Carson was a master. Anyone who thinks today that he was just 'entertaining the old folks' has never really listened.

I prop "Hogan's Heroes" for many reasons (including Carol Kaye's picked bass for the opening theme) not the least of which was that quite a few of the actors who were, as the critics say, playing 'stereotypes' were in fact Jewish themselves, John Banner as Schultz being a notable example.
It could not be done today.

The Carol Burnett stuff... what to say. They managed 'raunchy' within the FCC limits better than just about anyone. Didn't mean that some of the best stuff is the cutting-room things we love.
'Siamese Elephants' anyone...

'Buffy the Vampire Slayer'
might sound like silly bubble-gum but actually very deep; great character development, plot twists, complex story arcs. also had the occasional 'experiment' ('Hush', mostly dialogue-free; music epi 'Once More with Feeling'; dreamy/nightmare 'Restless' with a terrif 'Apocalypse Now' parody...)

'Kolchak the Night Stalker'
no-nonsense reporter repeatedly encounters paranormal entities. Unique combination of old-school and new-age sensibilities. One of tv's best matches of actor (Darren McGavin) and character.

'Lost'
hang on and watch closely; even hardcore fans have trouble keeping up with all the details and references. but that's where the fun is. Terry O'Quinn's 'Locke' is a character for the ages.

'Veronica Mars' (first two seasons)
epic teen story arc. serious stuff about murder and family and secrets; hugely underappreciated.
