The first page had me concerned -- I thought I was having a stroke.

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

Sitcoms peaked with Urkel.

Now I want an Urkel/Alf Odd Couple like team up sitcom.

So you are saying we should put the Pledge of Allegiance and illiegal immigrants back into the classroom ...

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

What if each classroom came with an illegal immigrant that lead each class in the saying of the Pledge Of Allegiance?

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

I'm lost ... are we talking about politicians or welfare recipients? That statement could work either way.

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

If you want to relive Growing Pains ,Who's The Bosss and Family Ties you can just watch any of the crappy Nickelodeon/Disney preteen demo sitcoms.

Follow the logic ... he knows lots of gays, he knows they hate being gay ... I'm thinking he is part of the "they."

I wonder what JJ thought of Bossom Buddies?

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

I sure hope this j.j.smith person has gotten some really outdated Nyquil and this isn't how they normally are.

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

Oh, man, an effeminate black guy and an illegal alien living together in sin? No way the OP would go for that.

To be fair, nothing about the Big Bang Theory is funny.

Wait a second... J... J...

Double Jace!

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

Fixed.

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

This thread got hilarious fast.

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

CBS's fault, or the popularity of their bukkake at least.

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

Sometimes speaking the truth hurts and bothers people, that's the problem with America, a lot of people feel the same way I do, but they are afraid to speak there opinion. All because of money and power!!

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

I did read where nbc came out with a contest, to find something new, outside of L.A. or N.Y.! Maybe they can find something??

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

So are you speaking truth or opinion? It can't be both.

Let me give you a hint: Opinion.

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

I'm just waiting for the other shoe to drop when OP reveals his "great" idea for a sitcom.

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

You know what would be great? A sitcom where Jason Bateman plays a gay man who gets a straight roommate!

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

Yaah! It'd be like a current day Sodom and Gomorrah!

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

Sorry but it is the truth!! People get ridiculed for getting on gays, and the funny part is gays make up about 2% of the population!

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

Wow, this thread is fantastic. It's like watching the bar drunk spout off whatever junk comes to his thoughts, with the rest of the patrons playing off of his nonsense.

Good times.

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

Which title is better: Sodom and Gomorrah or Some Of My Best Friends?

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

Some of my Best Friends Love Sodom..y ?

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

HEY!! Get off that gay!

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

If you're on a gay, you might be gay yourself.

What difference does it make what percentage of the population they are?

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

It makes a big deal, we give them too much respect!! When they are such a small percent, that's why they try and recruit people like your self and young children in believing that its ok to be gay!! Its just not!!

He already has one successful comedy writing gig to his credit ... This thread!

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

Why is it that when I click to view our coolest new member's profile (mostly to find other insightful posts), I get: This user has not registered and therefore does not have a profile to view.

In other words, Why is there not anymore profile to view?

I sense a conspiracy!

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

If they make up 2% of the population, then they shouldn't make up any more or less than 2% of the conversation on here. Or is that blacks and police departments? ;)

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

Might be related to the punctuation in his username.

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

Wait a minute ... Are you the guy who came to our village board meeting and informed us that the residents in our town are afraid to exercise their Second Amendment right to come speak before the board?

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

What started out as a semi interesting discussion has devolved into utter nonsense. Good Lord man.

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

It definitely is. I get the same thing with my profile, because of the hyphen.

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

This is way more entertaining than someone saying "everything was better in my day" and then a bunch of people listing stuff they like.

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

Too bad we didn't have nonsensical internet threads in my day so I could say that nonsensical internet threads like this were "better in my day." The closest thing we had was drunken, rambling conversations on the street corner on late summer nights. And no, we didn't record them on our battery-operated cassette tape recorders. No one thought to do that. Which is probably best for all of us.

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

Just do us all a favor and don't procreate. No need passing down that nonsense to a hapless child.

Re: Why is there not anymore good sitcoms??
 

Sounds like my father. Hey, I just discovered I'm questioning my political views as told to me by my parents and need direction in my life! Sweet! Teenage rebellion! It's like I'm 15! I'm only a decade plus late!

Anyway, as to the question, it seems that the sitcom world is currently reigned by Chuck Lorre. While I like TBBT, his rather lowbrow style seems to be pretty much the norm for sitcoms now. Eventually, in spite of giving it a shot, I found the irritating vulgarity on Two Broke Girls so unfunny that I simply stopped bothering with it after a few episodes. While I was never into Seinfeld or Friends, they were the sitcoms of the era. In the 2000s, I actually got into Boy Meets World reruns, of all things. Some of the lessons were a little sanctimonious, but the mild surrealism of the humor clicked with me.
