I don’t watch much tv anymore. But if I did, it would be watching cartoons with my daughter or following WVU sports (they’d been breaking my heart as of late). But when I was younger, these shows were great. Entertaining, funny and worthwhile. Some were re-made – like Knight Rider, which was a disaster (nice try NBC). Is there a petition of some sort where we can bring these shows back? If anyone knows, let me know.
1. The X-Files – a must watch every Sunday in the dorm room with my roomate. I believe our next door neighbor is still an alien. The shape of his head was freaky.
2. The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air – By far the funniest show I’ve ever watched on tv. Carlton rules. Nobody can get enough of the dancing.
3. Seinfeld – Never has a show made something random and irrelevant so hilarious.
4. Old School Nickelodeon Shows – You Can’t Do That On Television was my favorite. The sliming was great!
5. Unsolved Mysteries – Robert Stack’s voice is so creepy yet awesome.
6. MacGyver – If I were not a designer, being like MacGyver would be my next choice as a profession. Did you know his first name on the show is Angus? What?
7. The A-Team – How can you not tune in to a show that blow up stuff and has Mr. T in it? A new movie in the works too.
8. Knight Rider – A talking car in the 80’s was crazy!!! That’s why I liked it. Bring back the Hoff and give him the same Trans Am.
9. Married With Children – Funny line from Kelly – ” Bud, I’m gonna kill you and then I’m gonna bury you alive.”
10. Miami Vice – Great action show with guns, fancy cars and mis-matched suits. No wonder my dad got me watching it.

Awesome list. Really liked the X-files and Seinfeld. The remade movie of Miami Vice wasn’t bad. Michael Mann is a great director, the story line could had been better.
Carlton was soooo funny in the Fresh Prince. Love that show. They remade 90210, but it’s not as good as the old one. Remake Saved By the Bell, but that will be soooo cheesy these days. I liked 21 Jumpstreet, that was a cool show too.
Great list, Kervie!
Fresh Prince was awesome (still watch it sometimes on Nick at Nite lol)…and Unsolved Mysteries was the scariest show of all time…especially because I was pretty young when it aired. Speaking of Nickelodeon…I really wish “Are You Afraid of the Dark” was still on…haha!
Along the same lines of Unsolved Mysteries, I miss Rescue 911! I can still hear the intro music in my head..and I also called 911 as a kid “just to see if it was real.” Got me into trouble…
Gotta second Nicole’s mention of Are you afraid of the dark – I LOVED THAT SHOW!
