Underrated sitcom


I loved watching this show growing up! Season 7 and 8 were my least favorite because that was when Larry and Jennifer got married. I liked the final episode of it but Seasons 1-6 were the best especially 3-6. Perfect Strangers is by far better than most sitcoms today.

I agree. Sadly, most sitcoms today aren't as dynamic as PF was. They set the bar pretty high.

How was it underrated? It was one of the most popular shows at the time and ran for nearly a decade.

Great show, before all the politically correct filth and black ghetto culture crap became the norm.

Wow schnibbler, you sound like a scared little white boy. Are you scared? What are you so scared of?

Now I'm as smooth as a chocolate swirl, but I dance a little funky so watch it, girl!

Show was dumb.

The first few seasons were very funny, and then the show really went downhill.

This show will always have a special place in my heart, because it's the first show I remember watching. I was about 3-5 years old during its later seasons and remember screeching out "THE BALKI SHOW IS ON!!"

It is downright amazing to me how this show hasn't really had much of a syndication run. And I don't think all of the seasons are available to stream, which is maddening!

It had a heart, which 99% of shows lack now. I think that's why so many people still have fond memories for it, even if it was corny at times (like any sitcom of the time).
