Whatever happened to... TV shows that are gone...

[zombie04]

Eerie Indiana and Salute Your Shorts...those were two good shows for me to watch after school. Ah, the memories. What I never understood though was how did people watch Power Rangers? That started about the same time Eerie was going off the air and I just thought it was stupid and so were all my friends for watching it. At least when that happened I started watching Dawn of the Dead, so I guess it worked out well for me.

Fact or Fiction was a good show. There are a lot of shows that I use to love to watch that have just died out, but most are from the eighties. I use to love the V mini series, and then the TV series that came out, but was very disappointed when it got the can

Yeah I dont get the Power Rangers... they took off when I was a youngin' and I remember trying to watch an episode and just going... i'm too smart for this isht...

I miss Greg The Bunny. It had a short life on Fox, but I thought it was pretty damn funny. Anyone seen the new show, "Californication"? Good stuff.... I was surprised by Californication because I had expected that I would hate it, but actually it was pretty decent.

Eerie Indiana was AWESOME... loved the episode about the family next door and the kids slept in tupperware containers to stay the same age forever... Which reminds me... I miss camp anawana... aka salute your shorts... and hey duuuude at the end when the twins have aged, its the twins who are in gremlins 2, and the mental hospital guard who gets poked in the eye in terminator 2. OMRI KATZ!

i watch nothing that is on major network TV today -ABC, NBC, CBS and FOX are all banned from my presence. the only tv i will watch on things are the science channel, discovery, military history, etc. that and guilty pleasure things that are on syfy and chiller. i don't follow any show week to week. can't do that. fucking bores me after a month or so- even the mighty X-Files lost me after season 4. only the star trek shows and the mighty babylon 5 have held my interest for more than a few weeks. i like the old, the obscure. night gallery, fantastic journey, the logan's run tv show, planet earth, supernatural (1977 BBC version), boris karloff's thriller, both alfred hitchcock shows, the old outer limits.

Ohhhh yeahhh Are You Served was awesome... I loved the snippy gay guy and the old skeeze who kept changing her hair... she reminded me of the lady from Trinity Broadcasting Network that always changed her hair color... it was like a mood ring for hair... i'm pretty sure thats still on... Are You Being Served is the only brit show that I have really liked since I first saw it on the local pbs station. I guess it was because the characters reminded me so much of the people at the places I worked at. They did do a spin off show called Are You Being Served Again that took place some years later after the crew at Grace Brothers had retired and were running a country inn. IIRC it only had Mr Humphries, Captain Peacock, Mrs Slocombe, Ms Brahms, and Mr Rumbold. It was ok, but it didn't capture the fun of the original show. The show had such a big following in the U.S. that pbs did a live audience special where they had 2 of the surviving cast members, Molly Sudgen and John Inman, telling stories about the show and taking questions and answers.

Keeping up Appearances is still on but I just need more of it! I've always wanted to see Sheridan... and Liz's husband... lol you're talking about two really old shows there...Are you being Served (correct title or is the US show called Are you served?) ended in the bloody 70s and Keeping Up Appearances hasn't been on anything but repeats since the mid-90s. Patricia Routledge was a genius in that show though, it really was a great comedy. I don't think you ever get to meet Sheridan, but there might be one episode where he pops up if memory serves me...but probably not. Those sort of ongoing jokes were always made legendary by what you didn't see. As for axed shows that shouldn't have been axed - how about, from the US, "Dead Like Me" - that was a cool show! Other show we enjoyed but didn't get US exposure from what we know, was a reality gameshow called Spy - where they train people up in espionage and get them to do covert "missions" in day to day life - it was really good fun and very awkward.
