not in a sexual way but in a funny way. :D

but i really used to get off on penny the younger sister as i was a young dude getting it on for her. :D

now dont tell every body i said that as it's a bit embarrasing. :D

thank you very much punting friends. :D

I grew up age 1 to 10 from 79 to 89.... Airwolf. Knight rider, Blue Thunder,

THE A/TEAM!!!!!

Then of course, there were also shows like The Cosby Show, Grange Hill, etc...

My mind appears to have gone blank, or else I didn't watch much else.

My favs after that age (as I got older) were all the re/runs of the old TAXI show, with danny devito, tony danza, christophe lloyd, well... every great comedian from that era.

oh, and the Cosby Show was a good ol show.

Who's the Boss was fun in it's day, and was well replaced by the ol' hand down yer pants ultimate pater familia, Al Bundy in eu... what's it called...?

The Addams Family

The Andy Griffith Show

The Avengers

Dick Van Dyke Show

Gilligan's Island

Gomer Pyle

Green Acres

Gunsmoke

Combat

I Dream Of Jeannie

The Munsters

Bewitched

Beverly Hillbillies

The Outer Limits

Daniel Boone

Flintstones

Get Smart

The outer limits! Doh! I forgot about them! Great stuff! I initially got to know the Outer limits through the "new" series made in the late nineties.

Oh I also forgot to mention, any and all star trek up to and including voyager & DS9 (to a lesser extent)

In the same age group as Kayo so agree completely with him, I do with most of the shows that have been mentioned really. A few that have been missed though Dukes of Hazards, Airwolf and i was a very young lusty teenager just in time for Baywatch! fantastic... And i can't go without mentioning 3-2-1 :o I loved dusty bin

:D

I forgot Dukes! Great stuff!

Baywatch, yeah... great philosophical story lines... that's why I enjoyed that show... :o:D

The People at Fox will be loving this.

Murdoch was so smart serving up all the old quality on cable/satelitte and charging for it!

No one mentioned Maverick and Tenderfoot? My favourite and one which confirmed my suspicions that smoking was really ' cool ', Man in a Suitcase.

11 minutes late again joan , ticket machine tantrums at tottenham.
