I can't even look at daily comic strips. And I hate sitcoms because they don't seem like real people to me: they're props that often say horrible things to each other, which I don't find funny. I have to feel like they're real people.
Emotionally, shows like 'Cheers' and 'Taxi' were classic sitcoms when I was growing up.

Writing is the greatest thing about really good sitcoms.
