I second this. And contribute the third (fourth?) season of Martin Lawrence's sitcom, aptly named "Martin!".

M*A*S*H* is one of,if not the best. Too bad you have to watch the movie to hear the lyrics to,"Suicide is Painless".

might I also mention;

Cheers
Happy Days (these days are ours...)
Laverne and Shirley
The Greatest American Hero (Believe it or not...) I'm not sure if it qualifies as a sitcom...

Addams Family (just another reason why it is superior to The Munsters..)
Get Smart

I'll offer up the theme song from WKRP in Cincinatti--pleasant, mellow, and yet catchy! A winner of a theme song :)

I used to love the "spinning the dial" Intro to the WKRP theme. Especially the bit about "...and while insisting he was not intoxicated, the Senator could not explain his nudity..." Years on, I wonder if it was a dig at Packwood? They don't play that bit in syndication.
