    WKRP in Cincinnati.

    I can't believe this hasn't been mentioned yet.

    Tough to keep watching too many at once of any comedy series that doesn't have a lot of continuous story lines.

    It's arrested development for me, the most binge watchable, then everything else. I've done so to a lesser extent a lot of the other ones mentioned here.

    The Wonder Years: you'll never find another sitcom like this. It's funny but can also get really dramatic too. A coming of age type of show.

    Is News Radio the most under-rated sitcom ever?

    Haha! Homeboys in Outer Space. I remember when the Rockets games were broadcast on UPN 20 Bill Worrell had to promote that show on the air. I watched a few, but only because the space chick was super hot.

    a friend told me to watch buffy the vampire slayer. and i did. man, 22 episodes a year, 1 hour each. i was amazed at how slowly i was getting through the series. even the first and last seasons were full seasons, which seems unheard of today.

    and what i used to just think was "that terrible show about vampires that they keep advertising during rockets games" turned out to be a really good series.

    friends. given how many episodes of there are and how many times i've seen each one, i would guess i've seen more episodes of friends than any other series. probably by a good margin.

    then cheers, fresh prince, king of queens, and everybody loves raymond.

    i would guess cheers would be second but i don't know, it hasn't been as available as the other 3.


    in terms of views per episode, saved by the bell and futurama. given their relatively short runs yet huge number of episodes in syndication each day, i would guess i've seen the average episode of these two the most. saved by the bell was on like 3 channels back in the day and adult swim would air 4 episodes of futurama a day for a while. "where the buggalo roam" seemed like it came on once a week.

    yeah obviously a lot is lost over 60 years, but adjusted for inflation it really is a very funny show and lucy is pretty much a comic genius. and i don't tend to like much from the pre-Cheers era.

    Yes. Yes it is.

    That's how I was with How I Met Your Mother. Didn't watch it while it was on but I've now seen every episode multiple times.

    Besides that, Parks & Rec, 30 Rock, MASH, Simpsons, and Archer.

    My Dad threw out the suggestion of Boston Legal.

    Excellent suggestion. From such bygone eras, I'd say Taxi is still pretty great too.
