    Okay list - Sports Night had to go - some of the humor worked but the drama/conflict was contrived and over written - an AS weakness - AS shows never stand the test of time.

    Another USA find. A Felicity Huffman show I could stand to watch. The satire has proved to be a Nostradamus-esque glimpse into what the sports/entertainment juggernaut SportsCenter has become.

    This was a great show. Kyle Chandler, now of FNL fame, was awesome in this role. They took a stupid, unoriginal premise and made it compelling.
  7. IDK. I really just always thought Larisa Oleynik was really hot.

    By far my favorite "Nicktoon." The awkward everyman qualities of its main character, coupled with the show's imagination makes this a show a classic.

    Another show a little before my time. Marnette Patterson is on a different list. Thank you USA, thank you.

    Discovered this show only after finding Michael Ian Black completely hilarious on all those VH1 decade shows.

    Short-lived, but not forgotten. Unfortunately, this show aired while I was in middle school. Looking back I had no idea how tragically accurate some of the caricatures on the show would turn out to be.
  12. This show is probably so underated its overrated, but I don't care. Anything with David Cross and Appollo Creed will rank high on my list.

    Great show. A little before my time, but I've seen just about ever episode on USA reruns.

    I feel like this show should be on most 21-30 yr old's lists. And with the recent super stardom of some of its cast probably is...because ppl want to look cool.

    The Chauncey Billups of Comedy, in that he is well respected among his professional peers (check out the Bob Saget Roast) and largely slept on by the pop**ation at large. Norm is one of the most underrated comedians of our time. This also ranks high on my greatest shows of all-time list.
