Everybody Loves Raymond and King of Queens were fantastic. Loved the occasional crossover.

In my head Spin City was much earlier, but looking it up, it wasn't. Maybe it's just ELR is still on C4 in the mornings and I've not seen Spin City since it was on, I guess. Loved that though.

I don't think anyone has mentioned News Radio? Starred people like Joe Rogan, Stephen Root, Andy Dick, Phil Hartman... really good/funny TV.

Frasier, Cheers, Roseanne and Friends of course.

Freaks and Geeks is a very underrated series. Lots of Stars now were in it.
Although it was very late 90s, so basically 1999

Hades · 31 Dec 2021 at 09:57

Not all 90's but:

MASH
Hill Street Blues
Cheers
Starsky and Hutch
Friends

I also watched Soap - it was so ridiculous it was funny till it got toooo ridiculous.

Another was Sledge Hammer - cop comedy series he did come up with the right ideas - One being all kids from criminal parents should be jailed at birth -10 yrs you are crime free.

Everyone watched Cheers and SITC.

There's one US sitcom which I recall watching in the late 70s called Barney Miller.
Highly under-rated.

Anyone else remember "We Got it Made" which was on in the late 80's. Only lasted one season apparently, but I remember Teri Copley was a bit of alright in that one.

Taxi was one of those where you knew there was something special about Latka/Andy Kaufman at the time, but it wasn't until years later when the internet arrived so you could really find out just how remarkable a guy he was in comedy.

Welcome Back Kotter was another one in that same classic American fuzzy looking video style, same as Barney Miller. Remember watching it on school holiday afternoons.

I remember briefly watching Taxi in the late 80s but I was still too young for it. It wasn't until mid/late 90s I really started getting into it to really appreciate it.

I loved Cheers. It had such a great cosy setting. Was Cheers Friday or Sunday nights on Channel 4? Something makes me remember Friday nights 9pm...

Frasier by a mile.

Also to those saying Wonder Years, I used to love that as well, but sitcom?

True, watched that a lot as well but I remember watching a lot of The Cosby Show in the late 80s early/mid 90s. I don't care what anyone says of Bill Cosby, that show will stay a gem in my memories.
