What did you watch on TV when you were younger, and really wish you could see again now? What shows do you really miss?

Here are some of my favorite old shows!

Highway to Heaven
M*A*S*H
Taxi
Golden Girls
All in the Family
The Ed Sullivan Show
Rowan and Martin's Laugh In
The Smothers Brothers' Show
St Elsewhere
Mork and Mindy
The Mary Tylor Moore Show

So, what are some of your favorites?

Shalom!

I know there are more that I just can't think of now.
I'll come back later if I can remember them!

Good Grief, Least! What do you do to numb your brain when it's overloaded?

I remember them, mariechi!

Oh, and I also liked Herman's Head.
It was a short-lived comedy series with a delightful concept at it's core. Awesome!
Anyone else remember that one?

What other shows do people miss?
