Both this and what Nathan Fieldcяab said can be true. I agree those two are funny, but Lucille Ball was a comic genius and revolutionary.
wasnt she really close with Reagan?
Based on what I've seen in a quick round of web searching, they were friends when both were actors trying to make it in Hollywood. I can find nothing about what she thought about him as a person or politician, or her relationship with him once he ran for office, other than an anecdote about him and Nancy Reagan being late to a dinner party Ball was attending because they thought they'd seen a UFO.

I'll go ahead and partially recant because I agree Lisa Kudrow is pretty funny in the right role. Ironically enough, I think she would've been a better pick to play Lucy in that Prime movie than Nicole Kidman
Lucy is pretty dumb, but it is slapstick type humor. Friends was a defining piece of culture for lots of shallow people. Which is worse, something that was supposed to be dumb and outrageous or an updated Melrose Place? I don't know. I suppose some could argue it's more intellectual than Three's Company.
I still want to know why so many decent sitcoms didn't make this list. I realize the OP isn't an old guy. But surely you whippersnappers (sp?) grew up in a time when you could still see most of old stuff like Mash, Married with Children, Jeffersons, Good Times, Sanford and Son, All in the Family, Maude, Mary Tyler Moore, WKRP, Welcome Back Kotter, The Odd Couple, Will & Grace, Golden Girls, Cheers, Soap. Shit I don't know. There was some pretty creative shit that brought conflict front and center to the nation's conscience via humor. Even newer shit like Schitt's Creek would work - but it would probably win.

nope
I always liked the ones in front of live audiences best. I would say all in the family, good times, Sanford and son and married with children would probably be my favorite.
Haha. That show ruled in the day. It ended up jumping the shark after a few seasons, but it was Brooklyn then. Characters like Travolta’s Vinnie Barbarino and then Horchak and Freddie Boom Boom Washington, what’s not to love?

this is the second time I've heard this show brought up in the last week, and also the second time in the last thirty years. Some real Baader-Meinhof shit

I can still remember the theme song and sing it for Welcome Back Mr. Kotter. I remember characters but I couldn't tell you the plot of any episode except they were way too old to be in high school still and Vinnie was as dumb as a pile of bricks.
It's funny how many awards Mad About You won and the culture seems to have completely forgotten it.
I forget about it. I can usually find something nice to say about most 90s sitcoms but even in it's time I had no time for Mad About You.
I watched it at the time, but I have no strong feelings about it. I’ve realized since then, though, that I appreciate both Richard Kind and Paul Reiser much more now than I did then.
