I like just about any of the old TV programs. My top ten favorites are:

The Beverly Hillbillies

The Three Stooges

The Lone Ranger

The Porter Wagoner Show (airs on RFD-TV on satellite)

The Wilburn Brothers Show (see above)

Dukes of Hazzard (just bought seasons 1 and 4 on DVD)

Lost In Space

Star Trek (the original)

The Incredible Hulk

Cardinals baseball

I like many of the old b&w shows too. I also agree both TV Land and Nick @ Nite are going downhill. What I don't think many people realize is that TV Land shows butchered versions of most of the shows. For instance, The Beverly Hillbillies in their original run, had 25 minutes of show after commercials. After Viacom (which is TV Land's parent company, btw) gets through butchering out parts of the show, it's down to 22 minutes, making more time for commercials. The same thing was done with Andy Griffith Show; the little 1 or 2 minute portion at the end of the show was completely taken out plus being edited otherwise. Now TV Land is showing the original episodes in full, but they have them "time compressed" meaning that the film is sped up ever so slightly. You'll notice that at the end of every episode, it will be 57 minutes after the hour instead of 1:00 (or whatever time) and you're going through 3 minutes of commercials plus the commercials you've already watched. You're better off, when possible, to buy the shows on DVD and watch them!

Amen! DVDs are the ONLY way to enjoy good tv.

Gilligans Island

The Honeymooners, I love Lucy, The Brady Bunch, Star Trek, Welcome Back Kotter, The Smurfs, Superfriends, Knight Rider, Sesame Street, A-Team, Batman, and SpiderMan with Nick Hammond(the live action version). And many other favorites of my youth.

Nowadays I watch Survivor, Trading Spouses, Wife Swap, 'er', 24(my pastor turned me on to this), The Simpsons, War at Home, Family Guy, Prison Break, and I miss Book of Daniel.

A well written indictment of organized religion if ever I saw one. I am saddened it is gone. But I hope that the complete show hits DVD soon.

It's funny, though, lol! When I brought home Season 4 of The Dukes, the kids and I are sitting there watching it (they're as big on it as I am!) and as a segment would close out, I was on edge (as I was as a kid) and was expecting the commercial to come on, lol! I watched The Dukes as a kid and now watch them in re-runs on CMT w/ the kids and it was almost like culture shock to watch it w/o commercials, lol!

I can't believe no one mentioned this one....when I was little it was a treat to sit with grandpa and watch Hee-Haw....I used to laugh at the donkey....plus we always got a bowl of ice cream when it was Hee-Haw time...

Love and Blessings,

How did I managet to forget Buck and Roy, lol? I remember watching Hee-Haw as a little kid on up to the time it went off the air in 1992. As a matter of fact, the last year of Hee-Haw was all old episodes from the 60's, 70's, and 80's. I remember my parents telling me to turn on Hee-Haw one night and it's like "Hee-Haw? That show went downhill went Buck Owens left, etc." but just for the fun of it, I did. There was a very young George Jones from 1969 singing "She Thinks I Still Care." I figured that probably George was a special guest that night and that he and Roy Clark were just reminiscing about his first appearance or whatever, but instead, here was an original Hee-Haw episode from 1969! I taped most of the future episodes after that one but when I started going back to church close to 5 years ago, I got on a legalistic bend and threw them all away! I wish now I would've kept them!!!
