I liked (don`t laugh) Little House on the Prairie ( I had a thing for the older sister), The Rookies ( Kate Jackson was the nurse), Ponderosa ( I liked Hoss)...thats all I can think of

This is a tough one. Fantasy Island or The A Team? I just don't know.

Only kidding.

I have always been a fan of NYPD Blue as far as network TV dramas go. (granted I watch very litle network). As a youngster The Fugitive followed by Mission Impossible were must see shows.

Hard to disagree with Hill Street.

I always really liked Dallas, too.

Journey... Is it true the animal activists got very up in arms every time Hoss got on his horse? (hehe)

JudgeWapner · May 21, 2004

JM,you tell me you also like Liza Minella,I am gonna be very concerned.

Journeyman · May 21, 2004

Hey but you have to remember I was just a kid when that show was out...that older sister was fine,lol..

No Judge I DO NOT like Liza Minelli...she makes me sick actually...

JudgeWapner · May 21, 2004

We used to go to a friend's house to watch MNF,part of the deal though was his wife got to watch Little House,which was on right before the game.Was always an hour of pure hell for us.

Days of Our Lives

Journeyman · May 21, 2004

She wasn`t blind in real life man...And she wasn`t blind when the show started...oh my gosh, I knew the Little House reference was a mistake!

I liked Eight is Enough too lol...you gotta remember I was like 12 at the time, that one sister on 8 is Enough, was sweet...

I don't know about all time, but I am currently addicted to watching "The Shield" on Tuesday nights on FX.....my roommate and I watched it from the opening night and have watched it religiously since....

I knew this was going to be a twisted series when during the opening episode, a cop on a drug raid blew a drug dealer away and then put a bullet between the eyes of one of his own crew to silence him from snitching on the crew's dirty dealings.....

It's kinda like Hill Street Blues but all the cops on the strike team are dirty.

I guess if I had to narrow down and think of all time....the old episodes of "The Twilight Zone" made by Rod Serling would rate high for me......don't know if you'd call that drama, more sci-fi.....

Never did watch "The Sopranos", probably would like that also cuz I'm into the mob, cop shows, and all those true life crime shows on A&E, History, and Discovery channels....

Journeyman · May 21, 2004

I watched Days of Our Lives for 12 years..

My favories on Days...Billie (both Billie`s) Kerrie, Kate Roberts (older but still fine) even Sammie has come a long way!
I miss Stefano (alltime Soap Villain!)

JudgeWapner · May 21, 2004

There was a show in the 50's.Don't remember the name.They did live 1 hour dramas.Had some of the best writers around.Serling among others.Requiem for a Heavyweight first appeared on it.Was the fore runner of all tv dramas.Anyone remember the name?

wilheim · May 21, 2004
