Poll question: Most favorite show produced by Norman Lear?
To quote him, "I'm not trying to say anything. I am entertaining the viewers. Is it funny? That was the question. (And) why wouldn't I have ideas and thoughts and why wouldn't my work reflect those ideas?"


My vote goes for "The Jeffersons", though "All in the Family" was crucial for its beginnings.

6. Well, while they were probably corn-fed, it wasn't organic corn...
So it's no shock you might have forgotten.

How's that for a... corny joke? :spray:

7. I was torn between those two, as well.
"All in the Family" may have been the more important show, but "The Jeffersons" was often funnier. I voted for "The Jeffersons," since it looks like "All in the Family" is running away with your poll, probably with good reason...:D
