The Fox network celebrated its 25th anniversary Sunday night in a 2 hour retrospective. \u00a0Here’s a look back at some of the comedies they have broadcast over the years, based on Wikipedia’s<\/a> list..<\/p>\n

Flying Blind<\/em>: The comedy that introduced T\u00e9a Leoni\u00a0to primetime audiences only lasted one season. \u00a0I don’t remember much about the show, beyond knowing that I enjoyed it and Leoni.<\/p>\n

Get A Life<\/em>: Chris Elliot starred as a 30 year old paperboy. \u00a0It was something of an accomplishment that the show managed to last 2 seasons. \u00a0The most enduring memory of the show might just be its theme song, REM’s Stand<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Herman’s Head<\/em>: About a research assistant and the 4 representations of his psyche. \u00a0It is most notable today for featuring two stars from another Fox hit, the Simpsons.<\/p>\n

In Living Color<\/em>: The sketch comedy show that gave us Damon Wayans, David Alan Grier, and Jim Carrey was a cultural touch stone in the early 90s. \u00a0Who doesn’t love a little Fire Marshall Bill or Homey the Clown?<\/p>\n

Married… With Children<\/em>: The first prime time series to air on the network, and their first hit. \u00a0An entire generation grew up lusting after Christina Applegate.<\/p>\n

Martin<\/em>: A great comedy before Martin Lawrence went crazy and alienated the cast and crew.<\/p>\n

Ned & Stacey<\/em>: Thomas Haden Church and Debra Messing starred as the title couple of convenience for two seasons.<\/p>\n

That ’70s Show<\/em>: The show that introduced Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis, Laura Prepon, and Wilmer Valderrama to an unsuspecting public. \u00a0Hello, Wisconsin! indeed.<\/p>\n

The Tick<\/em>: A surreal live action version of the comic book lasted 9 whole episodes.<\/p>\n

Undeclared<\/em>: The second Judd Apatow show to be cancelled after only one season, following Freaks & Geeks<\/em>. \u00a0Probably best remembered today for featuring a young Seth Rogen.<\/p>\n
