Chicago Med It's not a stupid comedy, although I do like some comedies. Not all doc. jump in bed with each other even though some do. It has interesting cases. The patients and parents don't always agree with the doc. which makes it interesting.

Hart to Hart, because, among other things, Jonathan and Jennifer Hart were happily married and madly in love.

Supernatural is my favorite. Two brothers fighting demons, rogue angels and pretty much anything bad that comes along. It has both drama and humor and a great cast of characters.

The Walton's because it was about a family that loved each other in a simpler time. It was before everything was PC, before video games and before everyone had their face glued to a cell phone texting 24/7.....even while driving. Drug abuse was rare, today there are more than 24.7 million abusers of Meth worldwide. Kids were taught to have respect for others and manners. It was a time when meals were made from scratch, they were nutritious and not a frozen or boxed convenience meal. Family sat at the table and shared meals together. They worked hard for what they had and stood on their own two feet without government handouts even during the depression. It was a time when things were built to last unlike today, we are now the throw away society. They could work on their automobiles, today you need a computer. I think I was born in the wrong time.

I enjoy many, but Andy Griffith is my favorite. Yes, I can recite practically every line in every show. It's my "comfort show". The humor is gentle and people treat each other with respect. They go out of their way not to hurt each other. When I see them "setting on the porch" on a Sunday after supper, it's a nostalgia trip for me to the days when life was much less hectic. You can't go back again and I really wouldn't want to, but it's a nice visit.

Kate & Allie, it has a bit of everything it in. There is the comedy of course as well as the serious storylines and the great characters.

St. Elsewhere. was the precursor to ER.
China Beach. set at an evacuation hospital during the Vietnam War. was first show to deal with Vietnam.

danderson400 · 10-22-2016, 04:14 PM

China Beach, like St. Elsewhere, had low ratings but was a critical hit.

That is so true!!!

Nordy · 10-22-2016, 05:34 PM

Other than Opus' post that is 100% correct about Valerie Bertinelli. My show is Gilmore Girls. I know its supposed to be a "chick show" but the fast paced dialogue, the zany characters, the ton of pop culture references, plus my eye candy of Lauren Graham is enough for me to put it on my top of my favorite shows.

One day at a time as well!

But for me it's because I was introduced to Michael Lembeck!

And CHIPS,because it introduced me to Erik Estrada

Also Leave it to Beaver! Because it's a sweet, funny comfort show !

Same with The Flintstones,Brady Bunch , Petticoat Junction and Green Acres ( and GA is hilarious, off the wall , rolling on the floor laughing comedy

, also the Flintstones has that affect on me too!

GingerPopTart · 10-22-2016, 08:49 PM

21 Jump Street for really giving Johnny Depp his first major role and making him have big exposure.

Bonniegirl · 10-22-2016, 08:58 PM

Along with shows I listed in my last post, I love Lucy and The Lucy show!

Good comfort shows and good memories of my childhood. My Mom was a big Lucy fan, she got me into watching I love Lucy!
