What was your favorite television series growing up?
But I enjoyed the Pierre's and Johnny Depp years, and I believe Peacock the streaming service has episodes also, which are free. So again, what was your go to favorite television series growing up

Since I grew up in the 80s, my favorite show of all time was stolen. When I was growing up, it was one of a good hospital series. One of the only good hospital series made eight around then Besides Chicago Hope. Yeah

A lot of people refer to it as the golden age of comedy, though I'm not sure I'm sure that people have different views about that, but there were a number of similar shows which came out around then, which I still go back to every now and then, and I feel like the content they came up with despite the lack of technology, was simply brilliant. And these are timeless classes

Hey, what's up, Izzy? Yeah. It was a really cool show, and I still enjoy it today. I absolutely love 21 Jump Street, and I recommend you check out the episodes because it just it's one of those shows that age as well. The content in it is still relevant today. So you're quite a few years younger than me, but the content I think you'll still enjoy because it's just a timeless show

Hello and thank you for joining in on this post seen elsewhere. Wow. I remember that show as a kid. My mother used to watch it and she enjoyed it quite a bit, was a hospital drama and I do remember the opening music I always liked. That was a catchy instrumental music to the show. But my mother rather quite enjoyed it. And I remember it being as a kid

Well, thank you, Karen. It's nice to be back. And I appreciate that you like my posts. Yeah. Keenan and Kell, I remember that I watched it. I was rather older when it came out on Nickelodeon, but I do remember it being a very funny sketch comedy series with people that were quite younger than me. And they were very talented. And the writing was cutting edge and very funny

As I branched out, I think we did get to watch 21 Jump Street. That was a good show. Little House in the Prairie, Ben, Gentle Ben with the Bear and the Indian and Denver Pile playing the old Rocky Mountain Man. That was a good show. So Yeah

Hey, Harvard. Thanks for the input. Yeah. Night Rider was a good one. Used to watch it as a kid. And it was a pretty, pretty, unique concept of a talking car. And David hasself was pretty funny. And of course, the classic Dukes of Hazard, Boss Hog and Daisy Duke, that iconic car. But yeah, those two are some pretty well known classics now, from the Eighties, for sure
And by the time it was done, you feel like you're on a journey with these kids because you watch them grow up. And I feel like a lot of the shows and things that I really identify with, sort of mirror that in that I'm growing up with the characters. And so I mentioned the other day, like on another thread about Toy Story and how Andy I was the same age as him throughout the movies

Kind of like Wonder Years was for me, even though Wonder Years was set in the 60s, and I grew up in the 80s, I could still kind of relate to Fred Savage's character on there. And that was one I enjoyed and also like growing Paige growing up with Mike Siever and watching him go through these things that teenagers go through and dealing with it and dealing with his family. So, yeah, that's what those shows kind of do. And everybody has one

Dead. Zeto Washington got his start. I'm saying elsewhere because he'd played Dr. Phillip Chancellor. And he was a good actor then. But I am probably older than all of you because I'm 55, four years old. So I grew up enjoying like Chicago Hope, Hill Street Blues. And that's where I miss TV today is those shows don't exist anymore and they will never be made again

Hey, I'm with you, Ohio. I remember all those shows. I was 45. So you have a little bit of spin on me. But my joint was always the Murder she wrote, which came out in 1984. It was Angela Linsbury as a murder mystery writer who actually solves real murders. And I'm a crime murder mystery guy. I like all those kind of shows. So yeah, Murder she wrote, was my GM

I think in the third episode, Ha Arnold got mugged and he just became hyper aware of his surroundings and like, Is the city okay. It was one of the first shows that actually had children in an urban city setting. So it was just I don't know. I deeply resonated with it. I loved it. And I love how even though the children emote it as children, they would be disappointed, frustrated, they couldn't control everything that happened to them

Yeah, I'm old. I probably shouldn't have been watching it, but it was a show where you could learn a lesson from, too, because there's always some kind of lesson learned at the end of each episode. So again, it probably was good for me to watch. It dealt with a lot of heavy issues for teenagers at a time when shows were not doing that. So it was quite ahead of its time, and it was very cutting edge and you seem younger than me

Hello, Cha. Anonymous it's Neal. The replying again to your post because I just noticed I never answered your question. 21. Jump street is absolutely nothing like Brooklyn Nine Nine in the least bit. 21. Jump street was a show that tackled heavy teen topics and had very little comedy elements other than the fact of the tongue in cheek antics between the undercover cops here and there. But mainly they were busting high school kids for doing unlawful things

Hi, Joy. Yeah. Punky Booster is a classic. There's a hip hop band called Dela. So who I'm a huge fan of in one of their songs, Magic Number. They reference Punky Booster. They say, Unless your name is Booster because Booster is a punk. So they were fans of Punky Booster. Obviously very popular show. Especially if you grew up in the Eighties. And her fashion statement was pretty cool. I dug the way she dressed and the story was quite endearing
