LA Law
Saved by the Bell
BTVSAT - Round 1: 1980s (Bracket 6)
OH COME ON PEOPLE!!! Saved by the Bell has three votes already???
I was a kid when I was watching LA Law and even then I knew it was better television than those guys. Screech was the most interesting character of them all btw.
Margaret Emmie Mackey Catoe, you are, have been, and always will be my soulmate, and I love you.
Con todo mi corazon, por todo de mis dias. And I always will, in this life and into the next.
August 2, 1947 - September 24, 2010
Two words: Kelly Kapowski.
I've never liked any law/cop/csi type shows.
SBTB was the epitome of my teenhoodIt is cheesy but it's actually really funny.
No brainer.

Remember, Remember, The Fifth of November, The Gunpowder, Treason, and Plot.
I never got the appeal of Saved by the Bell. ~shrug~
I loved LA Law.
Don't like procedurals, never have, which is why I will vote against Law & Order, in all its incarnations, once I find it in one of these polls.
Believe it or not, it wasn't nominated.
YES! I feel vindicated in my perpetual disdain for Dick Wolf.
And now LA Law is losing?
Come on people!!
LA Law ... the Venus Butterfly !!! Hello ?!!!??
Gee, if I'd have known the polls were going to go with Saved by the Bell, I'd have nominated DeGrassi!

Moving to this thread an exchange prompted by Cheers pulling way ahead of Growing Pains in another poll --Well, the competition appears to be gaining here, too, at least. Still, it IS rather baffling... is Screech really what's passing for a reason? Maybe it's mostly --Dude... Screetch is winning in another poll !
Not just Kelly, although she is very cuteI have the entire Saved by the Bell series on DVD and I think it's a ton of fun. I periodically rewatch it. It's pure '90s (even though technically it's an '80s show), so I guess nostalgia plays into that.
I understand about nostalgia but really... against LA Law?
LA Law was a hallmark show for NBC. It was an issues show, it was a "first" in a lot of areas, and was socially relevant a lot of the time. They dealt with some very hot topics and featured a great primary and secondary cast.

Just not my cup o' tea, sorry. Not a big fan of lawyer series.
Ditto.
Especially considering I was a teenager when these 2 shows were on. LA Law was something "old people" watched.
I can understand nostalgia for the 90s, (grunge) but I have none for the 80s... and that is definitely where I'd classify Saved By the Bell. I recall how nauseated my 15 y.o. self was when its original version was on the Disney Channel.
Well that's where Saved by the Bell began, but its best episodes were the early to mid-'90s. I still have very fond memories of watching that show in the afternoons.
I'm just saying that the spirit of the program, fundamentally, was very 1980s, IMO.
This poll closes tomorrow morning, so get your votes in if you haven't already.
Saved by the Bell is moving on to Round 2, having received 14 votes (56.00%).
