What is the first show everyone remembers seeing when they were a kid? For me it was definitely The Brady Bunch!! I've watched it in syndication as far back as I can remember and I think I was able to quote lines from it when I was about 3. That's why it holds a special place in my heart :) I think the second show might have been Laverne and Shirley.

For me it was Sesame Street. I was about two when it premiered.
My mother used to tell me that I was so mesmorized by this program that I would actually stand in front of the TV and watch.
My mother would tell me to sit and watch, but I would just stand there. Finally she would have to physically sit me down to watch.
I also remember always getting up and hiding whenever The Count came on.
But, I'm older, and no longer fear The Count.
Now I get up and hide whenever Judge Judy is on.

My very first really vivid memory is of watching Cheers. My dad loved the show but my mother hated for me to watch it because ::gasp:: it had a bar in it!
So whenever she'd be out in the evenings or away for awhile he'd let me watch it (i was maybe 2...)
lol, yeah. I remember the theme song better than anything- when it came to n@n i was like "i know this!!!!!" lol

~cara~

For me it has to be......*thinks* "Bewitched."
I used to get drunk off of that show when I was young(er). I think it premeired on The Superior N@N in 1989, so I was maybe 2 or 3 when I started watching. When it comes to first run tho, it's probably Step by Step, Full House, and Family Matters. I forgot the fourth show in the TGIF lineup tho..........

The first tv show that I remember watching, even though I didn't like it at the time was 'The Andy Griffith Show'. I hated that show so much when I was younger. (I was an ignorant child what else can I say? lol) Then I had my spell where I started to like it. Then came the obsession period. :)

The first tv show that I remember watching that I really liked was 'Batman'. I loved that show. I watch it and record it now that its on tvland, and I get so much of a laugh out of it still. I think when I was younger, I liked the Batgirl season. For some reason, I just don't like the Batgirl season now. I'm not saying Yvonne Craig isn't a good actress. It's just whenever you add an extra character to a show, the ship starts to sink.

I think it was Falcon Crest. :p

Well my first memory was of watching "ALF" on German television. I always had to get home on Monday nights to see my alien according to my mom lol

The first TV show I watched had to have been on Nickelodeon or the Disney Channel. Those were pretty much the ONLY channels I watched in my younger days.

Falcon Crest?

The first show I ever watched was Days of our Lives! I can also remember watching Batman, when I was younger. But the first show I ever watched was definitely Days of our Lives like when I was a day old, o.k. mabye not that young but when I went home from the hospital my mom watched it and so did I she says, she used to watch it ever day and tape it if she was gonna miss it, now she doesnt' get to watch it as much but I never stopped. I want to act on that show someday, you wait and see if I don't.:happyface

Sesame Street for me too. First time I saw it was in the early 70's.

I Love Lucy was the first show I remember seeing.

The first show that I remember was "Gilligan's Island". (First run). I had to be 3 or 4. I remember my mom getting me out of the bathtub and hurrying up to get my pajama on and then going over to a table in the living room, getting out a chocolate "Tootsie Pop" and sitting on the floor watching Gilligan. Wow, what great memories!!!:)

I'm not exactly sure, but I remember I was addicted to Saved By The Bell and thought everyone on that show was so cool I eventually saw every episode and went crusing on the web for sbtb sites...that was back when I had aol 3.0 I think...

It's hard to say which show was the first one I remember watching. These are some of the shows I first remember:
Golden Girls
Cheers
The Cosby Show
Family Ties
Night Court
Growing Pains
Who's the Boss
I Love Lucy
Mr. Ed
Dragnet
Dobie Gillis

My God...I have no idea what the 1st one was. But my earliest memories are of:

"Simon & Simon"
"Dallas"
"The Dukes of Hazard"
"Sesame Street"
"Mister Rogers"

I guess maybe one of those, but I'm not sure...

The first show I remember seeing is Press Your Luck or either Remote Control (Old MTV Game Show). The Whammy's were cool! I wasn't afraid of them but I watched it.

MY PUNKIN KITTY CAME BACK THIS MORNING AFTER BEING GONE FOR THREE WHOLE DAYS:):):):):)!

I loved Press Your Luck. I miss watching the reruns of that show. :(

The first show I remember seeing is The Cosby Show. And I think the one with the juicer was the one I can remember seeing as a young child.

Well, since I have been around since the dawn of T V prime time, it would be either I Love Lucy or The Honeymooners.(Both first run , of course!):lol:

I remember my dad watching The Honeymooners . So naturally I watched it too!

Other early early shows that I remember watching are:

Robin Hood
Howdy Doody
Sky King
Pinky Lee
Art Linkletter's House Party
American Bandstand
The original Mickey Mouse Club(Annette Funicello was my idol!)

Everything was in black and white way back then! Our neighbors got a color television in 1957(I was 7 at the time) and the first color show I saw was Bonanza.:tv:

Ok One more time! Here she is!

I think the very first show I saw was called, "The Magic Garden" with a pink squirrel named Sherlock.

If it's sitcoms, I think it would be Welcome Back Kotter or Good Times.

I remember St. Elsewhere, Hill Street Blues and Cheers.

I remember watching I Love Lucy when i was 2! i was the only 3 year old who could memories quotes from that show! I also remember watchin I dream of Jennie & Bewitched.

If we are talking about shows in their 1st run... hmmm i think Saved By The Bell or Full House.

I watched classic sitcoms for years before i watched prime time. I was so lucky to be 4 years old and i'd stay up with my grandparents til 11 waitin for my mom to come home from work (she worked night shift) HeHe

I'm not sure but I think it might have been
Punky Brewster.

The first I can remember is Knight Rider, I remember David Hasseloff name was Micheal, but back then Micheal Jackson was the biggest thing alive I would call David Hasseloff Micheal Jackson, and I remember his black trans am car with the red scaner K.I.T.T

Barney The Dionasoar (I was like 2 when it came out)
I Love Lucy

Ohhhh

Gilligans Isle

Barney, i used to love it.

The first TV shows I can actually remember watching was watching The Golden Girls with my grandma and watching Cheers with my mom when I was around 5.

My mom used to watch N@N allllll the time when i was about 3, i remember watching i luv lucy and bewitched and some other shows w/ her

Well I remember watching wrestling when it was actually decent,Sailor Moon, and The Mary Tyler Moore Show

Oh lord. I'm guessing Diff'rent Stroeks since my mom thought Arnold was such a cutie. So I'm pretty sure it was DS in the late 80's. :D

I'm not exactly sure, I know it was one of these four:
Facts of Life
Diff'rent Strokes
Gimme A Break
Dukes of Hazzard

I cant say what was my FIRST show..but the ones that stick in my mind are:
Patty Duke
Mr.Ed
Munsters
Cheers--I HATED that (still kinda do!)..my parents LOVED it..I was just kinda forced...so ya know lol Im kinda alienated from it!
Family Ties
The obvious ones are like Sesame Street..DUH

I don't really remember that but I know that the first show I liked was Wheel of Fortune.

The first for me was The Golden Girls

Then SBTB and L&S

I really can't say,it has been a longish time after all.
But I do remember shows like Sky King,Rawhide,Rocky & Bullwinkle,Touche Turtle,My Mother The Car,Get Smart,My Favorite
Martian,etc.

i remember watching whose the boss, i dont remember any of the plot lines until i see it now and i can remember watching it.

I don't remember what was "the first show" I watched but I know these are the ones that I remember watching in my early years:

"The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh" (I was obsessed with it back then!)
"Ducktales"
Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, Chip and Dale, Pluto, and the rest of the gang disney shorts
"Jeopardy!"
"The Wheel of Fortune"

The very first three classic t.v. sitcoms that I watched was
I Dream of Jeannie
Bewitched
I Love Lucy
Nick at Nite aired them back in 1994 from 8:00 to 9:30pm.

It might have been the original Mickey Mouse Club, I still have my MM ears.

I'm pretty sure it was "My World and Welcome To It"

Well I was born in July of 1977.. The funny thing is, the first memories of TV shows I have are of the news. I remember seeing the one year anniversary of Elvis' death on the news. The first television shows that I can actually remember seeing were: The Muppet Show in the late 70's and early 80's, Sha Na-Na, Hee-Haw, BJ and The Bear, CHiP's, Dukes of Hazzard, WKRP In Cincinatti, Mork and Mindy, and The Love Boat, The Fall Guy, all of these shows when they originally aired in prime time.

I am pretty sure I will edit my post when I remember more. I really did watch a lot of tv shows in the 80's.

Oh yeah, of course A-Team when it first began airing in 1983. I also used to watch one of the first Japenese Anime cartoons that came to America before Robotech or Voltron did. I think this was around 82 or 83, I think it was called Gatcha Man, or G-Force in Japan, but here in America it was called Battle Of The Planets.

Oh yeah, the last 3 seasons of Three's Company, and I remember "Fame" the tv series, as well as Square Pegs.
