Monday's Question of the Day - February 6, 2017

I took a long nap today so I'm awake enough to come up with a question before I go to bed this week!    Although I didn't come up with this; it was going around on Facebook and I remembered it thinking it would be good to ask here.  If I wait till my morning I might forget what it was!  

What old TV show do you wish you could bring back?

I miss The Golden Girls.  I was a kid when that was on but I have every season on DVD now.  It would have to be the original cast and still set back in the 80s though!   

Easy Jon Stewart

Hill Street Blues

Designing Women. Loved Julia Sugarbaker (Dixie Carter). I wish I could find it on a local TV station. You'd think that with Antenna TV and METV, they would get it sometime.

Also Murphy Brown.

The Sopranos.

The Nanny

House, I really miss a Dr. that can be so brilliant  and so without a bedside manner. he truly told it like it was!

Poirot, Law and Order, Daily Show with Jon Stewart, Black Books, Arrested Development

Macgyver, SeaQuest DSV, another show that was on around the same time as SeaQuest that I can't remember the name of (Earth-something I think), Fraggle Rock, Full House, Alf, Voyage of the Mimi, Degrassi High.

Alias was my favorite. Private Practice. Law and Order...can't think of any others...

I really loved that show too, great minds think alike! 

how could I forget House??!!! I LOVED his attitude!! Kind of crappy but he just had some good punch lines,.

Maverick. Now that's going back. It was clever and funny. I miss a lot of those old Westerns. Bonanza is still on and looks tacky, but it was cutting edge at the time. They sure beat the variety shows based on vaudeville.

Will & Grace!  Which they are doing a 10 episode come back, & I am excited!! 

I think one of my favorites was Six Feet Under as well as The Addams Family, (loved Lurch and Cousin It).  

My other all time favorite was Gilmore Girls, my daughters and I would bond over watching it together - my oldest said she was Lane and my youngest mirrored Rory.  I guess that left me to be Lorelei, lol.  My husband started watching with us in the later episodes, of course, he liked Luke.  

Pushing Daisies. It's hilarious. Only 2 seasons, definitely not enough. Corner Gas too.

For some of the others I liked, such as Law & Order and House, some of them ran so long they kind of ran out of ideas. I'd rather watch the season DVDs than have them try to torture another season out of them!

That's an easy one. I wish they would bring back Mad Men. I just started watching it two years ago and I fell in love with Jon Hamm. He's is so cute in those commercials for H & R Block.

Growing up in England in the fifties, we had all the westerns & we loved them. The Lone Ranger, Rawhide, Wagon Train, the Big Valley, etc., etc.

Brilliant show. HBO needs to get its act together & bring out some fantastic shows again.
