Here are the ten main characters throughout the 8 seasons in order from my least favorite to favorite.
#10 -
Stanley Roper. Don't let the picture fool you, he was very mean.#9 -
The slutty old lady neighbor.#8 -
Furley. How annoying can you get?#7 -
Cindy Snow. A pathetic attempt at a replacement.#6 -
Janet. She was a bit of a buzzkill at times.#5 -
Larry. What a stud.#4 -
Replacement for the replacement Chrissy.#3 -
Mrs. Roper. What a nice old lady. She was always sticking up for the kids and getting them out of trouble. We all need a Mrs. Roper in our lives.#2 -
Chrissy Snow. What a terrible picture, right? She looks scary.#1 -
Jack Tripper. A true idol.79. Tosh.O (2009 - Present) - To be honest I have absolutely no clue what day or time this show airs, but I often catch the reruns and they are all hilarious. It was not until recently that I began watching the show more consistently. It is more of a summertime show for me as many of my bar tending friends refuse to watch Big Brother or Rock Star Supernova at my house anymore and Tosh.O is usually what we end up watching. I try not to laugh because I am usually bitter about nobody wanting to watch 3 hours of Big Brother: After Dark, but it is nearly impossible to not laugh. Daniel Tosh is absolutely awesome and I would gladly trade any and all of my friends to be his friend.
Calm down friends, I am kind of kidding.
Not for those of you with a weak stomach. Although, I do have one of the weakest stomach's of anyone I know, but I think this is hysterical.
78. Family Ties (1982 - 1989) - I am not sure why this show is a favorite of mine because I hated just about every main character with a passion. The only two that I like are Alex and Mallory. The rest of the family is AWFUL.
Also, the theme song has always scared me and creeped me out. If it was not for the theme song, the cast, and the "very special episodes" that were also always very scary, this show would have been awesome.
PS - Has anyone seen the youngest Keaton sibling in the past few years. Here is just a sample of what he looks like now.He has grown into such a good-looking, clean-cut, well-behaved adult.

Andrew Now
77. Behind the Music (1997 - 2006, 2009) - There is not much that makes me feel better about myself more than watching an episode of Behind the Music. Sure, I am not perfect, and have made many mistakes in my life, but when I watch Behind the Music I always think of how many worse things I could have done in my life. Here are my top twenty favorite Behind the Music episodes. NOT in random order.
20. Pink
19. Mamas and the Papas - They were very messed up
18. Alanis Morissette
17. Creed
16. Aerosmith
15. Bret Michaels
14. Ozzy Osborne
13. Leif Garrett - WOW! I am SOOOOOOOOO glad I am not him.
12. Matchbox Twenty
11. No Doubt
10. Red Hot Chili Peppers
9. Courtney Love
8. Guns N' Roses
7. TLC
6. The Go-Gos
5. Motley Crue
4. Poison
3. Oasis
2. Selena
1. Def Leppard
The show coming in at #77 does take into consideration that there are some episodes of Behind the Music that you literally could not pay me to watch. For example:
* Donna Summer
* Bette Midler (although I do really like "Wind Beneath My Wings)
* Nelly
* Paula Cole - What!!! There is seriously an episode of Behind the Music staring Paula Cole?
Finally, I am still waiting for Behind the Music:
*Third Eye Blind
*The Killers
* Blink 182
* Pearl Jam
and most importantly...
Behind the Music: Divynals
76. Talk Soup (1991 - 2002) / The Soup (2004 - Present) - Talk Soup changed the way we watched television forever. Instead of sitting home and watching daytime television everyday, we now could go about our lives and simply watch Talk Soup and be caught up with all the funny things we missed. Talk Soup paved the way for shows like Tosh.O and The Soup, which currently airs on E!
Obviously my favorite part is Reality Show Clip time. It takes the very best moments of Reality TV from the past week and makes them even better by adding hilarious commentary. Like this...
There have been 5 hosts of Talk Soup / The Soup and all of them are hysterical except Hal Sparks.
Favorite Talk Soup / The Soup Hosts
#5 - Hal Sparks, 1999 - 2000
#4 - Aisha Tyler, 2001 - 2002
#3 - John Henson 1995 - 1999
#2 - Greg Kinnear 1991 - 1995
#1 - Joel McHale 2004 - Present
75. Kids Incorporated (1984 - 1993) - This show made me want to be a child actor more than anything in the world (besides "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids.) I was so jealous of the new cast members every season. I often think about where I would be in my life today if my parents had only taken me to the Kids Incorporated tryouts. Sure, I had zero singing ability when I was seven and no acting experience, but my mother is a dance teacher and I could do a mean shuffle-hot-step-flap-step when I was younger. I still have the occasional dream that Kids Incorporated will make a return and i'll finally get the chance to try out and get one of the coveted positions, but come on, who doesn't have that dream.
Top 5 most famous former Kids Incorporated stars.
#5 - Martika
#4 - Eric Balfour
#3 - Jennifer Love Hewitt
#2 - Mario Lopez
#1 - Stacey Fergie Ferguson
74. Diff'rent Strokes (1978 - 1986) - We all know that the world don't move to the beat of just one drum and what might be right for you, may not be right for some, but Diff'rent Strokes really drilled that into our heads and wouldn't let us forget it. I am pretty sure I have never met a Willis in real life before, but I am positive that if I ever do I will not have the control to NOT say "What Chu Talkin' About, Willis?" within seconds of being introduced to him. As sweet as all the child actors seemed on television the cast of Diff'rent Strokes was the epitome of the cliche that child actors are really messed up and have major problems. I am not sure what was in the water on the set of the show, but give me some of that!

WTF?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
73. Family Matters (1989 - 1997) - My third favorite sitcom about an African American family of all time is Family Matters. Before I had friends I remember looking forward to watching this every Friday night. Now, however, there is not enough money in the world that would force me to sit down for 22 minutes and watch Steve Urkell. He has got to be the most annoying television character of all time. As the seasons went on, I remember they even tried to make Urkell cool, but it obviously was unsuccessful. I do have to admit that I still use the phrase "Did I Do Thatttttt???????" quite often and still get a kick out of it. I really wish that I did not love this show so much when I was a child so I did not have to include it on this list, but I did love it, and despite how much I can't stand it now, it does deserve a spot on the countdown.
Yes, you nerd, you did do that. And you know it!
72. Hoarders (2009 - Present) - Whenever my house is a complete mess and I am not in a cleaning mood, I simply pop in an episode of Hoarders and all my problems are solved. I could literally not clean my house for 5 years and I would still not make it to the semi-finals in the Hoarders casting. As anyone who has ever seen this show knows, the number one rule when watching Hoarders is that you can not have just eaten, eat, or plan on eating after watching the show. I am 100% serious that I think there should be a disclaimer at the start of the show that says DO NOT EAT while watching this.
Despite how nauseated I become while watching it, I am glued to the television when it is on, and can't look away.
I am still waiting for the spin-off, "Hoarders-Car Edition" so I can apply, but until then I will just have my dad clean my car every few months while I am sipping on a delicious cocktail that he has made me. Thanks dad!!!!!!!!!
I have to admit that I do have a bit of Hoarding tendencies, but come on, who knows when I will need my school uniform from 8th grade or my spedo from swim team..... or my hotel room key from Cancun 2000, or my headphones that only work in one ear.
71. Head of the Class (1986 - 1991) - How can you NOT love Rain Pryor...
???I kid. I actually think that Rain Pryor taught me what it felt like to hate someone with a passion. I had two wonderful seasons of Head of the Class, Rain free and they ruled. Then, season three rolls around, and with it comes this crazy, mean, lunatic. I did not want her in my classroom and she really ruined my life.
Even Simone
who I was madly in love with, could not negate the fact that Rain Pryor was now a part of Head of the Class. I am obviously still a little bitter, but all-in-all Head of the Class was a gem and I miss the first two seasons with all my heart.
I almost shed a tear while watching that clip. Maybe this is why I am late to work about 4 times a week and my students are sitting in homeroom before me. I learned that it was OK from Head of the Class.
