They are going back a bit ;)
ReplyDeleteOf those, I watched Family Ties, Cosby Show, Friends, and Lost. I also loved scifi so I watched Babylon 5 and Firefly.
You have a wide variety here, Wendy. Did any of them inspire you as a writer?
ReplyDeleteMy daughter had a crush on Michael J. Fox, so we watched Family Ties a LOT.
Have a great Wednesday,
Jen
OOOo OOOO! Fun post! :) My 8:
ReplyDeleteCosby Show :)
Little House on the Prairie
24
CSI Miami
Smallville
NCIS
MacGyver
I Love Lucy :)
... I wasn't "allowed" to watch 90210 so I had to "sneak" it periodically LOL!
I still love the Cosby Show!
ReplyDeleteI used to LOVE Family Ties and the Cosby Show. Remember when TV was that good? I also miss I Love Lucy, and I can never find it on.
ReplyDeleteAll great shows! Well except I can't say about Lost. I've never seen it. Can you believe that?
ReplyDeleteI'm dating myself, but I loved The Wonder Years. I'll date myself further to say that I used to wait eagerly for every episode of The Waltons. I wanted John-Boy to fulfill his dream of being a writer. I felt his longing, since that was my dream too. And here I am decades later following mine and meeting many other wonderful writers on the journey.
ReplyDeleteGreat list!
ReplyDeleteMine:
1. Cosby Show
2. Golden Girls
3. Dallas/Dynasty/Falcon Crest (they all belong together)
4. Facts of Life
5. Survivor
I could go on forever!
Love your list! I tend to be a reality junkie, so my faves are The Amazing Race and Project Runway.
ReplyDeleteCan I tell you what a HUGE Santa Barbara fan I was? I named one of my characters Laken, Kelly, Eden... really I'm not that original. ;)
ReplyDeleteI watched Families Ties and Cosby.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun!! Don't think I could come up with eight shows, though??!!!
ReplyDeleteI do love
The Closer
Law and Order
AND Undercover Boss is so satisfying--has all the elements "The Moral Premise" talks about!!
Funny, huh????
Right now, I like Human Target, American Idol--yes, I know--, dog wisperer, and baseball. Oh there's more, but....
ReplyDeleteOkay I'm siding with Karen and American Idol. The last couple of years I only watched half-heartedly. But this year I'm hooked again :)
ReplyDeleteI loved the Wonder Years too. There's something so sweetly nostalgic about that one, and I can't change the channel if I happen upon it.
The Wonder Years! I loved that show...and I thought it was so cool that I also went to McKinley high School!
ReplyDeleteAnd Friends....never thought I'd find another show I loved as much...until How I Met Your Mother started....
And there are times....when I'm having issues with my kids...I ask myself- "What would Cliff and Claire do??"
These days, my favorite shows are: How I Met Your Mother, Modern Family, Dancing with the Stars, Desperate Housewives and Chopped.
I'll play. But since I rarely watch TV anymore, most will be oldies:
ReplyDeleteAlton Brown's Good Eats

Little House on the Prairie
The Bill Cosby Show (80's?)
America's Funniest Videos

great shows. I don't watch much tv but friends keep telling me to watch Lost...one day....
ReplyDeleteI still love The Cosby Show. Every time I watch it I laugh hard. My husband and I watched a bunch of Family Ties episodes on Netflix a few months ago and we really enjoyed those too.
ReplyDeleteOh man... Lost = Amazing.
