@mariojacobs ,

Rather than using Wikipedia for your source, you may wish to use this IMDb search as your source for this poll:

TV Series, with Screen Gems Television (Sorted by Popularity Ascending)

https://www.imdb.com/search/title/?companies=co0033007&title_type=tv_series

According to this search there are 90 television series that qualify. The first 35 in this search would be the 35 most popular Screen Gems Television Series.

The Three Stooges series doesn't currently list Screen Gems as a company. The series should probably not be included in a poll as it is at risk of being removed:

Removed. Pity, it is hands-down the best show. By the way, the Stooges are listed on the wikipedia page of Screen Gems.

@mariojacobs,

I've been a contributor to Wikipedia in the past. Wikipedia does not consider itself nor IMDb as a primary source of information. In other words, Wikipedia can provide useful information so long as the citation support the article.

Regarding The Three Stooges:

Screen Gems did not produce this series, but syndicated it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_Gems#Rise_of_success_(1954%E2%80%931968)

During that year, the studio began syndicating Columbia Pictures's theatrical film library to television, including the series of two-reel short subjects starring The Three Stooges in 1957.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Three_Stooges#Comeback_with_Joe_DeRita_(1958%E2%80%931970)

However, the success of television revivals for such names as Laurel and Hardy, Woody Woodpecker, Popeye, Tom and Jerry and the Our Gang series in the late 1950s led Columbia to cash in again on the Stooges. In September 1958, Columbia's television subsidiary Screen Gems offered a package consisting of 78 Stooge shorts (primarily from the Curly era), which were well received.[23]

The link to this citation no longer exists.
