Greatest Ever Sitcoms

[Deleted]

Full Top 50 of the show that aired on Ch5 tonight, shockingly Only Fools & Horses was only at 7!!!
Quite a few that never made the list too.
Pleased to see Red Dwarf in the Top 10, and Friends.
I can see why Blackadder is so high but i would have thought Only Fools deserved to be No.1
Personally not a fan of some of the more modern stuff though, prefer the classic sitcoms! 
I like Mrs Browns Boys though, that has a classic feel to it and very funny.

Ones that missed out include Rising Damp, Reggie Perrin, Are You Being Served, Bread, Just Good Friends, The Liver Birds,
The Likely Lads, Goodnight Sweetheart, Some Mothers Do Ave Em, Citizen Smith, On The Buses, My Family, The Upper Hand, Brush Strokes and Duty Free.

This was a repeat of a show previously shown last New Year

[o]

Blackadder and Fawlty Towers for me, end of.

[Deleted]

Will and Grace, IT Crowd, Father Ted, and Blackadder for me. I think Fawlty Towers hasn't aged as well as the others.

[FloMinogue]

Some brilliant shows on there but never heard of quite a few of them.
I adore Ab Fab, Frasier, Father Ted & Inbetweeners

[TheThorne]

It's about consistency for me , black adder 2-4 don't have a weak episode neither does Father Ted or Faulty Towers but OFAS has a lot of duff and boring episodes which are borderline soap , people only remember the funny bits.

Disappointing not to see Bottom in there. It was better than the Young Ones IMO

[LT]

The simpsons? surely thats a sitcom? maybe because its animated its not included?

[rewardman]

Like all such lists you'll never get agreement.

I can't understand how neither Leonard Rossiter show could be left off and there is no justice if Frank Spencer is snubbed.

fawlty towers and only fools

recently watched a behind the sceenes- how fawlty towers was actually made, where they shot the sceenes, why they only made 2 series, etc.

interesting stuff

Who voted in this survey.

A team of experts from tv always get it wrong.

I bet if Haven did this it would be a lot different.

[greendemon]

Top 4 sounds about right. Blackadder is fantastic.

I'd have had Vicar of Dibley and The Thick of It in the top 10 as well. Only Fools is vastly overrated in my opinion.

[Smurfie]

Absolutely Fabulous, Blackadder, IT Crowd, Father Ted, Allo Allo, would be my 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

I've grown to love Parks and Recreation. Vicar of Dibley would be my runner up.

Sorry, HATE Only Fools and Horses and Open All Hours.

[Deleted]

Annoyed that mine is at number 34, should be much higher, so not keen on Blackadder

[wonderwall]

Only fools and horses by a country mile I think

[vastar iner]

Friends? lol. I wouldn't have any of the American ones in there. Only The Simpsons and even then before about 2002.

Yes Minister is 21 places too low. Good to see EDC in the top ten, very under-rated. Also under-rated was Dear John.

[vya]

Would definitely add Reggie Perrin, and be rid of Friends. And drop Red Dwarf a substantial number of places: there was only so many times calling someone a 'smeghead' was remotely amusing.
