robyrob · 08-23-2010, 08:32 PM

NBC - The Facts of Life, Alfred Hitchcock Presents, NBC Sunday Night at the Movies, NBC Monday Night at the Movies, Riptide, Remington Steele, Family Ties, Night Court, Knight Rider, Misfits of Science

ABC - Heart of the City, ABC Sunday Night Movie, Growing Pains, Head of the Class, Sledge Hammer!

so I'm going with NBC this time

factsoflife · 08-23-2010, 08:38 PM

It was a close call but ultimately i voted for NBC 1985 because of Facts Of life, 227, Punky Brewster, Gimme A Break and so many other shows.

DSfan · 08-23-2010, 11:40 PM

I'd vote for NBC 1985 although I am a fan of Growing Pains on ABC.

That Thursday night lineup for NBC - WOW!

That pretty much seals the deal right there.

icecream · 08-24-2010, 12:17 AM

I went with NBC 1985, it had Family Ties and Highway to Heaven.

Buffyboy323 · 08-24-2010, 02:15 AM

NBC - Gimme a Break!, The Facts of Life, The Golden Girls, 227, Punky Brewster, Silver Spoons, The Cosby Show, Family Ties, Cheers.

ABC - Who's the Boss?, Growing Pains, Head of the Class.

I'll definitely go with NBC, but ABC wasn't all that bad.

comedyfreak · 08-24-2010, 08:21 AM

NBC they ruled.

yankeesrj12 · 08-24-2010, 03:35 PM

I now have the abc 1986 campaign video link so you can now comment who have the better video.

megamanj2004 · 08-25-2010, 01:43 AM

NBC 1985, with this line-up of shows, there's definitely a reason why NBC finally became the #1 network at that time!

ABC 1986, most of them aren't too shabby, either.

Mr. Television · 08-25-2010, 07:46 PM

NBC was at their height at this time. I liked Gimme a Break, FOF, Golden Girls, 227, Hunter, Punky Brewster, Silver Spoons, TV's Bloopers, The A-Team, Highway to Heaven, Cosby, Family Ties, Cheers, and Night Court,

Over on ABC I liked MacGyver, WTB, Growing Pains, Moonlighting, Perfect Strangers, Head of The Class, Webster, Mr. Belvedere, Sledge Hammer

I'll go with NBC overall here though.

bencasey · 08-26-2010, 03:45 PM

Not a lot that I loved on either schedule but Moonlighting and Our World were both great.

tvfreak1987 · 11-21-2010, 11:49 PM
