Top 10 Best Teen Sitcoms

The Top Ten

Drake and Josh

Drake & Josh is an American television sitcom created by Dan Schneider for Nickelodeon. The series follows two teenage boys with opposite personalities, Drake Parker (played by Drake Bell) and Josh Nichols (played by Josh Peck), who become stepbrothers. Both actors had previously appeared on The Amanda... read more

This old show is a masterpiece. Dan Schneider also created iCarly, Victorious, Sam & Cat, Zoey 101, and Henry Danger - all of these are hilarious, have good plots, and feature great actors. Dan Schneider manages to give each character a unique personality.
I really can't find the words to express how awesome this show is. Drake is cool, Josh is amazingly funny, and Megan is cute but also evil. Nickelodeon used to be great, but now it has become bad - maybe because this isn't there anymore.
I hope Dan Schneider keeps creating these humorous sitcoms. He's a genius.

This sitcom Drake and Josh is my all-time number one favorite because it features my love crush and all-time favorite singer, Drake Bell. I watch this show almost every day. In fact, I am addicted to Drake and Josh.
Not only that, but Drake Bell has an awesome sense of humor. He is also so handsome, cute, has an adorable laugh, and a sweet smile. I am a huge, all-time, number-one Drake Bell fan. Plus, Drake Bell is my boyfriend!
Every Witch Way

Every Witch Way is an American telenovela-formatted teen sitcom that originally aired on Nickelodeon from January 1, 2014, to July 30, 2015. It is the American version of the Nickelodeon Latin American show Grachi. The series stars Paola Andino as Emma Alonso, a teenage girl who discovers she is a witch... read more

This show is so AWESOME. This needs to be #1, above Drake & Josh, which should be #2. There's no laugh track, which Drake & Josh has.
There's a great storyline. Drake & Josh is just two people fighting with each other. There are nowhere near as many plot holes as Drake & Josh or the other shows. This definitely deserves to be #1 on the list.
If you saw Drake & Josh, then you better see this. Please respect my facts and opinions, even if you hate it (if you do).

This is more than just a teen sitcom. It is also a teen telenovela. The reason it is also a telenovela is because 1) a new episode airs five days a week and ends in cliffhangers, 2) there's romance and relationships, 3) it won't run as long as a soap opera even though it's similar to one - soap operas run almost indefinitely, 4) it's suitable for all ages, while soap operas are suitable for 12 and up, and 5) telenovelas, including this one, are gaining more viewers, while soap operas tend to lose viewers. Best telenovela sitcom ever.
Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide

Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide is an American live-action sitcom that aired on Nickelodeon. The pilot episode debuted on September 7, 2003, and the full series officially premiered on September 12, 2004, as part of the TEENick programming block.... read more

Aaagghh, nostalgia! Ned's Declassified really should at least be in the top 10. It isn't the typical canned laughter/stupid antics combo that a lot of these shows are. It was unique because there was absolutely no fourth wall, the humor was really good, and it was actually meaningful in many ways.

It features a lot of awesome characters and ridiculous comedy between Ned, Moze, Cookie, and friends vs. the teachers and vice principal.
iCarly

iCarly is an American teen sitcom that ran on Nickelodeon from September 8, 2007, until November 23, 2012. The series was created by Dan Schneider and focuses on teenager Carly Shay, who creates her own web show called iCarly with her best friends Sam Puckett and Freddie Benson. The show was a major... read more

The show is really nice. I like the balance of the characters, like how bad Sam is and how good Carly is, and, well, of course, Freddie. I like the flow of the show. It's a brilliant idea to create this kind of show. The funny lines are delivered naturally. Every episode has details and nice stuff in it. Thumbs up for this.

Well, I think iCarly is good, or maybe great, but I only love iCarly from seasons 1-4. Like you said, when you get to seasons 5 and 6, all the characters are older, and they aren't as funny as when they were kids. They just talk about love and blah blah blah. No more funny. Laugh out loud.
Zoey 101

Zoey 101 is an American teen drama television series that aired on Nickelodeon from January 9, 2005, to May 2, 2008. The show follows the life of Zoey Brooks, played by Jamie Lynn Spears, along with her younger brother Dustin, played by Paul Butcher, and their friends. They all attend Pacific Coast Academy... read more

This is by far the greatest show made by Dan Schneider. There's no laugh track, and there's also drama.
That '70s Show

That '70s Show is an American television period sitcom that originally aired on Fox from August 23, 1998, to May 18, 2006. The series focuses on the lives of a group of teenage friends living in the fictional suburban town of Point Place, Wisconsin. The storyline is set between May 17, 1976, and December... read more

I agree. His deadpan delivery worked very well. I am a big fan of That '70s Show and have been for years. It's on Netflix now, and I've watched every episode. A lot of people can relate to the stories and circumstances in this series. That's what the '90s brought to the table: still some original ideas that worked and made an impact.
Having multiple characters who were all of equal importance was great. Kelso was just as important to the cast as Jackie, while Fez was just as necessary as Hyde. Given that Hyde is Eric's best friend, I personally think Hyde is a great addition to the show.
Eric and Donna have been together off and on throughout the whole show. I enjoy seeing their ups and downs on screen, as I know everyone can relate to having relationship troubles. We see them grow, season by season, and toward the end, you know it's going to be a bummer when it finishes.
I find that this show has a ton of replay value. I suggest it and would recommend it to everyone looking for a classic show to bring laughter and a sense of nostalgia into their lives.
I appreciate this show and will always be a fan!

Wizards of Waverly Place

Wizards of Waverly Place is an American fantasy teen sitcom that aired on Disney Channel from October 12, 2007, to January 6, 2012. Created by Todd J. Greenwald, the series stars Selena Gomez, David Henrie, and Jake T. Austin as three siblings who are wizards in training, each competing to become the... read more

Wizards of Waverly Place is better than all the other lame shows. It shows how boys and girls can be friends, and Selena Gomez came from this.

It's okay, but sometimes the show is too focused on the main character. And the laugh track is annoying.

This should be on top, shaking my head. One of the best sitcoms Disney ever made. The story is interesting and topped with a bit of fantasy, which makes it awesome.
Big Time Rush

Big Time Rush is an American television series that aired on Nickelodeon from November 28, 2009, to July 25, 2013. The show was created by Scott Fellows, who is also known for creating Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide and Johnny Test. Fellows additionally served as the head writer for The Fairly... read more

It's good, but sometimes the funny lines are overrated.

Best TV show and music group ever.

Underrated. Being a boy band is part of what makes it special.
Victorious

Victorious is an American sitcom created by Dan Schneider that originally aired on Nickelodeon from March 27, 2010, through February 2, 2013. The series follows aspiring singer Tori Vega, who attends Hollywood Arts High School after unexpectedly taking her sister Trina's place in a talent showcase.... read more

This show is amazing! The characters are a full combo: the conceited one, the scary one, the geeky/unpopular one, the talented one, the funny/stupid one, and of course, the neutral one. I really love Ariana Grande's character. Thumbs up for this.

The best sitcom.
It has good comedy.
It has good acting.
It has good music since all of them are singers.
Above everything else... All three girls are drop-dead gorgeous!
A must-watch!

This show is actually VERY funny, especially the last season. Don't know why it's number 4.
Glee

Glee is an American musical comedy-drama television series that aired on the Fox network in the United States from May 19, 2009, to March 20, 2015. The show centers on the fictional William McKinley High School glee club, New Directions, which competes in show choir competitions.... read more

Glee is the only smart sitcom on this list.

Miley's better times, before that stupid wrecking ball.

One of the best sitcoms! The funniest show!
Malcolm In the Middle

Malcolm in the Middle is an American television sitcom created by Linwood Boomer for the Fox Broadcasting Company. The series premiered on January 9, 2000, and concluded on May 14, 2006, after seven seasons and 151 episodes.... read more

I've watched this show so many times. I'm so upset that Fox took it off Netflix and won't even release it to VUDU, Hulu, Amazon, iTunes, etc. I'd pay to watch this show again.

Malcolm is an annoying little kid, but you root for him anyway. Reese is so stupid you can't help but laugh. Dewey is just... hilarious!

I love this show! I had a crush on Malcolm. It's a shame that Frankie can't remember being on the show.
Best Friends Whenever

The show premiered on September 27, 1996, on ABC to an audience of over 17 million viewers as part of the "T.G.I.F." lineup. It starred Melissa Joan Hart as Sabrina Spellman, a teenager who learns on her... read more

Sabrina, the Teenage Witch was one of the coolest teen sitcoms. It's now on 4Music. Sabrina had a sexy boyfriend, Harvey Kinkle. The breakup was stupid - I mean, remember the first kiss episode and when she could tell mortals on Friday the 13th that she is a witch?
The cartoon Sabrina series never lasted one season, and who cares about The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina? It's not even on Nickelodeon or CITV Channel/Scrambled like the '90s version was.

I know the new Sabrina is supposed to be dark and horror-themed, but there's one problem: Witches (Wicca, Paganism) do not believe in the devil. The devil is from the Bible.
There is a similar god called Pan, the horned god from Paganism, which is older than Christianity. Pan was turned into the devil. This is the reason why Harry Potter has been attacked for years.
Girl Meets World

Girl Meets World is an American coming-of-age television sitcom. The series debuted on Disney Channel on June 27, 2014. It is a sequel to the 1990s show Boy Meets World and follows the life of Cory and Topanga's daughter, Riley Matthews.

My daughter loves this show. I liked the older show, Boy Meets World, as it always got to the root of life, with lessons in every episode that young minds could hold onto and maybe carry with them. Mr. Feeny was an integral part of Corey's upbringing, and he had a strong hand in shaping Corey and Topanga into the great parents they are in Girl Meets World.
In this show, you can see a bit of a young Corey Matthews in his daughter. She has great parents and a top-notch support system. She also has a troubled young friend, much like Shawn Hunter was to Corey - a childhood best friend who often found himself in trouble and dealt with abandonment issues from his father.
I find it fascinating how some things in life never really change, only the time in which they happen. Corey and Topanga have done a great job with their children (and so have the writers at Disney, of course). I look forward to many more years of my daughter growing up with a show like this to help guide her down the right path.
Happy viewing!
Austin & Ally
