We are watching survivor right now. I'd like to find Three's Company and battle of the network stars.

I watched Dallas over the last 6 months or so. Loved it.

Probably beats the dipshit reality shows many are watching on Netflix these days.

It’s not bad through two episodes. But, I’m probably going to pivot to music soon

Perry Mason. Paul Drake was the man every man wished he could be.

Me too but that was my sarcastic backlash for the lack of Rockford respect.

Some of that Lynda Carter swim competition video made me feel funny as a young man....and again as an old man but, at that time, I knew what was happening.

I don't like this fake Rocky. It's not the same.

I've fallen down the rabbit hole of 80s stuff on Pinterest. I'm going to order pom pom socks and tinkerbell bubble bath.

Edit: Want a waterful ring toss.

Rockford Files holds up better than the Mary Tyler Moore show. The original Bob Newhart show holds up better than either of them.

A few years ago, I spent about six months slowly working my way through the original Mission Impossible TV show from the late 60s and early 70s. Those were a lot of fun.

I've never seen any of those. I'll bet they are good.

I loved Get Smart when I was a kid and I probably didn't get 75% of the actual jokes.

At first I thought this post belonged in the Drinky thread, but then re-read it to find correct grammar and punctuation.

OF course, I always read them as C.M. Burns!!

Just finished a YouTube compilation of how the Simpsons predicted the future...Excellent!

Ken seems like a well spoken drunk. Practice, I assume

Better or worse than narrow knit ties of the late 80’s?

Better. Those knit-ties - what the hell was going on there?

Those better never come back.

Thinking about this a bit more...shouldn't I Spy have a comma?

I mean I, Spy is talking about the people - focusing on the characters. I, Dr. Ken.

I Spy with no comma is just commentary on an action. Anyone can spy. A show called I Smoke tells me nothing about that show.

I had no idea David Chase produced these before he did The Sopranos.
