Favorite Sitcom of all time?

Some buddies and I were talking at work the other day about what the best sitcoms of all time were....we are all three from different generations, so there were quite a variety of names thrown out there. I'd like to get a broader opinion, and this site gets the most traffic out of any I visit.

So, lets hear your opinions. If the thread is well received and gets quite a few nominees, I'll try and create a poll later on of the top ten, so that we can narrow it down to one.

I'll start by mentioning Seinfeld and The Simpsons.

Seinfeld, I think got off to a slow start the first season or so, but really picked up and had a good run. Very nice finale too with lots of returning characters.

The Simpsons has really fell off the last decade or so, but in its first decade, it was really wonderful.

THIS. It was ahead of its time.

Didn't see anyone mention Welcome Back Kotter...so I'd throw that out there as well.

I'm not quite sure what Shameless would be labeled as, but it is a wonderful show. William H. Macy is a great actor, and he plays the Frank character perfectly.

Again, not my favorite sitcom (not bad I guess) but a kickass theme song.

But for my real answer, Seinfeld. The US Office close second.
