    Default The Best Sitcoms and their cliches

    Behold the glorious thread of sitcoms...
    What's your favorite sitcom and let's contemplate about the cliches you'll find in about every sitcom you can find.
    Here are all the sitcoms that I watch: Good Times, Sanford &Son, The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Martin, Married With Children, The Simpsons, The Cosby Show, That 70's Show, Sister Sister, Family Matters and the Suite Life of Zack and Cody

    Out of all of those, I watch the Cosby Show the least. Sometimes the show can get ridicuously corny. My favorite out of the bunch is a tie between Good Times and the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. good Times is just a classic and Will and carlton are the best two characters you can find on any show.

    Oops I forgot all about Family Matters. Steve Urkel lives forever, but Stefon stays in my heart.

    Now with the cliches, if you've seen a sitcom you've probably seen an episode with these things in them.

    #1 There's at least one dumb character in the show F.E. Kelso

    #2 Someone accidentally kills or loses a friend's pet and tries to buy another one before he/she finds out. F.E. Martin's mother's parrot dies

    #3 The main characters meets some kind of royalty and the girl will almost get married to him F.E. Raven Baxter to African Prince

    #4 There's some sort of Talent show episode F.E. The Simpsons

    #5 There's an episode based on Christmas or any other holiday F.E> every sitcom

    #6 One of the main characters wins a ton of money and then does something foolish to lose it F.E. Steve Urkel makes the $500,000 basket but then gets excited and makes the scoreboard fall somehow

    #7 There's almost an entire episode edicated to a dream sequence F.E. Jay Jay dremas that he was white

    Oops ran out well someone can continue if they wish.

    Sitcom simply means situation comedy. Animated or not.
