Any classic TV shows you've never seen before that you'd like to see? Here are a few of mine:
He and She
The Doris Day Show
77 Sunset Strip
The Great American Dream Machine (This ran on PBS in the late 60's. From what I've read about it, it was pretty experimental.)

THE REAL McCOYS-I know Cozi TV shows it on weeknights but I don't like that channel because they show everything with black bars on either side of the screen.
Amos & Andy-I've heard about it, but never saw it.

I've always wanted to watch these but never get around to it. I know most of them are on DVD but I haven't purchased them yet.

The Donna Reed Show: I'm waiting to see if MPI re-releases seasons 1-3 before I buy this show. The OOP DVDs are too expensive.

The Ropers & Three's a Crowd: I have never seen ANY of these episodes and I don't get Antenna TV so I'll probably end up buying from ioffer if I ever see these.

The Bionic Woman: I own season 1 but I still haven't seen any of it. I need to watch this.

I've never seen these but I want them on DVD:
Barney Miller
Family Affair
WKRP in Cincinnati
Head of the Class
It's a Living
Just the Ten of Us
Too Close for Comfort
The Closer
Sisters

Definitely yes to The Bionic Woman- both this and The Six Million Dollar Man are great shows- well worth watching.:) :cool:
Of your list above, I've only seen some of them, but I can definitely vouch for Barney Miller, WKRP in Cincinnati and Head of the Class- I've seen at least some episodes of all of them and love them all!:) :cool:

If 12 is the average age then you should fit in quite nicely since it's the age you're acting and not 56 as your profile states.

You've never seen WKRP! You are totally missing out my friend. They have the whole first season over on Hulu for free. You need to go watch. Especially catch the Thanksgiving episode "Turkeys Away" and the tornado episode which is just called "Tornado". That show is so funny!

Same goes for Barney Miller. Look up the episode Hash (It's online too) don't have a drink in your hand when you watch it though. Or, you're likely to spill (because, you will laugh so much)

I've never seen One Day At A Time. That's probably the only (long running) classic sitcom that I have never once watched. I love Valerie Bertinelli. So, I really need to see that one.

As far as short running sitcoms. The only one I even think I'd like to check out is probably The Jefferson's spinoff Checking In. Because, I'm a Flo fan (love Marla Gibbs). It only lasted a few episodes though. So, I really don't see too much of a point to watching it. To everyone who has. Was it really that bad and that's why it got cancelled? Or, was it just because of the scheduling and that's why the ratings were bad? What happened with it?

And, in response to Tubehead. I didn't know Too Close was coming back to ATV. That makes me happy. I love that show. Monroe was my favorite. He was so hilarious.

Too many to list...the great thing about Youtube is that every day, something new pops up. Shows I'd only read about over the years, either in reference guides or even this forum!

One off the top of my head...Kings Crossing. It was a primetime soap from early-1982, a Lorimar Production. It only aired for a few weeks, but it seems to be one of the few early-80s primetime soaps that has no online presence, outside of a few promos.

I've always wanted to see this but I've never seen a single episode of it. The way it's going, we may never see this one on DVD.

Mannix is a show that doesn't seem to have aired too often over the years. I think TV Land had it in the early years, but I haven't seen it anywhere since. It would fit in well with MeTV.

I'm surprised Antenna TV hasn't picked up the other three, although they've aired pretty regularly over the last 25 years.

^Just a heads up about "Once Upon a Time"...

The first 2 seasons are awesome, then it gets very dull and outlandish.
