I changed All in the Family to Sammy's Visit, as I feel that it is a better episode than the 1 I had there before. I entered that one in a rush.

What about about half a dozen other episodes of All in the Family...


But there's nothing else that makes me laugh as much as Chuckles Bites the Dust.

Of what you listed, "The Contest" is the funniest episode. But I'd have liked to see you include "Bowling" or "'A,' My Name is Alex."

The best album of the year so far. "Past Gone" is the best song of the year as well. Check out Mike Stud's debut album on iTunes.

Before I saw the list, I knew the answer was "Chuckles".

Such great episodes. I voted for The Cosby Show episode. I love that episode. "I want to watch television" - Keshia Knight Pulliam's line delivery cracks up. That wasn't the year she was nominated for an Emmy, but with that episode, I'm still glad she got one eventually and became the youngest person to get nominated for a Primetime Emmy.

I would have replaced the Family Guy episode with something from 30 Rock (maybe "Hardball". "Reunion", "Apollo Apollo" or a live episode). Otherwise, from what I've seen, this is a good list...although, it's always tough to figure out ten so kudos for trying?

Of those proably "The Contest" for me. However, "Bowling" from Malcolm in the Middle should be on here, that episode is classic.

I second " Good Grief."  " Pier Pressure" would be another great one from AD.

Well, I haven't see any of the old comedies. The oldest show I've ever watched is Friends. And I haven't even watched Arrested Development yet.

So I have to go with Remedial Chaos Theory. Seems excessive, but I'm certain it'll be in the conversation if a topic like this resurfaces in, like 5 years. Hopefully, I'll have watched AD by then at least.
