This is harder for the older guys. More to pick from.
In our youth, prime time TV was a family affair (only one TV in the house). Now we have four, though two are unused since the boys moved away.
Early 5: Flintstones, Yogi Bear, Twilight Zone, and Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color. The Untouchables.
Later 5: Columbo, Streets of San Francisco, Who loves ya baby (Kojak), Book'em Dano (Hawaii 5-0), Star Trek.
Other never missed watching:
Secret Agent Man, Lou Grant, Love Boat, McMillan and Wife, 6 Million Dollar Man, and the original Law and Order.
Do you guys remember:
"Man....woman....birth....death....infinity"?

Quote from Bob Preusse's post:

"Brad Proudfoot? ----are u related to Chester Proudfoot of "Gunsmoke" fame? he was Marshall Dillon's sidekick on the longest running TV series in history, 1950s thru the 1960s, maybe even into the 1970s.
as a member of the Woodstock generation just back from overseas & attending Ohio St U, I had better things to do than watch TV, but I do recall Gunsmoke."

Sorry Bob, I'm not related. ;)
This is a great thread. I completely forgot about the A-Team, Laverne and Shirley, and Family Ties. How could I forget Alex P. Keaton?

No one has yet mentioned American Idol. In spite of their massive audience, I guess no one wants to admit getting a kick out of it.
Coach Mancini--I loved the Banana Splits. Who can forget Danger Island?

I was telling my brother about this thread and he told me to go to www.hulu.com
I'm probably not telling you guys anything new but I'm don't venture far away from the sports websites -- so, the site is pretty sweet, you can watch a ton of different television shows. I just began re-watching one of my top 10 shows -- the pretender.

"Do you guys remember: "Man....woman....birth....death....infinity"?
Steve L, i'll answer that one, its Ben Casey MD, the reason i know is the lead Dr Casey was an Ohio St U grad who swam on Ohio St Swim Team, i forget his name but he was a buckeye.
Meet the Press an interesting selection--- but Tim Russert was too nice a guy for me even though he was a John Carroll grad who also grad from Cleveland State's John Marshall Law School. I prefer a tougher interviewer, Mike Wallace or Lou Dobbs.
have never watched American Idol, i couldnt even tell u what channel its on or when its on, i just hear people blabbing constantly about someone named Paula Abdul --- one thing about this thread, i havent watched many of these shows, thus i'm feeling better about my life, ha, ha, ha.

Anyways, my list is more of recent shows.
1. Smallville (big fan of Superman)
2. Dexter
3. Rescue Me
4. Fringe
5. Lost
6. Nip/Tuck
7. Sons of Anarchy
8. South Park
9. Family Guy
10. Prison Break (would be higher, but the last few seasons didn't do it for me)
