Interesting, many of your shows were part of ABC's TGIF, and mine (Brady Bunch, Partridge Family, Room 222 and The Odd Couple) were part of the '70's version of TGIF even though it was never referred to as that.

That about sums it up for me, too. Although I can remember my mother saying, "It's time for Harriet and Ozzie," as she called it. I don't remember the really old ones, but do remember the newer ones where Rick always sang a song at the end. I also remember it and others switching to color in 1965.

I'd also add The Andy Griffith Show, The Dick Van Dyke Show, and The Danny Thomas Show to the list, but I remember seeing those in daytime reruns, probably during thr summer.
