I thought it was pretty good. I hope the following ones are just as good, if not better.

Yes I have seen two episodes and have enjoyed both. It is the right length. I prefer to be in suspense til the next episode rather than to fast forward through dull spots.

I watched the first 2. They were allright, although there was a couple things I knew about allready, like Barbera Edens pregnency just as she started doing "I Dream of Jeannie" & how ABC inittially was against Fonzie wearing a black leather jacket on "Happy Days".

That's the point!That why shows like these upset me.All they're doing is re-hashing things that we already knew,with one or two new things;but STILL it's the same ol',same ol'!Take last night episode;I KNEW that Carrol O'Conner was in the running for Skipper on Gillian IslandThe plot for The Munsters was shot in color,and several other so called "secrets".What they should have explain was WHY ;why wasn't so and so right for the part;that would have been interesting!Still,it's not as bad as I thought it would be.

So why are you watching? If you think you know everything, then don't watch.

I thoroughly enjoyed it. First I enjoyed seeing the stars talk about their shows. Even if I knew alot of the stuff I did learn a couple of things, I liked the flashbacks too like Barbara Eden talking about the navel and they would show parts of episodes with the navel showing and they would point out the navel to us viewers. I missed all that in it's original run.....

same here. I already knew some of what they said, like they origannaly wanted Carrol O'Conner to play the skipper on "Gillagans Island" and Jerry Van Dyke for Gilligan (they didn't say why he turned the role down, though. It was because he read the script and said it was "the worst peice of crap he ever saw!") but I still enjoyed it. And they also said some things I never knew. Like, they first wanted Betty White to play Blanche on "The Golden Girls" but she didn't want to play a character similar to Sue Ann Nivens (from "The Mary Tyler Moore show").
