Not really... If you're going to include Coach, you have to include Seinfeld - which also aired in '89. 

Nobody watched Seinfeld in 89.

I think I watched every show on this list.

I watched all of them except:

227
Amen
It's a Living
Small Wonder - I don't even recognize this title. 

 

And I honestly can NOT believe Jefferson's is not on that list.  That's mind-boggling.    

Head of the Class was decent. 

Annnnd It was the first show that kinda sorta touched on blacks and whites like, together, getting along.  It wasn't just black characters and white characters...it was their "relationships"

 

Valerie had spin-off or was a spin off of "Hogan Family"

 

Lot's of great theme songs.  Which shows had the best theme songs?

My favs:

1.) Cheers - can we all agree this is the best theme song/intro? 

(large gap)

Honorable Mention:
Golden Girls
Facts of Life (explains premise of show)
Different Strokes (explains the premise of show)
Full House
Who's the Boss

I think coach was the very best casting job I can think of. All the characters were just perfect matches for their respective actors. I mean sure, the daughter and her gay boyfriend easily could have died in a fiery plane crash. But they weren't main characters anyway.

Dobber, Coach, - Jerry Van Dyyke was perfect. 

 

Not trying to hijack, but honestly? Seinfeld could have been cast with any four other actors. They even made fun of that fact in its own episode. It was all about the writing.

 

coach? I honestly can't imagine that show without the big three at least.

I almost stepped in it by wondering why a bunch of shows I liked weren't on the list.... sitcoms....go it. I had a half dozen shows in mind that were action.

This post makes me think about the TV draft we had and lot of stuff brought up was mentioned in it.

Bosom Buddies would be banned for being groomers today.

Nah, it would be cancelled by libs for delegitimizing the trans community plus, white privilege, male patriarchy, white men get away with anything, etc.
