Andy Griffith Show vs Good Place is tough. The Good Place is Mike Schur’s best show (and that’s saying something), but Andy Griffith had Don Knotts, a comic genius who isn’t heavily represented in the bracket.

I didn't realize it *was* a Schur show! I want to change my vote, and I haven't even seen The Good Place yet. That guy's creations are always worth watching.

Clearly more people here need to watch Fleabag.

Fleabag is one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. Incredibly sharply written, brilliantly funny, amazing performances all round, and properly emotional. It’s absolutely stellar all the way round, and frankly I wouldn’t be sad to see it win this entire contest.

I voted for Frasier here though.

I've never been able to get into "The Andy Griffith Show" either, though I can objectively recognize it has good stuff in it. The sitcoms I love from that era are the ones that have something a little bit goofy and slapstick about them ("I Love Lucy," "The Dick Van Dyke Show").
