I had older brothers and PBS was one of the only channels we could get....so, Nova, 3-2-1 Contact, etc. We were also big nerds.

As we got a little older it was MASH, Quantum Leap, A-Team, Airwolf, China Beach.

Family shows were Murder She Wrote, Matlock, etc.

Saved by the bell the zack was taming strange every episode. On a serious note, even though he piuttes from the rough and was 50 years older than me, I enjoy perry mason. I watched the hell out of Seinfeld. No matter how many times I saw the same episode I could watch it over and over to this day, great show

Quantum leap.

Egg, would you support a remake of the show? I've always thought that they could re-invent the show. Maybe even bring Bakula back in the role of Al.

Although Bakula has a good gig now. I'm enjoying NCIS: NO.

I'll define kid as up through high school, any show that had at least one season during that time (or ran heavily in syndicated repeats) qualifies.

Basically anything early to mid 90s Nickelodeon was money. Although it's all horrible now that I'm in my 30s. Trust me, I attempted to watch many of them on Amazon Prime a few months ago...

Good call on 'You Can't do that on Television', Mossip. Loved that show.

Also liked Pee Wee's Playhouse and anything from Looney Tunes. Loved Saturday mornings as a kid.

I wasted an hour of my life last night watching Double Dare and Legend of the Hidden Temple. Both awesome shows for their time but a distant second to Global Guts.

I love that 70's show, but it's hard to watch now. They reference Wisconsin University so much that it brings back painful memories.

Every time I just think, "how the hell did we not win the title", then I hear Red Foreman call someone a dumbass and the hilarity ensues.

Fresh Prince was number 1 as a kid.

This was great on Saturday mornings. The drug culture references make it a little awkward for my kids to watch but I loved it.

How much was I doing? Sometimes I needed about $2,200 a day. Sometimes it was just $1,000. (I was making about $50,000 a week.) I did coke all night, then drank at about 3 in the morning to get to sleep so I could get up for a 6 o'clock call al the studio. But around 5:30, you realize that you smell like booze, so you do coke to wake up.

I'm also in the group that puts Ducktales in the iconic category.
