Thought I would post this here when it was on the GD discussion.
Seems more appropriate.

Both were great..they were must see TV on Saturday nights. It was fantastic that after the shows ended we could see them on syndication almost every night in the late 70's early 80's. I'm lucky to have seen all the episodes.

I used to watch TMTMS, and liked it pretty well, but overall TBNS is my favorite of the two. If I could only ever watch one again, it would be my choice. Part of that is because I prefer Suzanne Pleshette to Mary Tyler Moore. I find her funnier and warmer, not to mention sexier.
