Default Name one show in local syndication and one in national syndication that you were very

impressed by and became a instant fan?

George Lopez for me on (N@N)

Drew Carey on my local (CW station).

Local syndication-Friends on CW 21(I know it airs on TBS but I got hooked watching it on the local station).

National syndication-Married With Children on TBS/TV Land.

For me, it was Jericho on the local CW, and Bacheler Father on RTV.

GEORGE LOPEZ!

Others include Scrubs, That '70s Show, Roseanne, ER, Everwood, Family Guy, House, King of Queens, How I Met Your Mother and Two and a Half Men. I know a few still air but I found them in repeats.

The Patty Duke Show, The Donna Reed Show, Bewitched, I Dream Of Jeannie, My Three Sons (B&W version) - Became a fan of these shows from when Nick @ Nite was good.

The Golden Girls - when it was on the Lifetime channel

The Nanny - became a fan when it aired reruns on some channel.

Everybody Loves Raymond - just recently started watching it on TBS and loving every minute of it.

Scrubs - started watching this on my local syndi feed a few years ago. I then became a huge fan of it. For some reason, I haven't watched a single episode on NBC or ABC though, lol.

I can't name just one show, there are a lot of shows that I don't watch until the hype dies down online and they are in syndication, I tend to like avoiding the pairing wars and all that unintellegent show discussion.
The last "hot" show I remember getting into through syndication has been the original CSI. I also like The Guardian and
Da Vinci's Inquest reruns on Sleuth. Actually, I've noticed that a lot of Canadian shows that get runs in secondary syndication in the US, especially on Sleuth and Chiller, seem to be higher quality than some current American TV shows.
I also admit to getting hooked on classic TV in syndication (I wouldn't be here if I weren't). I love watching the reruns of Newhart and WKRP on WGN America.
TV Land got me hooked on The Bronx Zoo way back in 1999 and I haven't been able to find that show in reruns on any other cable/satellite network since they showed it. Shout Factory needs to make a DVD of seasons 1 and 2.
