12 Best 90s Sitcoms
By Vlad Zakh · May 4, 2026
Seinfeld and Friends defined 90s sitcoms, but Frasier and The Nanny showed the format could support both wit and broad charm. Boy Meets World follows one boy from childhood through college, NewsRadio is an ensemble workplace comedy in a New York radio station, and Full House has a widowed father raising three daughters with help. Mad About You, 3rd Rock from the Sun, Living Single, Home Improvement and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air round out the list.

11 Six friends in New York City, in what remains one of the most rewatched sitcoms ever made.
