The Brady Bunch  
Gilligan’s Island  
Sanford and Son  
Silver Spoons  
Northern Exposure  
The Andy Griffith Show  
The Honeymooners

No, I am not that old. Those were the shows heavily in syndication when we first got cable in the '80s so I grew to like them. I haven’t watched TV much since. I like to wait until shows make it into syndication before I watch them because that means that they have passed some kind of test and I don’t have to waste my time.

If I was dyslexic I would be flattered. No, I simply had a momentary lapse of common sense and spellled it the other way (‘treck’ is a real word)
