It sounds like someone might have a lot of binge watching ahead of them. At the very least, find some syndicated reruns of "Cheers". You likely won't regret watching it. It's one of the best '80s series and sitcoms of all time.

LA Law


Do you prefer this over "Matlock"? Along the same matching lines, do you prefer "Saint Elsewhere" over "Trapper John MD"?

My thoughts:


The Cosby Show or Family Ties? The Cosby Show
Cheers or Newhart? Cheers
Growing Pains or Who's The Boss? Who's The Boss?
Designing Women or The Golden Girls? The Golden Girls
Dallas or Dynasty? Dynasty
LA Law or Saint Elsewhere? LA Law
Hill Street Blues or Miami Vice? Miami Vice
Moonlighting or Remington Steele? Moonlighting
Magnum PI or Simon & Simon? Magnum PI
The A-Team or MacGyver? The A-Team
60 Minutes or 20/20? 20/20
Jeopardy or Wheel Of Fortune? Wheel of Fortune. However, if we were doing this for today, it would be Jeopardy! At the time, you retired after five days, while you could go shopping on Wheel and from September 1983 up, Wheel aired twice daily. The Jeopardy! categories were more straightforward, many more clues wouldn't be revealed by the end of the game, and the material wasn't as challenging.

I prefer Saint Elsewhere.


It's my token doctor drama. I'm not a big fan of the genre.

Whoa tough choices!!! Went for the "neither" vote for 3 of the questions as I really have no opinion. Perhaps I was too young for those shows growing up.

I omitted some of them because I never saw the shows in the choices given back in the day or in reruns during later decades.
