    Let's see...Gilligan's Island, Night Gallery, Outer Limits, Thunderbirds, Twilight Zone, Monty Python, Andy Griffith Show, Carol Burnett Show. Most of them I have on DVD, the rest I catch on either Amazon/Netflix/Hulu or actual TV. Not appointment TV but fun to catch none the less.

    Couldn't get enough of the corny humour in Green Acres.

    Fresh Air! Times Square!


    (enjoy your Stankwell Falls Fizz)


    ps - i think that in current day, Schitt's Creek catches the Green Acres vibe the best.
     
  12. Hart to Hart, To Catch A Thief, Columbo, Twilight Zone, Alfred Hitchcock Presents.... There's more. Can't remember at the moment.

    I also loved (I think you meant) "It Takes a Thief"* and "Columbo". I loved "Twilight Zone" too, but actually liked "Night Gallery" even better.

    * "To Catch a Thief" was the famous 1955 movie staring Cary Grant and Grace Kelly.

    Tough call. I liked Sliders, Babylon 5, and Star Trek The Next Generation. I think B5 wins though.

    Oh, yeah. B5 ROCKS! I've got the entire series on DVD, plus all three of the movies. The wife and I just finished rewatching them over the last couple of months. (With COVID and the forest fires, there wasn't much to do outside!)

    There are more than 3 B5 movies.
    In The Beginning, The Gathering, Thirdspace, The River of Souls, A Call to Arms, & Legend of the Rangers. I also have Babylon 5 The Lost Tales.

    I remember that show. My parents got cable TV when I was in the 7th grade (early 80s). Christine "Moose" McGlade got water thrown on her every show, as well as green slime. I wonder how she got that nickname. I thought it was really funny the time she said what eau de toilette meant in English. The flushing sound before the water was dumped on her was hilarious. Barth's burgers, such a restaurant wouldn't stay open long, and his employee who would regularly get brained with a frying pan.

    This was one of the first shows I watched on Nickelodeon. If I recall correctly it was followed by the show "The 3rd Eye".
