'The Dick Van Dyke Show'

another DEBATABLE: 'Cheers'.
It never got BAAAD or worthless, but the last season or two covered old ground (for the most part) and certainly weren't as strong.
Great call on 'I Love Lucy' and 'The Andy Griffith Show'.
Also: 'The Honeymooners'.Originally posted by MartinOriginally posted by gravediggerOriginally posted by MartinComment

All of these shows overstayed their welcome.
The only one I can think of that didn't stick around long enough was Dragnet.
Because it was always fucking awesome.
ETA: I meant all of these shows until FEJNET printed out his list of hot pussywagons. My So Called Life being the only one that I've never seen.Me quick one want slowComment
