I won't say the absolute favorite, but probably running about third behind Get
Smart and Married: With Children.

I don't find it too surprising to find G.A. fans on a list like this though. A
lot of the humor is in the way they play with words, especially making fun of
Eva Gabor's Hungarian accent and often talking about the credit or subtitles on
the screen.
