I've been hooked on TV since I was a small child, home sick with chronic ear infections & watching game shows & soaps with my 2nd-shift working dad. I miss Match Game; Gene Rayburn always made the show a lot of fun to watch, & the panel was hysterically funny! Rumor has it that they were imbibing a bit, but who cares?? They were great!
I miss some of the old soaps that used to be on: The Doctors; Texas; Santa Barbara; Another World. I grew up watching them, & now it seems like daytime TV is trying to get rid of most, if not all, of the soap operas! Even game shows are being phased out, it seems. What are we supposed to watch during the day?! I suppose there are a few people left who don't have cable/satellite, & they're going to be stuck watching what? Since Hallmark removed TBAA from it's schedule, I have nothing to watch during the daytime except Days of Our Lives. *sigh*
Old but good comedies: see my favorites! I'll be adding more eventually, I'm going to concentrate on some drama for now, I think. I have definitely watched a lot of TV - I used to even read all the credits at the end of programs/movies! It's nice to see a lot of the old names are still there - new generations! Just like any other profession, folks in the TV/movie biz pass on their trades to the kids & grandkids, & it's all good! Do someone a favor - read the credits the next time you watch a show you enjoy; those behind the cameras deserve recognition too!
