The two that stick out for me are Batman and Gilligan's Island. I know Batman had a lot of "celebrity" guests, but I was only 9 and certainly didn't know who they were or really care for that matter. And for a time it was on 2 nights a week. :rolleyes: I really cringe when I see it now.

Gilligan's Island also wears thin with me now. The characters were pleasant enough. Because I was even younger when that series started (7), I guess I didn't notice every storyline was pretty much the same. I do wonder now how it lasted for a 3-year run.

I was also 9-years-old when I first saw Batman and still enjoy to this day at 51. I'm hoping to get the complete series ASAP.

Agree with G.I., I loved the show as a kid but only enjoy a few of the episodes now.

TNBC hang time.

-also really talented, but basely true in real life.
-most of the focus is on the female part.
-no matter how bad the too many cast changes there are and as long as they did make both the main actress/character and the funniest supporting actress/character permanently constant along the way, then this show would tolerably counted to watch.
-all the former 20 hang time cast members had their own completely successful real lives on personalities, families, marriages and careers, ever since this show ended properly.
-all former 20 hang time cast members overcome their problems than most of the original Saved By The Bell cast members in real life also.

Gilligan's Island. I watched it because it was on after school after The Brady Bunch.

I used to love Phineas and Ferb when I was in 6th and 7th grade but now I despise it.

I don't think I could love Married...With Children the same way today that I did when I was a kid.

Me too. That show was hilarious at the time I was in high school, but looking back now, I cringe at how the Bundy's truly despised each other, and you would not want the D'Arcy's as your neighbors.

i agree i got the incredible hulk i would watch it when scif fi channel aired it! then few years later i brought all one time i brought them all on vsh tape online but the picture wasn't good then i brought them on dvd i think they were people taped them off tv!! separated but the picture was bad quality you couldn't tell if they were talking or the lips was movies!! i got ripped off big time! the seaons of the incredible hulk then i also like the 1978 spider-man live aciton series!! i used to rent them on video tape at block busters! you can find some of the 1978 live action spider-man on you tube!! i would pay money on dvd for the live aciton spider-man tv series ! i even read that billy bixby wanted spider-man in the incredible hulk tv movie!! but then they said it would have cost lots of money!! so they went with thor instead of spider-man!!
