Obviously I don’t like the shows the **jali ** does.
My top 10 only contains 3 from his list tops.
It might have been better to ask us for our top 10.

And I’m subbing in Newsradio.
Bolded the ones I like - there were only 8 of them. Note that I’ve never seen WKRP or 30 Rock, though.
ETA: If we’re allowed to sub in other shows, then I’ll throw in Union Square (debuted and disappeared within a couple episodes in '97 but I thought it was awesome) and The King of Queens.

…it is actually 11 since I added one, but the last 4-5 could easily be nixed by further replacement picks. I assume that The Daily Show, Colbert Report, and MST3K do not count as sitcoms?

If I had my druthers I’d replace
The Simpsons (which I used to watch all the time but haven’t watched in the last 5 years) & Frasier with Home Improvement and Married with Children.
Thanks everyone for responding!
Someone was explaining to me that there’s a “Friends” camp and a “Seinfeld” camp and those who like one usually hate the other. Your answers disprove that.
These results are interesting to me. There are shows that I can’t stand and I thought that those who like my hated shows wouldn’t share my love for other shows. Wrong.
I can’t watch a full episode of 2 1/2 Men, but I share the love of other shows on the lists of those who watch 2 1/2 Men regularly.
The original list of 20 included shows I hate as well as those I like.
AbFab is one of the best sitcoms ever made IMO - I just didn’t think of it at the time.
The Daily Show,** Colbert**, Bill Maher don’t count as sitcoms in this thread.
Oh yeah, I’m a chick. (someone mentioned “his list”)

And FWIW, Frasier and The Cosby Show were the two that almost made the cut, when I was trying to whittle it down to 10.
(And of course I was limiting myself to the 20 originally listed. There are plenty of other good, and bad, sitcoms out there.)
