I should probably stop watching Newhart at night and start watching the several flicks in contention for the top 25.

It's a TV sitcom in the 80s, not to be confused with The Bob Newhart Show from the 70s, both starring the actor of the same name. :P

I don't know about a definitive list. I remember hearing about it as a kid and never really thought much of it until I started buying sitcoms from my childhood. I actually bought The Bob Newhart Show thinking it was Newhart and didn't even know he had two sitcoms. Both are solid, though I haven't seen much. But Newhart's ending was something I knew about like 25 years ago and have since forgot, so I'm looking forward to finishing the show to see what it is. :P

Nick at Nite was sitcom heaven. They had a lot of the old stuff like that.

The Family Channel had a lot of great shit (Three Stooges, Addams Family)

I've got a handful of movies to consider for the top 25. The Omen can be as high as #24. I don't think it can go higher. But it also may miss the list just barely

Ginger Snaps
An American Werewolf in London
Dawn of the Dead
Return of the Living Dead

These are the ones I'd actually like/need to rewatch as they are the least "fresh" in my mind. The rest of the list was viewed during this year's challenge.
