I'd actually put The West Wing or Mad Men as my top shows right now. But of your options, I picked Cheers. Friends is also a favorite.

You may appreciate Nanny G a bit more if you see her original appearance in Season 10 of Cheers. (One Hugs, the Other Doesn't)

Exactly the same for me. Apart from one thing, I've never seen Mad Men so I'd say The Sopranos is my 2nd favourite below The West Wing. Out of your list, I picked Cheers too.

When you say 'American-set', do you just mean US shows? If so, I have a whole list that I love!

I chose 'other', as there are many i like that weren't listed and Breaking Bad would probably top it at the moment. So many US shopws to choose from over the years though. Random choice including Chicago Code (even though i personally liked it) given it's quick cancellation. :D

I'd go with The Simpsons out of those listed, as it'll always be a classic.

The Simpsons for comedy from the list but overall would like to add Dexter, Sons Of Anarchy and Breaking Bad

I prefer American Dad to Family Guy. I voted for South Park though...a show that has actually improved through the years than gotten worse.
I love Scrubs also and currently OBSESSED with Big Bang Theory (totally in love with Leonard Hofstadter)

Aw man, I missed Cheers up there.
Good to see that no one has voted for Joey.

I voted "other". I enjoy some of those shows but none is a favorite. Over the years there have been many. I'll list some standouts.
Rome. (multi national I think.)
Firefly.
Seinfeld.
Scrubs.
Big bang theory (i notice many Frasier jokes in BBT)
MASH.
F troop.
Star Trek.
Smallville.
Buffy the vampire slayer.
WKRP in Cincinatti.
Metalocalypse.
3rd rock from the sun.
Bones.
Batman.

Hogan's heroes.

I voted for Cheers as, along with Frasier, it's probably my joint favourite TV show, but there are many others that I really like.
