What was your favorite tv show's growing up?

[308nato]

Good old stuff. It was well after I had grown up that I began to appreciate the old stuff. Old gangster / detective movies are cool too.

Yeah Bogart, Mitchum, Jack Palance, and the list goes on .

I remember all of the shows mentioned above, but my favorites were:

1) GI Joe (even though they never killed any Cobra...WTF? Parachutes every time-really?)
2) A-Team (A good guy is a good guy, even if the law dogs are after you!!!! RIGHT is RIGHT!!!!)
3) MASH (see *)

*Hard to reconcile. As a kid, first time I saw grown males in my family tear up a little. Sorry for getting so sappy, but I was very privileged to grow up knowing some GREAT men who had given so much to our country. One who had to live in a trailer outside his home for several years after coming home to make sure he didn't hurt his family if he woke up with very bad dreams (3 very hot tours in Nam). Every time I think about that show it makes me want to do more for those around me. It makes me want to be a better man, and it makes me appreciate the power of the vote over the power of the gun.

We might well be. Just remember - old men are cantankerous, short-tempered and not as agile as we used to be.

That means we'd jest as soon shoot ya as talk to ya.......

Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom.

Yup! And Timex was the main sponsor. Who was the Timex guy? John Cameron Swayzee? (I know I spelled that wrong.) "We're going to fasten this Timex watch to a fan blade on this F-18 engine and see what happens. Alright! Kick in the afterburners! Hey! It took a licking and kept on ticking!"
