Seinfeld wins. I made a mistake in naming the thread. This thread will have the 3rd, 4th, and 5th rounds plus the finals of the tournament. Here's today's match. Scrubs vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoID=1178221235Air Dates: October 2, 2001-Present Episodes: 123 Cast: Zach Braff (Dr. John Michael "J.D." Dorian), Sarah Chalke (Dr. Elliot Reed), Donald Faison (Dr. Christopher Duncan Turk), Neil Flynn (The Janitor), Ken Jenkins (Dr. Robert "Bob" Kelso), John C. McGinley (Dr. Percival "Perry" Cox), and Judy Reyes (Nurse Carla Espinosa). Premise: The show focuses on the professional and personal lives of several characters working at Sacred Heart Hospital, a fictional teaching hospital in an unspecified American city. It uses first-person narration, unusually verbose characters, abrupt segues between subplots, breakneck pace, and surreal escapism (usually presented as the thoughts and reveries of the main characters), counterpointed by poignant scenes where the characters address how doctors deal with death and issues in their personal lives. The combination of these diverse elements distinguishes it from other series. vs. WKRP in Cincinnati www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2onN37uZjEAir Dates: September 18, 1978-April 21, 1982 Episodes: 90 Cast: Gary Sandy (Andy Travis), Gordon Jump (Arthur Carlson), Howard Hesseman (Dr. Johhny Fever), Richard Sanders (Les Nessman), Loni Anderson (Jennifer Marlowe), Frank Bonner (Herb Tarlek), Tim Reid (Venus Flytrap), Jan Smithers (Bailey Quarters), and Carol Bruce (Mrs. Carlson). Premise: The series was based upon show creator Hugh Wilson's memories of working in advertising as a client of Atlanta, Georgia, classic AOR radio station 94.1 WQXI-FM, now known as pop station Star94. New programming director Andy Travis tries to turn around struggling radio station WKRP, despite the well-meaning efforts of the mostly-incompetent staff, including: the bumbling, though kind-hearted station manager, Arthur Carlson Herb Tarlek, the oily sales manager Les Nessman, the clueless, overly-earnest news director super receptionist Jennifer Marlowe enthusiastic, initially shy junior employee Bailey Quarters spaced-out veteran disk jockey Johnny Caravella, who adopts the on-air persona of the manic, usually outrageous "Dr. Johnny Fever" To help bolster ratings, Travis hires a new disk jockey: the more mellow Gordon Sims Lurking in the background and making an occasional appearance is the station's owner (and Carlson's mother), ruthless business tycoon Mrs. Carlson. Vote now. Ends at noon tomorrow.

Scrubs. Does WKRP qualify as a Cinderella in this dance?

Don't hate me, but I could careless about either.
But, if I had to pick. I'd pick Family Guy.

WKRP. I hate Scrubs with a passion. Never found a single aspect of it funny AT ALL.

OH crap! I just so screwed up! I aciddentally posted the wrong match. Any votes from the match I posted yesterday will not count. I'm so sorry for this mistake. WKRP In Cincinnati lost to Cheers last round and i accidentally posted WKRP In Cincinnati instead of Cheers. Sorry for the mistake. Here's the match that was suppost to be posted. Scrubs vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoID=1178221235Air Dates: October 2, 2001-Present Episodes: 123 Cast: Zach Braff (Dr. John Michael "J.D." Dorian), Sarah Chalke (Dr. Elliot Reed), Donald Faison (Dr. Christopher Duncan Turk), Neil Flynn (The Janitor), Ken Jenkins (Dr. Robert "Bob" Kelso), John C. McGinley (Dr. Percival "Perry" Cox), and Judy Reyes (Nurse Carla Espinosa). Premise: The show focuses on the professional and personal lives of several characters working at Sacred Heart Hospital, a fictional teaching hospital in an unspecified American city. It uses first-person narration, unusually verbose characters, abrupt segues between subplots, breakneck pace, and surreal escapism (usually presented as the thoughts and reveries of the main characters), counterpointed by poignant scenes where the characters address how doctors deal with death and issues in their personal lives. The combination of these diverse elements distinguishes it from other series. vs. Cheers www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVn0l4Uo9C0&mode=related&search=Air Dates: September 30, 1982–May 20, 1993 Episodes: 273 Cast: Ted Danson (Sam Malone), Shelley Long (Diane Chambers), Kirstie Alley (Rebecca Howe), Nicholas Colasanto (Ernie "Coach" Pantusso), Rhea Perlman (Carla Tortelli), John Ratzenberger (Cliff Clavin), Woody Harrelson ("Woody" Boyd), Kelsey Grammer (Frasier Crane), Bebe Neuwirth (Lilith Sternin), and George Wendt (Norm Peterson). Premise: Nearly all of Cheers took place in the front room of the bar, only occasionally stepping into the rear pool room or the bar's office. In fact, Cheers didn't show any action outside the bar until later into the series. Cheers had some running gags, such as Norm arriving in the bar greeted by a loud "Norm!" Early episodes generally followed Sam's antics with his various women, following a variety of romantic comedy clichés to get out of whatever relationship troubles he was in that particular episode. As the show progressed and Sam got into more serious relationships the general tone switched to comedy on Sam settling down into a more monogamous lifestyle. Throughout the series, larger story arcs began to develop that spanned multiple episodes or seasons interspersed with smaller themes and one-off episodes. Start voting away. It ends tomorrow at noon.

Cheers is most likely the superior show, but I've never been a huge fan. So my vote goes to:
SCRUBS.

I'm old enough to remember Cheers, and I still vote for Scrubs. Much better show, IMO.
