    Saturday night I was bouncing around youtube and came across that show Grizzly Adams. Watched a bit of it. Big mistake. Now I can't get that cheesy theme song out of my head.

    The BBC mystery programs run circles around anything on US TV. The CBC show, "The Border" was very good as was the one about the Vancouver Medical Examiner.

    Bob Newhart as the shrink was close the shrinks I have known. Hill Street Blues was close to the truth in a funny way.

    I loved Captain Kangaroo!

    My daughter has some of the series collections of I Love Lucy.

    I still love the old cartoons. Tom and Jerry is my favorite, love the old Mickey Mouse ones and of course, POPEYE! Tweety used to be my favorite character though, because he was yellow. Just call me shallow. :laugh:

    By "old" do we mean "no longer on TV?" Or does it have to be from the supposed "golden age" when life was glossed over, when alcoholics were happy, and people never said a naughty word like "pregnant" or "dang?" And when toilets couldn't be shown on TV because they suggested that, at some place and time, someone might have had to use the toilet?

    If we mean the former, one of my all-time faves is "Arrested Development."

    If we mean the latter, well, I don't care for many of them, but because my parents preferred I not know what "pregnant" was or that I was normal for using the can, I was occasionally entertained by "I Love Lucy," "Dick Van Dyke," and a few others.

    One of my favorites from a time gone by, "The Bob Newhart Show" was fantastic and was more realistic in that it didn't hold up some sort of non-existent ideals and was extremely funny.
