View Full Version : Favorite Broadcasting Corporation?
*GoodMorningCalgary* 12-03-2002, 12:07 AM which one do you think has the best shows? me personally? Its a tie between ABC and NBC, they both have had incredible shows over the years. The only problem I have is, ABC is a Disney Owned so they have to tone down the adult humor a bit ,but besides that I love em!
p.s does anyone know when disney bought ABC?
callmetootie 12-03-2002, 08:56 AM Hmmmm....here's the networks that I thought did best in a decade:
50's: CBS
60's: ABC
70's: CBS
80's: NBC
90's: NBC
Today: NBC

ClassicTV4Ever 12-03-2002, 03:42 PM I don't watch hardly any prime time TV anymore, but I'll have to say CBS mainly because I just watch "Becker" and "Everybody Loves Raymond" with my mom. But throughout the 80's and 90's (when I actually watched prime time religiously) my favorites were NBC and ABC (they also had the best Saturday morning cartoons).

NBC existed before ABC did. It was (I think) the first network to go coast-to-coast.

Yeah, it was the first network (from what I've read). LOL I'm doing a speech on the History of TV this week in class (we had to choose topics to do speechs on and that's what I chose), and from my research NBC was first, followed by DuMont, followed by CBS, and then followed by ABC. DuMont then died in 1955.
Er The question is a tuffy. I like CBS and ABC the best, NBC isn't bad, I just prefer those two.
