Damned good choice, although I’m leaning towards MASH.

 

[lxskllr]

I stand by TwilightZone, but I couldn't fault anyone for picking MASH

 

[Lost_in_the_HTTP]

Wrong.

Wrong!!

WRONG!!!!

 

[Jon-T]

One of my favorite shows as a kid!

Looking back I now know why I am like I am.

 

[BoomerD]

Wrong.

Wrong!!

WRONG!!!!

Let me guess...you were a child when this show was on and the boobage of Peg and Kelly stunned you into stupidity...MWC was a terrible show without those titties.

 

[Ken g6]

Wrong.

Wrong!!

WRONG!!!!

I came into this thread to vote Star Trek TNG. Though MASH is very good too.

Before I even came into this thread my reply was going to be Married With Children.

I approve.

Reruns play all the time on Logo channel.

There is no way in hell that show would make it in today's world. It's fucking fantastic.

MASH

^^^ Is that about a guy named Al who works in a shoe store?

^^^ Is that about a guy named Al who works in a shoe store?

Yep, the life of a man who peaked in high school.

"shoe-betcha!"

I don't understand why people think MASH was so great.

Then again, I'm also not old as dirt.

TwilightZone

I bought the Blu-ray of the first season. Surprisingly great video quality for such an old show, any show really. Tack sharp. It IS "B&W!" It looks incredibly better than it did on those old CR-TVs.

Full disclosure: I have never watched a single episode of MWC or MASH. I lived 20 straight years without a TV and once I got one I stayed away from most series with few exceptions... I watched The Simpsons and some Seinfeld (subsequently bought a lot of their DVD sets too, several other TV series as well that I heard great things about, but I never watched them via television).

^^^ Is there a guy that owns a Dodge in there? You know, a Dodge that seems to change colors and styles in different episodes without explanation.

I hated MASH. It sucked.

Somehow it figures. 😉

I don't understand why people think MASH was so great.

I think part of it was the sociopolitical commentary when no other show was addressing actual worldly issues, certainly not the Vietnam war.

It had comedy and drama; lighthearted issues and serious parallels of the era. It was fairly well-written with groundbreaking content imho. Not my favorite show ever, but I recognize why it was popular.

 

[Captante]

M*A*S*H (movie ~ 1970)

The show was initially popular because it was based on a popular (R-rated) movie and stayed that way for a long time due to some pretty decent writing and a terrific cast.

greatest kid shows ever:

 

[igor_kavinski]

Grown up Johnny Quest is good.

 

[Fanatical Meat]

My favorites off the top of my head:
Original Battlestar Galactica
Reboot version however the last season or two sucked
Star Trek Next Generation, stories were well done, effects were great for the time and even decent for today. I liked how there were story arch’s and consistent characters like Q
Babylon 5 ignoring last season
Torchwood
The walking dead was great and different for a few seasons then they started doing cheap trick cliff hangers and weird over the top stuff but regardless first few seasons were epic. Who would have thought a zombie apocalypse story would mostly be about the survivors.
And Buck Fucking Rodgers the first Season was awesome

For the time they were good thought provoking stories.
