[QUOTE=IvoryTowerDenizen] You said Taxi was #3 and placed it at #5… (not that it matters, but these kinds of things get under my skin 🙂 …) [/QUOTE] 5 was right, there was some glitch with loading the page, I posted to say with 4 votes, it looked like Red was playing and then when I submitted the post, I saw guesses and I had to do some very fast edits to clean it up. I messed up Taxi being 5 on my list and I missed **LilyoftheValley** ’s post altogether. The list is correct. 1. All In the Family 2. M_A_S\*H 3. 4. The Mary Tyler Moore Show 5. Taxi 6. The Odd Couple 7. 8. Happy Days (before they jumped the Shark) 9. 10. ---

Three’s Company I had to go through everything on the Emmy page; I wasn’t born until the mid-eighties 🙂 But I have seen all these shows at least. ---

Not that ol’ Barney doesn’t rock but I had no idea it was such a hit. **WE** , let us know after the game’s over how you came up with your list! (for curiosity’s sake) [/QUOTE] I will. As usual it is using several sources and then my own point of view. I always include at least one list item that I don’t agree with. Like Curling 😉 I will provide the details if you remind me tomorrow. I could make a case for Barney being #1, but I know better. I think I already mentioned, Taxi was and is my favorite Sitcom of all time. So, I try not to let my opinion rule the list. Jim ---

Well, I had about a half dozen to choose from (lucky me for being alive in the 70s). The tough part is figuring out which 2 of those **What Exit?** might have listed. I’ll try _Mork & Mindy_ just because they talked about it on the radio today. ---
