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!

Well this is it, boys and girls. No more easy matchups, no more shows you didn’t even know existed in the first place. From here on out, it’s nothing but quality as far as the eye can see! We have just 16 sitcoms left for you to choose from, so consider your vote carefully.
