Dutch 874 Posted June 1, 2013 Dinosaurs is on Netflix now, it doesn't really hold up. I loved it when I was young, but now it just seems cheesy. Yeah, I'm going basically off my child hood. A lot of shows I use to watch when I was younger I wouldn't give the time of my day now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Phailadelphia Posted June 1, 2013 Are you serious? BBT is great. I enjoy how they're nerds who say and do nerdy things. Its like, thats not normal! They give you ONE normal person to relate with and then make fun of all the others. I don't find it funny, smart, or very creative. It's just like "hey look at these really weird people lol aren't they weird" Community does a much better job of humanizing nerdy/dorky people and giving you ways to relate to them. The comedy is a lot more intelligent too imo. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted June 1, 2013 I used to love the Drew Carey show, as well. I wouldn't put it anywhere near the Top 5, but I figured I would give it a mention. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BwareDWare94 723 Posted June 1, 2013 Dinosaurs was fucking hilarious...when they get all drugged up by eating that plant they found in the woods, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Natas is right though, IMO anyway, it doesn't age well. I realize this isn't a sitcom, but I used to watch Little Bear as a kid ALL THE TIME. Tried watching it on the throwback Nick channel and my Lord it was awful. Maybe that just has to do with the age gap, but I still appreciate a lot of other kid shows I used to watch.

Bay 2,003 Posted June 1, 2013 (edited) Nope I did and loved it. Was going to watch Franklin(saw it on one of those kid's channels late one night) a few weeks ago lmao. Just to see if I could handle watching it at this age. Edited June 1, 2013 by Bay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RANGA+ 1,210 Posted June 2, 2013 Am I the only one who watched Arthur? That was my shit because Arthur was a book nerd like me. Oh man, I loved Arthur! Used to watch it everyday as soon as I got home from school, because it was on at 3.30 Monday to Fridays...still remember haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch 874 Posted June 2, 2013 Arthur was the show back in the day. I loved it. Everyone knew the best characters on the show were the Tibble twins though. Dennis the Menace X 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Milla4Prez63 678 Posted June 3, 2013 That 70s Show was always my favorite, but I normally don't watch sitcoms. If you count Arrested Development, then throw that in there too since I just started watching that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blotsfan 2,112 Posted July 13, 2013 I'm bumping this thread to mention how The Venture Bros is quite possibly the best show on tv now and if you haven't seen it, start watching it in order. It'd be at worst 3rd on my list if I had remembered it when I made mine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BwareDWare94 723 Posted July 13, 2013 The Big Bang Theory is entertaining, nonetheless. It is absolutely unrealistic, but it's light and easy to watch when I just want something that'll put me in a good mood. Aside from that, though, it doesn't hold up against great sitcoms like How I Met Your Mother and Scrubs, sitcoms that touch on real world issues and real characters. Yes, they're all exaggerations, but that's part of the fun. We've all met a Ted Mosby, a codependent couple like Marshall and Lily, a womanizer like Barney, and the excessively independent girl in Robin. We've all met each character from Scrubs. Every character in a good sitcom is two sided. Everybody in BBT is one dimensional, but that keeps it light, which puts it in an Everybody Loves Raymond type of category. Easy to watch and be entertained, but it'll never move you, and it should never be considered a great in terms of realism and transcendence. It goes nowhere because it's found a niche.
