You find em cheesy, LOL. I can remember in college going to our friend Carla's dorm room (she had a single so no room mates to bug us) to get all set up for the newest episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation.
It would be her, me, DW (just a friend at the time), and a couple of other friends of ours. We would get pizza, chips, dip, and pop. It was a huge deal for all of us.
Now, when I watch the show, some episodes are still good, but a lot of them seem cheesy now!

Some I loved as a kid but now can't believe I loved em:
Buck Rodgers
Wonder Woman
Charlies Angels
The Six Million Dollar Man
The Bionic Woman
The Fall Guy
BJ and The Bandit
Magnum PI
Simon and Simon
The A Team
to name a few, LOL

Some I still like:
The original Star Trek
The original Battlestar Galactica
MASH
Hogans Heroes
Trapper, MD
Sanford and Son
The Jeffersons

That is all I can think of right now. Anyone else?

yeah that pretty much nails it. You must be around my age - 38.
The Fall Guy and Buck Rogers are just brutal. Just the worst. I havent seen Wonder Woman in the last 25 years so I cant comment on that except to say I think it would tragic to watch. Now the Bionic Woman.... Lindsay Wagner was HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :bounce:

LOL I can't believe I remembered that many! And Stacy just reminded me of a bunch of others! And you're remembering Magnum PI reminded me of Quincy, MD. I have no idea why, but it did! LOL.

Boy I'm dating myself but do remember watching the originals

As an adult I watched:
Star Trek the original

77 Sunset Strip
Surf Side 6
Rawhide
John Ringo
Mr. Lucky
The Man from Uncle
I Spy
The Avengers (Ms. Peal to die for)
Perry Mason
The Honeymooner's
I Love Lucy

The Milton Berle Show

As a kid we only had 4 hours daily and the kids shows on for 4 hours on Saturday.
Howdy Duddie
Winki Dink
Captain Midnight
Cartoons of course, such as Popeye, The Road Runner, Mighty Mouse
Super Man
Friday Night Fights with my grand father
Flicka
Rin Tin Tin
Lassie
Micky Mouse Club ( had major hots for Annette even after she grew up making beach movies that sucked.)
Some Miami Local shows such as Skipper Chuck and the Dungeon (horror shows).

I've also caught many of the others listed by Mav with Mash being among my favorites. I also like all the Star Trek stuff that has been done but then I love good Sci Fi as well as Fantasy and period pieces.

I'm sure I also left out a few shows that I just don't remember the titles off at this time.

I grew up on ALL of these as well! I'm 38, but Mom and Grandma had these going all the time. I actually really enjoyed WKRP! I still joke today about Les Nessman and his "walls"!! :yum:

I see no mention of Dukes of Hazard, Knight Rider, Air Wolf, The Incredible Hulk, and Master Ninja with Lee Van Cleef.

Although, I can still watch The Incredible Hulk series today. :lol:
