Besides the aforementioned MST3K, I’d have:
**Connections
The Day the Universe Changed
Connections[sup]2[/sup]
Connections[sup]3[/sup]
The Dick Van Dyke Show
Rocky and Bullwinkle
The Prisoner** (only the original, Patrick McGoohan version)
**Middleman
The Tick** (live and animated)
Dilbert (animated only)
I haven’t seen all the episodes of the above
I have some dusty old videotaped episodes of ‘Dream On’, that was such a funny wonderful show! Oddly, the adorable Brian Benben who played Martin Tupper on DO is now on the loathesome ‘Private Practice’.
Saturday mornings have never been the same since the end of MST3K, it is sorely missed in the Sali household, as is the Saturday Creature Feature. Kids will never know the thrill of being allowed to stay up extra late for some crappy old science fiction movie, with a local ‘host’. Good times!
I would like to see, for old times sake, a Brit comic series around the time of Monty Python - Doctor in the House, starring Barry Evans. It was highly amusing.
And I would weep tears of joy if PBS also was to re-run Poldark.http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075560/ A disillusioned war veteran returns to his home, takes a girl to a dance, gets a job, goes on to live a life of drama, romance, and intrigue. The war, of course, was the Revolutionary War, his home is England, the dance was the minuette…
China Beach. I loved that show. Wish it would come out on DVD.
Music problems again?
Ditto Get Smart, The Tick, MST3K, and Salute Your Shorts. Also, Mr. Belvedere, Baywatch, and Bill Nye The Science Guy.
Could be. I haven’t seen a specific reason why.
Yeah, he was one smug S.O.B. But fun to watch anyway and the crimes were interesting.
Dean Martin’ variety show
Jackie Gleason’s 1960s variety show
Mostly old shows
“Phil Silvers/Sgt Bilko”
“The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis”
There was a World War II show “The Gallant Men” that debuted the same year as “Combat!”. ABC decided to keep only one of them. I saw an episode on “American Life” network a few years ago while on vacation. Now that my cable has the network, they don’t show it.
“Love that Bob”
“Red Skelton”
A number of shows that I watched as a kid and would like to see again to see just how bad my taste was when young: “Please Don’t Eat the Daisies”, “Camp Runamuck”. “The Pruitts of Southampton”, “Many Happy Returns”, “The Girl from UNCLE”, “My Living Doll”.
Some old shows I have wondered about like “Our Miss Brooks”, “December Bride”.
I never in my life watched “Ozzie and Harriet” so I wonder (a little) about that one.
I’d like to see complete shows of “Ed Sullivan” and “Hollywood Palace”
And for something more recent “Homeboys in Outer Space”
I was just wishing for The Wonder Years also.
The Muppet Show
(althought I was very happy to see Fraggle Rock and those short little fairy tales/greek myth stories Jim Henson did available for instant watching through Netflix. Maybe more of these shows will be made available that way!)
Little Rascals
What’s Happening?
NewsRadio
Northern Exposure
“Love That Bob”?? Wow, that’s going way back! Let’s add “Pete and Gladys” (Harry Morgan) and “I Married Joan” (Jim Backus and the forgotten Joan Davis).
“Here Come The Brides” was wildly popular and disappeared decades ago. It starred David Soul and Bobby Sherman (?) - it’s hard to believe the female star Bridget Hanley (?) is around 70 years old now…
I’d love to run across a random X Files some night when nothing’s on.
Alias would be really cool too.
LOGO (gay and lesbian channel) reruns Buffy sometimes, but it had been awhile since it was on and I missed it.
SyFy (or however it’s spelled now) airs X-Files several nights a week, at around 2 or 3 AM. Outer Limits too sometimes.
ETA: Another show I haven’t seen in a while that I’d like to is The Drew Carey Show.
2 -3 am would tend to interfere with my daytime functioning, I think. Thanks for the tip, though, if I’m ever wracked with insomnia like I was last night!
thud - Zzzzzzzzz
Buffy’s still on pretty often- I just watched “Pangs” on LOGO last week.
That’s definitely one of my favorites. It’s just not Thanksgiving unless I watch it.
My So-Called Life.
I feel fortunate that many of the ones other people are listing are available on cable in my area.
Now And Again, Action, Moonlighting, Champion The Wonder Horse… off the top of my head.
What was the one with Jamie Lee Curtis and the guy with the hair?

And I would love to see Mad About You somewhere occasionally.
