About This Quiz

The 1980s didn't just bring us big hair, big shoulder pads and big music. The decade also brought us some envelope-pushing sitcoms that changed the way we view the world. 

You might remember the beautiful "Golden Girls" who graced our television screens for 24 minutes every week. They took on topics like LGBT issues, death, sexual harassment and menopause before it was cool to do so. And they did it in such a lovable way that we all just had to laugh and accept that these topics were things people actually spoke about. Or perhaps you remember the conservative Alex P. Keaton, who loved to correct his parents and ... study? 

With so many memorable characters in the sitcoms of the '80s, there has to be one that you have found a connection with, one that you would want to hang out with the most. There is one setting that you imagine yourself in as you watch these fascinating characters go through their day-to-day situational issues, with a sense of humor to go along with it (and perhaps a laugh track). 

If you aren't sure where you belong in this world, answer these questions, and we'll tell you which 1980s sitcom you belong in.
