I've never heard of it. What was it about?
Out of Control was a crazy variety show from the mid 80's Nickelodeon. The host was Dave Coulier and his show had a bunch of crazy guest stars, regular funny skits, and crazy animation. And he had a crazy cast of stage hands and reporters. My favorite character was the wildly dressed and hyper lady called Diz.

And here's one of my favorite OOC episodes.

Indeed, it's not an easy question to answer. It's great that many of us have long lists of shows. It shows how unique we are. But here are some of mine:

Sesame Street (preferably pre-Elmo's World)
Mister Rogers
Electric Company
Happy Days
Muppet Show
M*A*S*H
Popeye/Bugs Bunny cartoons
Adventures of Superman
Batman (Adam West version)
Wonder Woman
Superfriends
Dick Van Dyke show
Davey & Goliath
Incredible Hulk
Mork & Mindy
Spider-Man (live action version)
And many more which I'm sure I forgot to mention.

The Simpsons - fan since day one, and my all-time favorite show by the end of the first season...

Family Guy - another favorite, endlessly quotable and hilarious...

South Park - see above...

Saturday Night Live (1975-1980) - the first five years of this groundbreaking comedy series, with Dan Aykroyd, John Belushi, Chevy Chase, Jane Curtin, Garrett Morris, Bill Murray, Laraine Newman and Gilda Radner. I was first exposed to it via the 30-minute syndicated "Best of SNL" series; I never thought I would see the full, complete, uncut seasons (including the musical guests) on DVD!:excited: So far they're up to the fourth season...

Monty Python's Flying Circus - can't get enough of this show; even in the Cleese-less final season, there's a lot to like...

Fawlty Towers - THE perfect sitcom IMO, starring John Cleese...

SpongeBob Squarepants - SpongeBob is fantastic, but to me, Squidward is the true star...

Batman - the classic 1966-68 live-action series, starring the one and only Adam West...

Married...with Children - Whoooooooaaaaaaa Bundy!

Mr. Bean - love Rowan Atkinson...

The Muppet Show - a variety show featuring...muffins...moppets...magpies...something like that...:confused::wink:
