I love the final scene of the Newhart finale. It can only really be done once (I love that Breaking Bad & LOST parodied it in bonus features). It's an underrated comedy & a rare '80s sitcom that holds up well.

The only thing I'd add is that it's been disputed over the years whose suggestion it was originally. The show's writers have said the idea came from writer Dan O’Shannon.
