Worst long running TV show ever

I hated the Cosby show, but liked the people on it. It was just way over the top smarmy and too perfect for me. The "problems" these people had were on the whole amazingly bland and, as always quickly cured, and by the most loving and understanding parents possible on this or any world.

The Cosby family made all other families look like sh*t, and redefined tension and problems into nothing at all. I remember reading once that watching the Cosby show made everyone else's life look like an utter failure, and I have to agree. The Cosbys were friggin pod people,and they gave me the creeps.

This is part of the reason that at the time Roseanne was good. It came out at a time when Cosby ruled the airwaves as basically the anti-Cosby (in truth Married with Children was the first anti-Cosby, but nobody really even knew it existed at that point since Fox was the equivalent of UPN at the time)

That's a big reason I loved Married with Children so much, and that I think most everybody who liked it did. It was the anti-Cosby, and we needed an anti-Cosby so, so much.
