And who could forget Ted Baxter?
TV generally doesn't hold up quite as well because times change and people have different sensibilities. I was in a movie theater many years ago and 2 older people walked out appalled by the foul language. Interestingly I remember that and can't for the life of me remember the movie.
So like most things ones upbringing will determine what is viewed as funny. A lot of stuff I don't feel holds up as well today. Although I did rewatch some Taxi and I quite enjoyed it. Christopher Lloyd and Danny DeVitio were pretty brilliant.
