I love sitcoms...watch old Cheers reruns at 9 each night M-F; Clifford Clavin is the best thing about that show IMO. Strange, I missed so many of these episodes back in the early 80s when I was younger. The sitcom is not dead, but has changed to fit the culture-they are still full of true stereotypes and some are awesome and mindless, perfect ending after a day's work. We like Modern Family, Bent, Happy Endings, Mike & Molly, Big Bang, Rules of Engagement, and more...the point is too that they reflect strongly on American society. We are a generous, self-absorbed, materialistic, kind, homophobic, and largely clueless people on world affairs and geography with our troops all over the world. We don't even pay for our wars, but hand the money to the oil companies and corporations and can't figure where the deficit comes from. Now, that's real comedy.
