Popdose Presents March Madness: '80s Sitcoms banner

If there’s one thing we at Popdose love more than 1980s sitcoms it’s March Madness. Actually that’s not true at all, but we do love ’80s sitcoms. Some of them at any rate. But since America seems to love tournaments in bracket form, we’re running one of our own this year. To make things even more fun and exciting we’re leaving it to you, our loyal readers, to determine which shows win and which get canceled!

Today we finish up the first round of action with Regions 3 (The Workplace) and 4 (Everything Else), and narrow the field of sitcoms to 32. If you need a recap of the rules or the selection process, click here.
