I have episodes of ALF that my mom taped for me when I was little. They're from 1989, I think.

Werm well the oldest thing I ever taped was 90210 for my mom in the mid 90s, lol. The first thing that I liked that I taped was I Love Lucy, even though it's not one of my favorite shows. I think I taped it on accident, because I didn't know about it until I was looking through some old things a few weeks ago lol. Other then that the first thing I started taping was Gilligan's Island off Nick-at-Nite.

I taped "Batman" off of the Family Channel back in 1989. That was the first show I ever taped. However, the tapes didn't last. The show that I taped after that was "X-Men" in 1992. I only taped the first season, and I still have that tape. I also have "Taxi" episodes from 1996.

When I was little, my sister and I had an episode of Punky Brewster on tape that we watched all the time. We watched it so much we had the whole episode memorized. Anyway, I think my parents still have that tape somewhere with all our kids movies, (Mary Poppins, The Ugly Dashund, and Pete's Dragon) that we taped off the Disney Channel.

The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour has been in my collection the longest. I began to tape it in March of 1997. Soon after TLDCH, was I Love Lucy. My first taping of ILL occured on Saturday, July 19th, 1997 and the episode that I taped was #163- "Little Ricky's School Pagent". I continued to tape ILL throughout the rest of the late 90's into the early 00's. Now, I have every episode of each series.

I don't have any on tapes. I always say I'll record my favorite episodes, but being a poor college student, I can't afford new blank tapes.

I have episodes of The Love Boat that I taped off of ABC. I also have the show from WGN--dating back to the early 1990's.
I have other programs too. A couple Benson episodes and Golden Girls...
I also have tapes of One Life to Live dating back to 1993--but the quality is awful now. :(

I have episodes of ALF that were taped off of NBC in 1988. I also have the "Archie Gives Blood" episode of All In The Family that I taped when I was little off of TBS in 1991.

Come to think of it, my grandparents have episodes of Archie Bunker's Place that were taped off of CBS in 1981 and 1982. I can't watch them because the tapes are really old.
