    This is Frasier's first non-animated opponent. A tough matchup for me. Both excellent series. But I cannot vote against F&G. I'm actually doing a rewatch of it at the present moment. It's even better than I remember it. Pure perfection. I would love to see it make the decade final

    It's hard. I don't know why I have such a hard time contrasting shows against Fraiser. F&G probably deserved a long run more... but it's ultimately too...incomplete...for me to call it perfect. Not that Fraiser was perfection, either. It's just that it was a strong show in different ways.

    There's one hole in every revolution, large or small. And it's one word long.. people. No matter how big the idea they all stand under, people are small and weak and cheap and frightened. It's people that kill every revolution.

    I love Both, but I had to go with Frasier. F and G was a great show, but it needed polishing. Frasier is just an awesome show.

    It was far more polished. Plus, the premise was a bit more noteworthy than another high school sitcom, even one with exceptional characterizations and bold plotlines. I can't seem to put my finger on my reasons for not really loving Fraiser. I do feel that somehow F&G had the potential to be better... but, yeah, I still don't think that I'll be able to justify voting that way.

    Well it was canceled (those fuckers!) after only 12 episodes. And for the life of me I can't figure out why. Such an amazing series, so promising. It could've easily went on for a few seasons. I find that simply depressing that we will not have any more stories with these fantastic characters. But, like I said in a previous poll, we have this one season of near perfection. Nothing can tarnish that.

    Well, I'm sure that Rogan will keep trying.

    Frasier for sure. Greatest sitcom I'd ever seen.

    I voted for the geeks because I hated Frasier.
