There have been plenty of good situation comedies. The ones in the sixties weren't necessarily the best,
but I think they stand out because of how out their their situations were. Other than in the sixties, TV shows have all been about the same. Friends, families, or coworkers get together and have funny things happen. But in the sixties, the situations were just bizarre. Its hard to believe that so many of these exhisted. Let's check out some of them.Hogan's Heroes - A German prisoner of war camp.
Bewitched - A man married to a witch.
F-Troop - A Western America fort in the 1800's
Gilligan's Island - Shipwrecked on an Island
My Mother the Car - His mother is reincarnated as a car
The Flying Nun - Her hat allows her to fly
I Dream of Jeannie - A Genie in a Bottle
The Munsters / Adams Family - Families of Monsters
Batman - A superhero comedy
Beverly Hillbillies - Poor people strike oil
Since then - Friends, Seinfeld, Big Bang, etc, were good shows, but had pretty normal settings. We need a few of those weird shows from the 60's.
