A Blast From the Past – T.V. At It’s BEST!

Recently I discovered my cable system has 4 channels dedicated to classic television.

Classic Television

 

and Oh, what fun I’ve been having!

I grew up in the ’80s and I have been watching episodes of shows that I remember my family and I watched together when I was growing up.

T.J. Hooker, Remington Steele, Magnum P.I., Webster, Silver Spoons… the list goes on and on…

But I must confess that I love watching repeats of “Benson”. I record all the episodes. Robert Guillaume was so funny with all his wisecracks! Then there was Gretchen and the governor! Oh, man! There have been plenty of times when I have laughed so hard, my eyes have begun to water!

There is also a channel that airs classic game shows such as Password, Classic Concentration, Match Game, Supermarket Sweep, Family Feud… and a host of other classics!

Now don’t get me wrong. I like a lot of the more popular television shows today, but it’s good to go back and remember “when” with the classic television shows.

They were definitely not as politically correct as they are now. I don’t know about you but I get a sense of enjoyment and “good feels” from the classics. They definitely keep me entertained.  And like I said before, a lot of today’s shows don’t quite do this…

There’s something to be said about shows from your past that just make life more bearable, doesn’t it?

What was your favorite classic television show?
