[QUOTE="Crimson, post: 280858, member: 5079"] I'm a fan of TBNS and NEWHART, and think both would likely make it into my Top 20 Favorite Sitcoms list. I waver back-and-forth on which I prefer; currently I would say TBNS. NEWHART started surprisingly rocky, considering Bob was already a sitcom vet. The show's first season is not very good. It took dumping that awful Kirk and dull Leslie, replacing them with Stephanie & Michael, for the show to find its groove. But even still, I think TBNS was more consistent and had a more rounded ensemble. I [I]think [/I]it was the opposite. The first season or two has a shoddy, overly bright look; I think it was bad lighting and cheap video tape process. Those first two seasons are like 1950s kinescope chintzy looking. I'm not sure if the show switched to film or just improved their techniques, but subsequent seasons look much better. [/QUOTE]
