The Facts Of Life

Never missed an episode and could probably whoop butt if they ever came up with a "Scene It" version of the game for the show.

Also -- L. A. Law, The Patty Duke Show (duh!), Xena, and ER.

LOL @ Marshall! There were only a few shows my entire family sat down and watched together - MI was one of them. We loved that show! Another was ABC Wide World of Sports. And well, one more but it's embarrassing to admit - Gilligan's Island!

But yes indeed, MI was a great TV show!

I had forgotten M*A*S*H - another excellent example of a perfect ensemble cast.

Mary! Another Northern Exposure fan! I have seasons 1-3 on DVD and need to get whatever else they have released so far - one of my all time favorites!

I love much of what is on TVLand - especially the old B&W shows - Leave it to Beaver, Andy Griffith. I was born in the wrong era, I think LOL.

sunny - Dark Shadows is indirectly the reason Dallas and Knots L. come in at #2 and #3 on my all time list. I heard friends talking about this new kind of soap (going waaaaay back to 1966) so I started watching. My friends hurried home from school, flew in the door and immediately starting watching DS. They said if I wanted to hang out with them, I'd better start watching (in other words they weren't interested in playing until it was over). I was only 11 but it became my first full fledged soap. My mom was saying Novena's just about, worrying my soul had gone to the devil. LOL! I kept saying oh no, it's not that bad Mom! My DS fave - Quentin Collins!

I cried when DS ended (again, the first of many tears shed over soap opera shows and/or characters - Roman Brady, Bobby Ewing, Val Ewing, etc.!).

We could remake our lists according to categories, ya know....;-)! You know, classic, current, soaps, etc.

See what ya started Dennis! LOL
