It can't be a good list without some of the british sitcoms, as Fawlty towers or 'Only fools and horses', one of the best shows ever.

I love the Mary Tyler Moore show. It came on the scene in 1970. That was the year my son Tommy was born. He was my only son after giving birth to 4 girls. I love to hear the music from the show, it brings me warm memories. I lost my only amazing son on 9/11 flight 11.
