You've probably found some of the free episodes of WKRP on YouTube. Amazon wants 60 bucks for the whole series. That's my first cursory search. There may be a place. Hope someone chimes in.

I am a "boomer" whose Mom used to watch The Golden Girls ( they all seemed old
to me back then ). Now when I watch it , I think , " Gosh , they are really kind of
young ." I guess I am a lot older now than they were then .
sighhhh....

I'm 40, some of those TGIF Friday night ABC shows I would never rewatch if I didn't have kids today.
But I will sit down and watch Full House, Urkel and earlier episodes of Boy Meets World with the kids.
They also seem to enjoy Saved by The Bell and Rosanne.
So I guess these shows "hold up" with me mainly because of where I am in life.... I can watch them with my kiddos.
Someone mentioned Married with Children.. No way that show gets made today, I don't think. It was lucky to get made THEN.. It was the right show at the right time finding a home on the right network. Just had to be the perfect storm for that show to get made.
I'm not overly sure how well it holds up. I watched a few Youtube videos of "Al's Best Insults" and.. Yeah.. I still laugh at some of them.
But.. a character's wife asking "Did you miss me, honey?" and getting a response of "With every bullet so far"... Somehow I don't think that gets past Standards and Practices now.

^ It might still make it today...maybe. None of Al's insults were ever racist or insensitive to the LGBT community, his rants were mostly about his own life and BIG WOMAN!
No Go from the Get Go: Two and a Half Men (as non chick flick as it gets)
Still like: Big Bang Theory (except it jumped the shark and was weak the final couple of seasons Everybody Loves Raymond
Meh: King of Queens - meh (Fat guy with hot woman - nope. I love Leah Remini though, for her work against Scientology and Kevin James is hysterically funny especially in Hitch.)
Never Watched (past my time):
Full House
The Middle
all those other similar 90's shows
The Middle was really good. You should watch it. I didn't really get it the first few times I saw it but we watched it on Netflix or some cable channel and now I love it.
