Best Sitcom Bracket on Twitter

A few nominees for “our bracket,” beyond those already posted. I don’t expect “the committee” to agree with all of these. A couple aren’t necessarily personal preferences, but have a profile worth consideration.

(Also the Twitter bracket has plenty that are worthy, but not necessarily the seedings/pairings.)

WKRP in Cincinnati
Get Smart
Soap
Police Squad!
Reno 911!
Night Court
Laverne & Shirley possibly underrated
WKRP was so good. Johnny Fever and Loni Anderson? Yes.
 
If we want to get really ambitious, we could try our best to place series in regions where the show is set. That'd have to be secondary, because there are a lot on east coast/NY and west coast/Cali, not as many set in south.

First four match ups to consider

30 Rock vs Letterkenny

Casual vs Orange is the New Black
Both these shows belong in best sitcom list as they helped change the sitcom/TV broadcast game forever with making chord cutting legit for the quality of sitcom you got.

Edit: South Park has to be on any list for TV sitcoms as well

Without even looking at the brackets, it should be Seinfeld and Cheers in the finals with Seinfeld winning a close one.

Edit: Cheers and Seinfeld in the same bracket??? And I liked Frasier but it was not funnier than the show it was spun off from.

Controversial take of the day... I have tried to watch The Office because my kids (and everyone else) quote it all the time. I just don't think it is funny.

I'll duck and run for cover now.
I’ve been watching a lot of Frasier lately and I think it is even with Seinfeld. It is a very different funny but it is well done (and holds up).

Have you came across the episode where Frasier and Niles run a restuarant? Slapstick gold if I remember correctly.
 
This list is all over the place, but good for reference

Using this and others suggestion we are 3 from being at 68. I'll still list suggestions after we are full because we need to have a last four out and next four out so we should come up with at least 76 shows for consideration.

Letterkenny has a Syracuse-esque, first four Cinderella run written all over it. That show is absolutely incredible.
