Part way through season 2, and it's easily the funniest show I've ever seen. It's well written, the jokes are smart, unlike most sitcoms today. And the characters are great. Sam and Diane are great and Coach is hilarious. I have seen random episodes here and there, but never from the beginning. If I had known how great it really was, I wouldn't have waited so long to watch it. And easily the best theme song of all time.

Also, cheers > sinefeld.

you must be a ratard


and to answer your question, NO. The best sitcom of all time is mentioned in your post and every other post in this thread so far though, although it is spelled Seinfeld

No. Always the answer to the GOAT question.

I enjoy Cheers, but Seinfeld was basically written for me. It is just my type if humour. It never gets old.

Well this thread proved you can't question the popular opinion.

I don't think OP was trying to troll - and yet, even when some agree but still praise Seinfeld...

It's as if you say Seinfeld is sort of overrated...everyone goes apeshite.

There's a legitimate argument Cheers is the best sit-com ever for all the reasons the OP stated.

I don't know if it is the best...but is the most well-rounded with all the characters and storylines.

Seinfeld (as great as it was) felt like one episode was the same note after another...

No surprise they finished with the argument over the button on the shirt...that was Seinfeld...a limited writer show - who have a specific idea over and over and over again.

I love the show but this idea that you can't critique it or love some other show is preposterous.

All of the following are better than Cheers, in my opinion:

- Seinfeld
- Scrubs
- Friends
- Modern Family
- Parks and Rec
- 30 Rock
- The Office (US version, b/4 Michael Scott left)

All in the Family. Period.

It was so good they moved it to Sunday nights to compete with Battlestar Galactica. It killed the show.
