  1. Friends
  2. Two And A Half Men (Charlie Sheen days)
  3. South Park
  4. Family Guy
  5. Big Bang Theory
  

  
  We really wouldn't get on together!
  
  2 & 4 have never appealed enough for me to watch but the other three would probably be my 3 most detested and least funny programmes I've ever seen.
  
  Still, each to their own and all that.

  My forgotten or under represented five:
  
  1 Colin's Sandwich
  2 Clarence
  3 Police Squad
  4 Diff'rent Strokes
  5 Sorry
  
  Phoenix Nights and Drop The Dead Donkey far less obscure but still underrated.

  I can't make a list less than six, sorry. However there are only two shows that are my favourite throughout their run.
  
  They are (alphabetically):
  
  Friends (all 10 seasons)
  Golden Girls (all 7 seasons)
  
  The others are (alphabetically):
  
  The Big Bang Theory seasons 1-4 (Penny sleeps with Raj)
  Cheers seasons 1-5 (Diane leaves the show)
  Curb Your Enthusiasm seasons 1-6 (Larry and Cheryl split)
  Frasier seasons 1-9 (Daphne gets with Niles)
