I liked The Cosby Show, but it's the only one here I've watched. How is The Bill Cosby Show? Where he plays Chet, not Heathcliff.
I don't know. I've never seen it either.

My vote: The Bob Newhart Show
May I suggest a few edits (just a little bit of punctuation)? They're in bold below:

'What a nice poll: it's reminding me of when I was growing up, watching reruns of several of these shows with my mom, which means I wasn't getting left in a tree, or some such thing, by my older brothers, lol.

I suggestion changing the word "whenever" to "often" - it's more accurate.

Just curious, why do you have The Lucy Show, The Cosby Show and the Sinbad Show but you didn't add The Mindy Show?
I was going to add it but I couldn't find any reference to it being called The Mindy Show. I appears as The Mindy Project on the website.

Aha.

You can still add my suggestions and ask for a re-push.
The Mary Tyler Moore Show belongs somewhere at the top of this list.

Holy crap - how did we miss MTM?!???

TheMovieSmith,
How did we miss MTM?!???This is a major oversight. Your poll currently only has 24 choice. Please add Mary Tyler Moore (1970–1977) to the end of your list and ask for a re-push.
