Favorite 80's Sitcoms??

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

I was watching Nick at Nite for the hundreth night in a row it seems, and this thought popped into my head:

Which 80's sitcoms were the best? Which ones were the worst? (OK, there would be a VERY long list for that one!)

My favorites were, "The Facts of Life", "Family Ties", "Cheers" (I get more of the humor now than I did when I was say, 10), and probably more I forgot about or care to admit that I liked when I was just a young impressionable kid.

What were everyone's favorite 80's sitcoms? Humor me, please-feeling a tad nostalgic for a simpler time.

"Perfect Strangers"
"ALF"

I know I'm forgetting a bunch?

WORST 80's sitcoms?? *shrugs* I guess I wasn't a picky child.

Full House was aimed at kids.

Perfect Strangers was supposed to be stupid.

And now we are so happy, we do the dance of joy!
