I watch Cheers on TV1- the retro cable TV channel here in Oz, but still. Seinfeld is the only thing that makes me laugh harder.

British sitcom about an abusive, talented, Afro-English chef. It only ran for three seasons but had some of the best one-liners in history. We had it on PBS here in Phoenix.

I grew up on NBC's Thursday night line up:

The Cosby Show, Family Ties, Cheers, Night Court. Everything else is weak in comparison. (I could add that I loved L.A. Law in that evenings line up too, but its not a sitcom.)

I saw someone mention Ned and Stacy, I had forgotten about that one and I really liked it.

I don't watch much TV, but I do think Home Improvement, King of the Hill, and the Drew Carey Show all had some good moments.

No, I mean that 60's show that I used to watch, can't remember the name ;)

Ok, seriously, it would be "That 70's Show" (80's is crap show)

But now that I think about it, "GET SMART!" blows the crap out of all those (except the episodes after the triplets)

Forgot to list some:
-3rd rock from the Sun is usually good
-Frasier is very funny and reminds me of Cheers
-Scrubs is the best new show I've seen sor far, and it has no laugh track. (Yay! :D )
And, of course, the Simpsons.( I know I said not to mention it because we already know most people around here like it, but, what the hell.)
