    I fear for the sanity of any adult who watches that for their own amusement and I pray my daughter will outgrow it very soon.

    Sirs, Madames,

    Shockingly, considering it's now 1 or 1A (with Columbo) on my list: The Rockford Files.

    Also Maverick--played opposite Ed Sullivan, I believe.

    Have R-Files and Bret, Bart and Beau complete on DVD. Wish I could get Man of the People.

    Never watched Newsradio in its first run ... just slays me.

    Anything on premium cable, or for that matter anything that's been in prime time Monday through Saturday since I started working for AM papers in 1991. I was extremely pissed when Quantum Leap got moved to Friday nights just as I got into this business and haven't kept up with much since.

    Well, I suppose if all those shows go down the tubes, we might have a shot...

    I just thought of another one, That 70's Show.

    TV shows on DVD have ruined me, it is really the only way to watch TV. Like someone said earlier, I love that I can watch 4-5 episodes of whatever show I am into in one sitting. I have been watching The Shield lately and I can't imagine having to wait a week between episodes.

    How old are you? You were around for the first-run episodes of these shows?
