Favorite Sitcom of all time?

[TimBone]

Some buddies and I were talking at work the other day about what the best sitcoms of all time were....we are all three from different generations, so there were quite a variety of names thrown out there. I'd like to get a broader opinion, and this site gets the most traffic out of any I visit.

So, lets hear your opinions. If the thread is well received and gets quite a few nominees, I'll try and create a poll later on of the top ten, so that we can narrow it down to one.

I'll start by mentioning Seinfeld and The Simpsons.

Seinfeld, I think got off to a slow start the first season or so, but really picked up and had a good run. Very nice finale too with lots of returning characters.

The Simpsons has really fell off the last decade or so, but in its first decade, it was really wonderful.

I love Seinfeld. But Family Guy... I've seen every episode a gazillion times and it's still hilarious.

Even though I don't watch the show religiously, no show has been more impressive in its run than South Park. Simpsons and Seinfeld got a little stale toward the end. South Park is better than ever 15 years in.

Seinfeld won by a large margin.

The best cameo in that series was Bookman. He was the library cop that busted Jerry for a book that wasn't returned in 1971. He went on a rant in Jerry's apartment and when he left the apartment he received the loudest applause in the history of the show. I laughed and clapped for his acting ability.

Scrubs is mine.... If you have t watched a full season you should. Seinfeld wasn't funny IMO

You make an impressive case. Makes me realize that I've spent a lot of time enjoying Matt and Trey's work in the moment without thinking about it in the big picture much. But between South Park, SP BLU and Book of Mormon, they deserve to be placed in the hall of all time titans. All with 'potty humor' that is more incisive and insightful than most all other media.
