Neuman · M
@Lostpoet all good options
WaryWitchWandering · 36-40, F
Everybody loves Raymond
Neuman · M
@WaryWitchWandering I didn't watch lots of it, but I liked what I saw. a little bit of an odd kinda show.
Zaphod42 · 51-55, M
I miss Cheers
Neuman · M
@Zaphod42 yeah, cheers worked surprisingly well for such a simple format.
Neuman · M
@Vin53 that's been a while. I remember as very off the wall.

Night Court. The original — I haven't seen the revival.
Neuman · M
@DunningKruger the old one was great. the reload ... meh it was too much of a "remember when this was good?". they also did a complete 180 on the "dan" character... it made no sense
Neuman · M
@DrawntoaDistance the show about nothing. most of it was quite good. had a really disappointing end, tho.
@Neuman most things do, bud, most things do
Neuman · M
@ElwoodBlues i liked it quite a bit when it was new. not sure id get as much from it rewatching.
Nevertooold · 56-60, M
Gilligans Island
Neuman · M
@Nevertooold very much a classic
5 of them

I Love Lucy
The Honeymooners
Cheers
Seinfeld
Frasier

The best line out of all of those shows, imho, wasn't funny in the least. It wasn't meant to be but it said it all about a certain friendship:

In The Honeymooners episode "Pal O' Mine," when confronted after pretending he isn't close with his best friend, Ralph Kramden delivers the classic line: "What I say about Norton is one thing, how I feel about him is another."

@rinkydinkydoink quite a range in styles and time there
@Neuman

This is a solid post :D
Keep more like it coming. (Trivia, likes, TV/movies, etc)

FIBBER McGEE AND MOLLY -- the radio version
ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M
@Neuman Probably not seen -- it's a radio show that ran from the 1930s to around 1960. Sitcoms -- and detective shows, and soap operas, etc., etc, -- existed long before TV and were basically adapted from one medium to the other. Early TV sitcoms like OZZIE AND HARRIET, FATHER KNOWS BEST, BEULAH, AMOS 'N' ANDY, JACK BENNY, LIFE OF RILEY, OUR MISS BROOKS were all originally radio shows.
Neuman · M
@ChipmunkErnie oh, I purchased some recordings on tape back in the day. seen in a catalog and heard thereafter.

@Neuman Archive.org has thousands of radio shows -- old a new -- available for free download as MP3 files.
