Default Top 10 unintentionally funny sitcom intros...
This is a great list...and if you notice, these are almost all from the 1980s. Special shout out to the greats 'Charles in Charge' and 'Alf' though 'Small Wonder' should have been on the list. Great intros and pretty funny commentary: http://bricksexplode.blogspot.com/20...tv-intros.html

Looking back on it, how was ALF ever a popular TV show? Puppet/alien living with suburban family?

I don't get it.

The credibility all fell apart for me during the episode where ALF was stuck upstairs because the Tanners (I can't believe I remembered that name) had company downstairs. ALF had to pee really bad so he snuck downstairs to use the bathroom. You're telling me they've got a two-story house with no bathroom upstairs?

If your plot-lines revolve around gross failures of architectural design, and extraterrestrial bladder control, it's probably time to close the show.

The Tanners were also the name of the family on Full House.

Oh, in that case I probably had the wrong sitcom.

I don't know why, but I love ALF. Something about a popular TV show with a puppet/alien that is written by a heroin addict.

So which was worse, ALF or Harry and the Hendersons?

NO! I'm never going to get the theme song of "Charles in Charge" out of my head now.

The "Charles in Charge" theme sounds like some creepy bondage song.

You want Charles in charge of you, eh? I'm sure that sentiment is shared by many women.
