I have to say Married...With Children is f'n' hilarious when you've been smoking but the witty writing of Seinfeld just might propel it into the spotlight of sitcoms.

Two completely different types of shows. No comparison.

BOTH RULE!

Married with Children is one of the worst shows I've ever seen. Seinfeld is a little better, but I wouldn't watch either.

Did your parents have any children that lived?

No, no, no.

This is a common misconception.

Seven was VERY early in the series, and they quickly got rid of him. The series hit MANY more highs after Seven.

The series ran from 87 to 97.

Seven was in the 92-93 season.

Buck retired in 95.

Sadly, he died one year later. :(

Seinfeld is classic and written in such a genius way, it's the number one show of all time.


Looking back on MWC, when it first came out it was good, but look back on some of those same old episodes you thought were great when first aired, a lot of MWC's jokes relied on taboo(at the time) sexual references and things of that nature. The show still had its good moments, but no where near as good as Seinfeld.

:thumbsup:

Actually, one of my favorite episodes was one featuring Seven.

It's the one where the family goes to the park to have a cookout nfor Seven's birthday, and finds a rich, snobby family has reserved the entire park.

What a hilarious episode!

I can't stand Seinfeld the person nor the stupid jingles between scenes (which are pretty often). So by default...

But isn't it ironic how there was an edisode about George wanting to name his kid Seven.. and in MWC there WAS a kid named Seven!
