Was this the best, worst show of all time?

I watched this show as a little kid all of the time. For some reason I thought of this recently and watched a couple of episodes on you tube. I realize that watching it now it's extremely dated, but even for it's own time this had to be considered horrible. The acting, the stories, the special effects, just god awful. That being said, I loved it as a kid and even watching it recently it was so god awful that it was extremely entertaining. So, best worst show of all time?

No question, it's the worst show of all time. No show can compare to how bad this show was. From the monotone fake robot vocals, to the fact that the father and son looked like they needed liposuction on their chins, this show brought suck to a new level.

I've long said this is the worst show I've ever seen. I remember when it was on and recognized how bad it was then. I'm watching an episode right now and it confirms what I've always thought. How any studio agreed to greenlight a pilot shows that morons can reach positions of influence.

Kidding me? Look at television today! Everything's "reality" so I'll take this kinda crap any day.

Worst show ever to be filmed was the Rosie O'Donnell show. The best is all up for grabs.

According to Howard Borden from bathe Bob Newhart Show, the worst thing ever on television was episode 2 of My Mother The Car.

I used to love it back in the 80s but looking at it now it seems pretty dated even for the 80s.

It was such a throwback to the 50s, a middle class family, living in an unnamed suburb in a two story house, the mother sat around baking cookies and the dad put on a suit and tie and went off to work.

But I guess it worked for the 80s.

The word "stank" comes to mind.
But you couldn't stop watching it.

I used to watch it back in the day if nothing else was on, but I really didn't like it at all. But choices were limited back in the 80's before cable. I wouldn't say the worse show of all time, but I would def say it sucked.
