Movies and TV Clash of the Sitcoms: Round 1, Heat 17.

**Rain Man** · 01-19-2012, 01:27 PM

My thoughts:

#1 - Soap - One of the best shows ever. Bert's kidnapping by the aliens, Chester's prison escape, Chuck and Bob, I could go on and on.

#2 - The Partridge Family - Reasonably funny show, and occasionally they would pop out a classic line. I liked it, so sue me.

#3 - What's Happening? - Okay, it's not a classic, but I'll throw it a bone. It was pretty well-produced and well cast, and I could identify with the skinny geeky guy who was the lead character.

Didn't make the cut.

#4 - How I Met Your Mother - I saw it a few times and thought the Barney fellow was pretty funny, but the wimpy guy really bugged me. He could be the half-man on Two and a Half Men. So-so show.

#5 - Red Dwarf - I've never seen the show and can't vote for it, but I really suspect that I'd like it a lot. Anything with a mutant cat-human has to be funny.
