Television Shows! - csrowan - 01-27-2013 We've already got a thread for movies. This is for TV shows, past or present. With special thanks to Netflix and other sites for allowing us to watch old shows that we never got a chance to see all the episodes of back to back. I was going to start watching Frasier, but then I decided I would watch Cheers first, just for the sake of continuity. Also, if you use Netflix and you like Wallace and Gromit, check out Shaun the Sheep. If you have little ones and have already checked out Shaun the Sheep, check out Timmy Time. And for DVD enthusiasts, if you get M*A*S*H on DVD, it comes with the option to turn off the laugh track... absolutely amazing. The power it has without the laugh track is phenomenal. RE: Television Shows! - Tiamat - 01-27-2013 I'm glad laugh tracks are a thing of past. Aren't they? I vote for Northern Exposure. Too bad it's not on streaming.

I think a lot of the 1/2 hour comedy shows still use laugh tracks. And... ditto the Northern Exposure sentiment! RE: Television Shows! - tvguy - 01-27-2013 Not that it matters but Clone just started a thread about TV. http://www.roguevalleyforum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=13409&page=2 RE: Television Shows! - bbqboy - 01-27-2013 I thought that was about old TV.

If I didn't have this job, I'd have to stay home with them! RE: Television Shows! - Simon Peter - 01-27-2013 Netflix has "The Jeffersons", but only on DVD. I hope the start streaming it.

Cheers is old, MASH is REALLY old, so is Northern exposure. And now the Jefferson's RE: Television Shows! - bbqboy - 01-27-2013 I agree. Maybe our new omnipresent moderator can merge these into one.

I decided I had been deprived and so had begun watching that during exercise at the Y (thank you Netflix and free WiFi). The biggest problem, of course, being actually continuing to go to the Y.

Cheesy adventure?.. Lost in space ...and the one where the people were all bigger? Land of the lost? RE: Television Shows! - tealeaf - 01-27-2013 Land of the Giants nevermind, that was where the people were small RE: Television Shows! - Tiamat - 01-27-2013 (01-27-2013, 05:08 PM)tvguy Wrote:(01-27-2013, 05:01 PM)Tiamat Wrote:(01-27-2013, 05:00 PM)GoCometsGo Wrote: Best cheesy adventure shows: Star Trek was great.

RE: Television Shows! - GoCometsGo - 01-27-2013 I never could watch Star Trek. Wild Wild West was way cool though. James West scored the better looking dames RE: Television Shows! - csrowan - 01-27-2013 Cheers, season 1 episode 4 Quote:Dave: Well, well, what do we have here? Hi. Dave Richards.
