So please enjoy some of the greatest shows, most syndicated shows and occasionally most forgettable shows, to win television's highest honor.

Since , there have been 34 different winners of the statue, and looking back at them illustrates how TV has evolved, from variety programs to multicam sitcoms to the single-cam documentary style that dominated recently.

So please enjoy some of the greatest shows, most syndicated shows and occasionally most forgettable shows to win television's highest honor. It's unclear how this variety show stood out, but awards voters just loved honoring Carney, and it happened again in when he won the Best Actor Oscar for "Harry and Tonto.

William Windom played the Thurber stand-in, who worked for the fictional Manhattanite magazine, which was similar to Thurber's New Yorker. The show blended animation with conventional sitcom settings, adapting and riffing on Thurber's short stories.

And while it lasted only a year, Windom would go on to play Thurber on stage for years. Not to be confused with the MTM s sitcom in which Newhart played a psychiatrist, this was a variety show starring Newhart in an era when variety shows dominated the Comedy Emmys.

Two years earlier, Newhart had been a copywriter who had a surprise monster hit with his first comedy album, "The Button-Mind Of Bob Newhart.

Two years into his career, Newhart had already won two Grammys and an Emmy purely on the strength of his wit and ability to hold one-sided phone conversations.

Creator David E. Kelley had won a lot for "Picket Fences" earlier, and Emmy voters have loved his style, even all the way through "Big Little Lies.

Still, it's Calista Flockhart's finest work, except when she pretends that Harrison Ford's earring looks good.

It ran for 19 more years and never took the big prize again, though it did win for Writing Achievement in Comedy in , edging out "Make Room For Daddy" and something called "Hennesey," which was about a Navy doctor.

It was a variety show built around Skelton and his collection of characters, but it also notably employed Johnny Carson and Sherwood Schwartz creator of "Gilligan's Island" and hosted the Rolling Stones' American TV debut.

Of course, the fake band ended up selling over 75 million records despite only Peter Tork being able to play an instrument.

The show only lasted two seasons but featured avant-garde editing and surreal storytelling, and it arguably invented the music video with the musical interludes in each episode.

After the show ended, The Monkees released the cult classic "Head," which was developed with the aid of a great deal of marijuana, with the screenplay written by a prefame, high-on-LSD Jack Nicholson.

A cop show that never actually left the police station, "Barney Miller" dealt with the foibles of a police department in Greenwich Village.

The sitcom wasn't as much about crime solving as it was about dealing with paperwork and frustration. Overall, it had a stage play feel, almost like a Beckett play with its fundamental, inherent inaction.

Caesar's Hour was the follow-up to Sid Caesar's wildly successful "Your Show of Shows," a minute variety show with musical guests, production numbers, monologues and Caesar's sketches and parodies.

Of course, the sketches would also run as long as 15 minutes, which might not age well — that's almost Instagram stories! He also inadvertently named another legendary comedy ensemble: If a joke bombed, Caesar would blame the young writers, aka "the kids in the hall.

The producers decided to have her die off-screen, a move that "Kevin Can Wait" recently imitated. Jack Benny's multiple Emmy winner was perhaps the seminal example of radio shows transitioning to television.

Benny was a radio star as early as and began doing his TV version for CBS in with the same actors, style and even scripts.

It ran for 15 years, meaning Benny had a staggering 32 straight years of the show, during all of which he maintained his character — cheap, playing the violin terribly, constantly remaining 39 years old and delivering some of the best comedic pauses in TV history.

It was a ratings hit, launched Ray Romano into an unexpected dramatic acting career and defined a whole era of family-oriented, slightly boring sitcoms on CBS.

Low-rated but critically acclaimed, "Taxi" was James L. There may never be an ensemble like this again, mainly because there's no reason for a bunch of Lyft drivers to hang out together.

Dan Quayle's least favorite entry on this list is "Murphy Brown," which like "The Mary Tyler Moore Show," was a newsroom sitcom featuring a strong, smart female protagonist — though Mary's show didn't have a new secretary working every week.

Smart and political, the show drew weird controversy when Vice President Quayle started to make Murphy's fictional single motherhood a campaign issue.

The controversy feels anachronistic by now, which may be why Diane English and Candice Bergen rebooted the show last year. Don't have an account? Sign up today.
