TV sitcom trivia...What word got Johnny Fever banned from the radio?

---

"Booger."

Don't mess with me... I'm the trivia king.

(got nuttin' better to do with my time...)

Tyler: I don't consider South Park a sit com, but if it was, it would be high on my list.

1. Big Bang Theory
2. Still Standing
3. Listen Up
4. Rules of Engagement
5. How I Meat Your Mother

Can you tell I haven't been around long?

j/c
Taking it in a bit different direction, how about the sitcom actors/actresses?

Top place in my view, well the folks coming to mind are Lucy Ball, Jackie Gleason, Andy Griffith.

Best 2nd banana's seems a lot easier to me. I immediately think of Don Knotts as Barney Fife and Art Carny as Ed Norton.

Most unforgettable characters for me are both from Taxi: Christopher Lloyd as Jim Ignatowski and Danny DeVito as Louie De Palma.

Worst casting ever: Jack Burns (once George Carlin's comedy partner and then later teamed up with Averyt Schreiber) as deputy Warren Ferguson, Don Knotts replacement on the Andy Griffith Show.

Beside best shows, who would you say are some of sitcoms best people?

1)Cheers
2)Family guy
3)Friends
4)Simpsons
5)Seinfeld

Honorable mention

Cosby Show
Married with Children
Night Court
Spin City (Michael J Fox ones)
Hogan's Heroes
That 70's Show
Three's Company
News Radio
Taxi- an almost forgotten Great

Seinfeld
mad about you
sanford and son
I love lucy
the honney mooner's to name a few.

Seinfeld
All in the Family
Cheers
MASH
Get Smart

I will give honorable mentions to Roseanne and George Lopez. Both were hysterical at first - great writing. Both went downhill quickly.

This list is by no means exhaustive, and I'm sure I'm leaving some out.

In no particular order:

The Simpsons
The Venture Brothers
The Office
Seinfeld
Family Guy
Futurama
Family Ties
Cosby Show
Golden Girls (that show just plain cracks me up)

Is MXC a sitcom? It sure makes me laugh like one.

LOL... "My bullet... where's my bullet?!?"

Seinfeld
Home Improvement
Mash
70's Show
Happy Days

I always maintain that "Roseanne" should've been called "Goodman". He carried that show.

John Larroquette as Dan Fielding (quite the uncouth pig!)
John Ratzenberger as Cliff Claven
Carroll O'connor as Archie Bunker

Also, a runner-up on my list above would be Hogan's Heroes I have a soft spot for that one.

Cant believe I forgot this one and I dont think anyone has mentions it.


SCRUBS

Definitely in my top 5

Scrubs is great, true, I forgot about that show.

A few animated shows I love that I think deserve mention since a lot of people are throwing out animated shows...

Futurama
Family Guy
South Park
The Simpsons

As of 2010 all of those shows will be on the air and that's something worth smiling about.
