Wings is the right answer. And it holds up. I put Wings in the pantheon with Seinfeld. Certainly not the head god, but at least a demi-god worthy of your worship. 
The 2 seasons with Alex are just about money as money can be.

Early seasons of Night Court.
Oh, and even more old school: Soap and Taxi.

The Nanny.
1) Funny
2) Drescher was damned easy on the eyes (though, not the ears)
3) Lots of homages to old, classic sitcoms (That Girl, I love Lucy, The Lucy Show, Dick Van Dyke Show [really funny since Anne Guilbert {Yetta} was Millie Helper on DVDS])
4) Cast stayed the same the whole run
5) The supporting characters were solid (esp. Niles, Sylvia and Yetta)

I still like Everybody Loves Raymond reruns, though that one was pretty popular...
What are some others?
Better Off Ted only ran for a season or two but was funny as shite.

For me The Nanny is in a category by itself that goes beyond mere artistic shittiness
Listening to her speak is actually physically painful

The John Laroquette Show was sneaky OK. I also liked Head of the Class and Growing Pains.

Anyone remember a short lived show called Carpool I think? Had the kid from Stand by Me on it.

I remember watching a show called "Dear John" ,with the dude from Taxi, that I really liked.

Martin and The Wayan Bros. are underrated among the white folks.
