For over two decades, Thursday nights on NBC was the place for "Must See TV." Some of the most popular sitcoms in history made their home from the 8-10pm time period. "The Cosby Show" and "Cheers" got the ball rolling in the '80s. "Frasier" and "Friends" led a still thriving NBC into the 21st century. Those four shows, along with "Seinfeld" and many others, garnered mass audiences for a reason. The were broad. People of all demographics could relate to the stories that were being told week after week. I was barely a teenager when I first started watching reruns of "Frasier" and "Friends" and I never had a hard time understanding most of what was happening. Sure, there was some minor adult humor that may have went over my head but those jokes didn't exclude someone of my demo from enjoying the show.
