This is four years old but I doubt many have changed since then. Some interesting points:
-Buffy is included
-The Next Generation is the only Star Trek Show included.
-I would have traded Bewitched for Sgt. Bilko
-Looks like only American shows were eligible
-I have good taste

Whoa - I'm surprised to see Sopranos at 5?!? I like the show a lot but I just finished season 6 and it wasn't that great. Also, whats with X-Files at 37? Thats in my top 10 easily. Yeah, they fucked the ending, but right around season 4, that was easily the best show on TV, nest to re-runs of Seinfeld of course.
If the Simpsons ended its run after season 8, it would (and should) have been in the top 3.
