What were some shows you would watch in the dead of night? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Since "Late Night TV" is a sub-category of this board, guess its not limited to talk shows! Now that the overnight hours are filled with one mindless infomercial after another, there was a time when late-night TV would air re-runs of programs at the wee hours of night. When I was in college, I'd be up many a night studying (with the TV on?) and would catch re-runs of "Three's Company", "A Current Affair" (newsmagazine that made Amy Fisher and Joey Buttafuco a household name), or "Night Flight", a music/interview program that ran endlessly on weekends on cable. I sure miss the "Twilight Zone" re-runs on TNT. Any other hows you'd lik to add?

"Bosom Buddies" was on in the wee hours a few years back. It was on USA for a while and then TBS.

Three's Company was always a late night fav for me.

I love to watch old black and white movies late at night.

Some shows only work either late at night, in the morning, or in the afternoon.

For example.... "Saved By The Bell" is best in the morning.
And IMO, "Three's Company" is best late-night.
