Indeed, "old" could depend on however old the person making the list is! But here are some of my favorite shows from the past that bring back a few good thoughts. (Some of these shows are still on the air, so I guess I'm referring to the "classic" episodes!)

Sesame Street
Mister Rogers
Electric Company
Happy Days
The Muppet Show
Superfriends
Adventures of Superman
Batman (Adam West)
Wonder Woman
The Incredible Hulk
Mork & Mindy
Gilligan's Island
The Partridge Family
The Cosby Show
Family Ties
Misfits of Science
Spider-Man (Live-action 1970s)
Popeye/Bugs Bunny cartoons
Underdog
Wonderful World of Disney

==============================================

And now, my tv-show related blog postings. :smile: Thankfully, many of these shows now have at least a few episodes available on DVD. But not all! Here's a list of some shows that I'd like to see on DVD:

I just don't want to count anything post 80's myself.

I say stuff from the 70's backward due to the fact that I consider 80's + to be current, and not old enough to be old, even though some of them are 20-30 years old now.

That said, I really Like Monty Python. That should count, right? 1969-1973...
