Piece of garbage at number one.

Knew it’d be a nonsense liberal list.

Overall, not a bad list. I would have added, Newhart along with The Bob Newhart Show.

I Love Lucy should be #1 because it did things other shows didn't do at the time: it was shot on film and used three cameras like a real movie production.

If it doesn't have "Bonanza" in the top five, it ain't a real list.

I would add "Game of Thrones" primarily because of how it took television production to a new level in today's age of the affordable massive-screen HDTV.

To watch GoT on a 65" 4k TV with a some theater surround sound is just a wonder to behold. This is part of what's killing the movies. They just can't compete with this.

“Death Valley Days” told the definitive American morality tales and influenced many. List was compiled by leftist editors.

No way am I clicking through a list probably influenced by an agenda of framing the thought process.

My votes:

The first to years of WKRP in Cincinnati. After that it got somewhat politically correct.

The Ozzie and Harriet Show That show has a lot to do with the general acceptance of Rock music and was entertainment the family watched together and enjoyed.

Sonny and Cher

The Smothers Brothers

Charlie's Angels

Leverage
