    We are bombarded with some many crap US cop show that are repeated often too. Why don't they repeat the classics more often?
    Get Smart, Bugs Bunny, Paul Hogan, etc.
    What were your favourites?

          How good was Callan? ABC should repeat that on ABC 2.

          I can almost smell Lonley now......

              Men Behaving Badly was a terrific show. Loved the way they would carry on about Kylie.
              I enjoyed the first series with Dermott but Tony was a good replacement.

              Game On was a UK show that was very funny. Birds in the Nest another

              Coupling was by far the best series of shows I have seen until the disaster of the final series.

              The UK way of blending vastly different characters into a show was impressive

                      Rod Stirling's Night Gallery gave me bad dreams for years.

                      The Night Stalker was good too.

                      When I was a nipper, I was very fond of The Samurai, The Avengers, The Man from UNCLE and early Dr Who.

                          The very first episode where Steve tries to dump Jane and picks up Susan is one of the funniest things I have ever seen.

                          "When did you meet Susan? Before you shagged Jane or after?"
                          "During."

                              Dont forget Deadly Earnest.




                              My favoritr old shows were Hancocks Half Hour, Dads Army, Red Dwarf, Monty Python, Fawlty Towers(really liked this) and Callan.
                              They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                                      Apart from Monty Python, the closest thing to a classic TV show i was a fan of is arrested develpment.
