My daughter has really fallen under the spell of the original Star Trek series, which was one of my favorites way back when. :shock: I also loved Bonanza which had, as Sherman Potter would say, all the things that make a western great: horses, cowboys, and horses!
What were your favorites?

I liked Howdy Doody and Captain Kangaroo first. Then the Mickey Mouse Club. Then Rocky and Bullwinkle, reruns of the Three Stooges and the Twilight Zone.

There is not a SINGLE show on network TV right now that I think is comparable, the only show my daughter watches is American Idol(other than PBS).

A lot of what was mentioned I watched. One I didn't see was Hogan's Heroes - always watched that with my father.
Also watched Mickey Mouse Club. At the time I thought they were new shows, I didn't realize they were from the 50s.
At the time I'm sure a lot of them seemed like favorites, but I really can't say now which I liked the best.
