when they origionally aired, but started to like them after they ended? (This excludes TV shows that aired before you were born or when you were little.)

I'm really starting to like Futurama now. I never liked it very much before. Now, I think it's pretty funny. It's not as good as The simpsons though, IMHO.

I didn't really watch or care for "Wings" all that much when it was new. However since 1999 from USAM I've been a fan. I'm also one
of the few who thinks it's better than, dare I say, "Cheers".

Ooh, that's another one. I avoided "Cheers" during it's original run. However, I kind of like it now.

I guess "Futurama" would be the same. I didn't fall in love with the show until the first season came out on DVD. Now it's one of my favorite shows.

Non Sitcoms: "Sliders" My sister had a crush on Jerry O'Connell and started watching it. I didn't watch it until reruns on the Sci-Fi Channel and liked it so much I taped most of them.

Seinfeld was the exact opposite for me. I watched it during the original run, and liked it. But now I can't stand it in syndication.

I never watched Coach or Roseanne in their first seasons(which were the best I daresay) but I am an avid fan now!


I also never watched Taxi. I've tried watching the reruns, but never could get into it! Same with Cheers and MASH.

Well when Roseanne first premiered on ABC in October of 1988 I was 3 months old... LOL I never watched it on ABC but did watch it on TBS back in 1999 and 2000, then quit watching it, and now I'm back to watching it again.

I didn't start watching Family Matters til it moved to CBS for it's final season. I was watching reruns on TBS at that time.

I also like Wings better than Cheers, although both are favorites of mine.

I never watched Cheers, but when it was on Nick at Nite in the last few months I managed to catch 30 or so episodes. Really like it.

I've never seen Seinfeld. I've seen clips and promos, but never a whole episode.

Yeah that's so true. When I was younger, I used to watch shows like Matlock, All In The Family, and Roseanne. Now I can't stand those shows! Now I'm into shows like Wings, Perfect Strangers, and Three's Company. Back then, I never liked those shows but now I do. :D
