I've been a fan of the retro junk site since it started but never thought of posting stuff here so well done!

I don't know about favourite really, but Six Million Dollar Man is high up there, and it was also the one of the first colour programs I ever watched on TV as I recall.

others from the 70's that stand out for me are:
Mission Impossible, Space 1999, Logans Run (though the film version with Jenny Agutter was better), Fawlty Towers (don't mention the war) and UFO (I have the full DVD collection of that one!)

during the 80's for me, it was mostly stuff like Macgyver, The A Team, Qantum Leap, The Fall Guy (classic!) and stuff like that

Star Trek in all decades goes without saying, of course!

Cartoons has to be Dungeons and Dragons and Scooby Doo(best ever cartoon).
As for programs I have just found Degrassi Junior High in there, anyone remember this, it was a follow up to the Kids of Degrassi Street.

Anyone remember the name of the cartoon where he was a sheriff and he could say "speed of a puma!" and run really quick, or "eyes of a hawk!" and be able to see really well? What was it called?



Scotch And Wry, easily the best Scottish comedy ever. Superb stuff:

Can't find a link for Naked Video, but it was great too

Anyone remember "the little green man and zoom zoom"? I personally loved Dangermouse and does any one remember "Woof"? (the kid who used to change into the dog)


All classics!

And how come no one has mentioned Baywatch. I used to love those big, massive juicy...story lines....

Yeah, there aren't any noteworthy kids shows at the moment, apart from the legendary Spongebob Squarepants, everything else is so mediocre these days.

I used to love Round The Twist, it was an australian programme about a family who lived in a lighthouse and all sorts of weird shenanigans happened to them it was quality.

The iconic (moronic?) Beavis and Butt-Head...they were er... well 'ard...LOL! ("Huh-huh, hey Beavis, he said hard...huh-huh!")
http://www.retrojunk.com/details_tvshows/188-beavis---butthead/

..and together with my other fave, Ren and Stimpy, they fulfilled many of my purile fantasies! (Happy-happy, joy-joy!)
http://www.retrojunk.com/details_tvshows/845-ren-and-stimpy/


And then there was Robotech...with its somewhat deeper plots and complicated inter-galactic sagas and relationships...didn't miss an episode back then!
http://www.retrojunk.com/details_tvshows/126-robotech/

Sigh, I'm such a sentimental wanqa...
