I thought that show is mandatory viewing in Texas.

Well, I'm Texan thru and thru Y'ALL, but can't do the Reba show................

I think I watched that... also loved Hunter, Hotel (a.k.a. Love Boat on Land) and Trapper John MD.

My wife watches it quite a bit, so I've gotten to see quite a few episodes and I agree. It's a great sitcom. The Van character cracks me up.

I only just started really watching prime time t.v. again since we got the tivo thing...now, I get the reality t.v. addiction! I can also craft & sew while I watch so I don't feel guilty.

Rock of Love
The Bachelor
Dancing with the Stars
American Idol
House Hunters International (HGTV)
The Tori Spelling/husband Dean Bed and Breakfast whatever show (it was hilarious watching her scrub a toilet)
Desperate Housewives
Chuck (when is that show returning?)
The Amazing Race
And, sometimes Wheel of Fortune - I don't know why, I rarely can figure out the puzzles
Friends reruns (nightly)
And, usually on weekends "I love Lucy"

American Idol

Amazing Race

The Office

America's Next Top Model

As Time Goes By

A Fine Romance

Keeping Up Appearances

Butterflies

The Goodies

The Office (NOTHING beats the original British version - NOTHING!)

My Hero

(Sometimes I think I live on the wrong side of the pond... )

No Last of the summer wine?
The older shows were a lot of fun to watch, unfortunately Peter Sallis ( Wallace and Gromit) is the only one of the original guys still alive

This is never on but I'd watch the old "Spenser For Hire" shows if they were. Hawk was the coolest.

I have all the Twilight Zones on DVD! Got the complete set.

You reminded me of how much I used to LOVE "Simon and Simon" back in the '80s!

Agreed........... Spenser for Hire Rocked..... loved the 66' Mustang Fastback... :lol:

The Robert B Parker books had great dialogue too.

I have all five - but I bought them individually, as they were released. It's a fun way to kill an hour or so every now and then (like I have an hour to kill every now and then) :wink:

Same here, but I caught an episode on TV not too long ago, & I hardly ever watch TV, so it was funny it was on, lol.

The kid's missing out on something hilarious! It is pretty sappy and inane, but the comedy is awesome.

We've discussed our mutual crush on Balki before. Wow... I was only 3 or 4 when that show was on the air... :shock:

In my case, it would have to be anything with Chris Elliott. His early-90's show, Get a Life, was hilarious only to me. And admitting one of my favorite movies is Cabin Boy will usually result in people slowly backing away from me.

God damn it, I LOVED Get A Life!!

My daughter had a big Balki crush also. She just turned 22 last Thursday and graduated college on Friday. I'm having a very happy and contented Mother's Day today!
