like poorly animated children spouting soft core porn language.

I don't even know what the hell Family Matters is.

blaise 01-16-2012 11:25 PM

South Park is probably the best satire on TV ever.
