| 11:30 AM | Hazel Stage and screen star Shirley Booth cleaned up with two Emmys for the title role of a busybody maid, based on the `Saturday Evening Post' cartoons by Ted Key. Hazel may have officially been the Baxters' housekeeper, but she ran that house much more adeptly than the often-flummoxed George ran his successful law career. When `Hazel' moved over to CBS, Booth's character also relocated, going to live with the family of George's brother. |

| 12:00 PM | That Girl A perky aspiring actress tries to start a career in New York, getting encouragement from her boyfriend, Don, and her family. For many young women, Ann Marie was an independent role model for the times (the late '60s) for having left the nest in pursuit of a career. She also inspired trends in fashion with her flipped-up hairdo and cute, mod clothes. Marlo Thomas received Emmy nominations in four of its five seasons. The show was created by Bill Persky and Sam Denoff (`The Dick Van Dyke Show'). |

| 1:00 PM | I Dream of Jeannie Playful, popular sitcom about astronaut Tony Nelson and the sexy genie he releases from a bottle. In the blink of an eye, she claims him as her `master.' At first they lived together platonically (while Jeannie of course complicated his life), but the pair got married toward the end of the series' run. The network insisted that Barbara Eden's navel never be shown, despite an already fairly revealing harem costume. The show was created and executive produced by Sidney Sheldon. |

| 2:00 PM | Bewitched An enchanting sitcom about beautiful, nose-twitching witch Samantha Stevens, who moves to the suburbs to be with her strait-laced mortal husband, Darrin.

The premise was retooled for the 1977-78 spin-off `Tabitha,' which centered on the Stevens' daughter and starred Lisa Hartman and Robert Urich. |

| 3:00 PM | The Facts of Life A long-running `Diff'rent Strokes' spin-off set at a girls boarding school, with the Drummond's former housekeeper, Mrs. Garrett, now a housemother. The venues for her charges' escapades moved off-campus in later years when Mrs. Garrett opened a series of eateries in town, but her core group of young women remained largely unchanged. |

| 5:00 PM | 227 A sitcom about a busybody in a Washington, D.C., tenement, her family and assorted neighbors. The show was based on the play `227,' which featured series star Marla Gibbs. |
| 5:30 PM | Gimme a Break! A feisty housekeeper named Nell helps a widowed police chief raise his three daughters in a sassy sitcom that mocked stereotypes by showing a loving relationship between a black woman and a white family. Over time the household residents changed and the location shifted from California to New York, but Nell was constant, always there to dispense wisecracks and wisdom. |
| 6:00 PM | Benson Butler Benson carries his mordant wit over to a new job in this `Soap' spin-off, working for a widowed governor with a precocious daughter. The sitcom ran for seven seasons. Robert Guillaume was nominated for an Emmy in five of them and won for the 1984-85 season. He also won a Supporting Emmy in the role in `Soap' the season before `Benson' debuted. In the 1980-81 season, Jerry Seinfeld was featured in some episodes as Frankie. |
| 6:30 PM | Barney Miller New York's finest make for one of sitcom's finest in this Emmy-winning ensemble show. The series was set in the 12th Precinct in Greenwich Village, where a vibe of sometimes edgy, sometimes joyous but always entertaining claustrophobia ruled. Hal Linden's title character, like Andy Griffith's Andy Taylor and Judd Hirsch's Alex Rieger, played the classic straight man amid a host of eccentrics. |
| 7:00 PM | Archie Bunker's Place `All in the Family' evolved into this series in 1979, with Archie now a widower and the proprietor of his own neighborhood bar. |
| 7:30 PM | Alice The durable sitcom about a single mom who slings hash at Mel's Diner is based on the 1974 movie `Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore' and ran for nine seasons. The spinoff series `Flo,' with Polly Holliday, ran from 1980-81. |
| 8:00 PM | It's a Living The personal and professional lives of a group of spirited waitresses and their no-nonsense boss working in a swanky Los Angeles restaurant. In its second season, the title was changed to `Making a Living.' ABC canceled the show in 1982, but three years later, it reappeared in syndication, once again titled `It's a Living,' and lived for four more years. |
| 8:30 PM | Three's Company A man shares an apartment with two women and pretends to be gay so the landlord won't kick him out in this popular bedroom farce. |
| 9:00 PM | Family Ties Former 1960s flower children raise their kids during the conservative Reagan era in one of the best written and acted family sitcoms of the 1980s, a show that occasionally tackled serious issues such as racism and a parent's heart attack. Michael J. Fox won three consecutive Emmys for his portrayal of Alex, the suit-and-tie Republican student who adores William F. Buckley Jr. and devours the Wall Street Journal. Fox later married costar Tracy Pollan, who appeared as his college girlfriend. |
| 9:30 PM | Growing Pains Easy-to-take sitcom about a mild-mannered psychiatrist keeping an eye on his precocious kids from his home office while his wife is off at work as a reporter. Belying its innocent appearance, `Pains' did occasionally address teen social issues, but mostly it stuck to the Seaver kids' growing pains (and the youngest, Chrissy, literally shot up: growing from toddler to 6-year-old in two seasons). Leonardo DiCaprio (then 16) joined the cast in the final season as a homeless teenager. |
| 10:00 PM | Designing Women Savvy single women run Sugarbakers, an Atlanta decorating business, in this saucy sitcom with feminist sensibilities, which also endured its share of tabloid notoriety (thanks in some measure to Delta Burke's fluctuating weight and her departure from the series in 1991). Created by Harry Thomason and Linda Bloodworth-Thomason, the series garnered 11 Emmy nominations. |
| 10:30 PM | Murphy Brown Diane English's hit sitcom about the brassy star reporter for a TV newsmagazine and her coworkers. Based in Washington, D.C., Murphy is mouthy, driven, assured and frequently politically incorrect. She also has a real problem holding on to secretaries (going through 93 of them during the Emmy-winning show's 10-season run). In 1992, Murph ran into criticism from Dan Quayle (and scored loads of free publicity) when the vice president slammed the working single mom's `alternative lifestyle.' |
| 11:00 PM | Johnny Carson Reruns of the popular late-night talk show that ran from 1962-92 and featured guests, stand-up comedians and musical performances. |
