Mister Ed-I would give anything to have a animal talk to me!

Brian · 06-03-2004, 01:40 AM

My favorites from that list are The Addams Family, Bewitched, Mister Ed, and The Munsters. From those I like My Favorite Martian the most but for quality I like Bewitched. Bewitched lasted 252 episodes and it was creative, except for the last few seasons. That show has a lot of great episodes. I like it but I like MFM more as a favorite but Bewitched is the best as far as quality goes.

Gilligan's Island. Pure, mindless fun.

Bill Bixby is one of my fav actors, but I voted Jeannie. Always have loved that show.

Since I already commented on this thread back in ‘04, I’ve decided to do something different. I’m putting those shows from most to least favorite.

1. Mister Ed - I love this show. Mister Ed is a funny character and his relationship with Wilbur is sweet.

2. The Munsters - Herman Munster is one of my all-time favorite characters and this is just a funny show.

3. Bewitched - I'm pretty much just a fan of the Dick York years, especially the first two seasons. Those are really great. I'm invested in the new marriage of Darrin and Samantha but as the show goes on, it just becomes mediocre.

4. The Addams Family - Even though I prefer "The Munsters," I'll always have a fondness for this series.

5. My Favorite Martian - This is a fun little show. I haven't seen it in years but I liked it when I saw it.

6. Gilligan’s Island - I don't know about this one. I kinda like it but I can't call myself a fan of it. I prefer Bob Denver as Maynard.

7. I Dream of Jeannie - I'm not really a fan of this series. It's not horrible, but not one I like. Barbara Eden is great though.

8. My Mother the Car - This is an infamously bad show but I can tolerate it, haha. It's still not good though.

9. The Flying Nun - I've just never cared for this show. I prefer Sally Field as Gidget.
