I'll go with the melancholy of 3-5. (Had never even noticed this before.)

I too will go with what I'd call the poignancy of 3-5. Those are also the best seasons of the show... they stop pretending Rhoda is a frump just before Season 3, at which point Georgette is introduced, followed by Betty White's "Sue Ann Nivens" in Season 4.
Worth remembering that the opening theme in Season 1 has different lyrics - not as good ones imo. The Joey Heathertonish ending is hard to vote against, but the subsequent theme better matches the overall feeling of the show.

Season 1 is so good though

Sometimes after we finish a S1 episode I dance around the room in my underwear for my boyfriend w/ lots of spins and kicks and hands and head snaps

Is this thread a stealth ad for the Serta Perfect Sleeper?

before I started this thread I thought there was just Season 1-style and Season 2-7-style but I had a lot of fun listening to them all and I hope that you did too.

Great! She's even got a Sue Ann Nivens bed.

i voted season 1. that's the one that really makes me think i'm gonna make it after all.

I was an emotional vote for me, season 3-5. Totally brings back memories of childhood, early ones. I was in bed before the show came on. If I heard the end credits I was up late in my room or sick.

That reminds me of recently thinking about how there was ultimately something really comforting about hearing the opening credits of your parents' favorite tv shows whilst you where falling asleep. For me the number one example might have been "Hawaii Five-O"

That video was a treat.

Been watching Rhoda. I feel MTM is a better show with better music because I prefer the MTM storyline. I think I am biased that way. Trying to be unbiased, Rhoda does make me laugh, I keep watching just wish the music had been better. I like how the two shows come together in certain episodes.
