Monty Python? The Bob Newhart Show? The Prisoner? The Civil War (I think it counts)? Hill Street Blues? Picket Fences? The Practice? The Simpsons (has to have a place in the top 10)?
Too many choices.

D'oh! Can't believe I forgot Homicide. I was crushed when they cancelled it.
What was that one kid's name in that show. Wasn't it Puffy?The only glaring omission I see in your list is "Life Goes On."
Another classic. Aaron Sorkin's best work, IMO. Not too overreaching or preachy like "The West Wing" and "Studio 60."

His given name was Chip, I believe.
He went by Corky.
Kellie Martin is still hot, BTW.

"In my day you had musicians who experimented with drugs. Now it's druggies experimenting with music" - Alfred G Clark (circa 1972)
Mission Impossible and Northern Exposure have been mentioned, and my list of top ten shows grows to 18.
then there's the short-lived Adventures of Briscoe County Jr., which still earns a spot....
and Get Smart....
Oh, someone mentioned SCTV....
Okay. This is impossible.
