Best B Rated Sitcoms of All Time

My List of Favorite Sitcoms that Aren't that Great, but I Can't Stop Watching

One by One

This isn't a great sitcom by any standards, it ran for five seasons but may run for eternity in syndication. The show stars Kyla Pratt, another Disney graduate, who has been involved in such movies as Dr. Doolittle and Flex Alexander, who was once a back up dancer for Salt-n-Pepa. It was one of those lost shows on UPN that ended up CW that actually survived through syndication, unlike shows like The Parkers that spin heavily on BET mainly.

The downside if that the relationship between Breanna and Spirit is formulaic and entirely too familiar to viewers. The upside is the uniqueness in which the comedy involving Breanna's father's role in her life unfolds. The show never dealt with serious themes, like many of the sitcoms now on the CW, but is compelling enough to keep you watching multiple episodes back to back.

The King of Queens

This is one of those shows you ended up watching in syndication, but loved enough to at least try to watch the new episodes, as was the case with Everybody Loves Raymond or Seinfeld. Of course by the time you get around to watching it they take it off the air, but the genius of mixing Leah Remini, Jerry Stiller and Kevin James is timeless. Though Jerry Stiller could hold the show down alone by himself it was the chemistry between all of the actors and brilliant writing that got your attention. The schemes are reminiscent of The Honeymooners and even I Love Lucy, and the execution is priceless.

Sabrina the Teenage Witch

This is one of those rare occasions when a show actually moves from ABC. It's appeal is really difficult to describe, but it never felt like it was stuck in the time period in which it ran, like Mad About You or Suddenly Susan. I watched as many episodes as I could, as often as I could. What ticked me off those was the finale; there was no real closure to be found in it. It was like, "ok, we're tired, it was nice knowing you". They had Punky Brewster, Soleil Moon Frye, towards the end, and Caroline Rhea had an interesting run at being a talk show hostess for a year.
