10. “Two and a Half Men” (2003 - present)
At the time of its premiere in September 2003, many people in the industry felt that the four-camera, studio audience sitcom was on its last legs. Single camera comedies like “Malcolm In The Middle” and “Arrested Development” were becoming the norm and favorites among critics and reality shows were taking over the network schedules. Along came the perfect one-two comedy punch of Charlie Sheen and Jon Cryer to prove everyone wrong. The show stood as an excellent pairing to an already successful “Everybody Loves Raymond.” Ratings for the show were huge and the show still ranks today as the top comedy on television. While primetime shows many times are ruled by female viewers, the show did something other shows could not, it brought in male viewers that identified with the often times crass and chauvinistic nature of the show. — Laura Saltman
