Aw, man. That was one of my favorite shows as a young teen.

My favorite channel was Nick at Nite between the hours of 3 and 5 in the morning. I would literally get up every morning and watch it, Bewitched and Gilligan's Island. When I could, I would also watch Mr. Ed. If I was going to have cable TV, that's about the only channel I would be interested in watching, assuming they still play the true classics and nothing from the 80's or 90's. The 80's isn't classic yet. I'll let you know when it is.

The Robot and Doctor Smith interactions were always fun. I am fairly sure it was the only show that managed to get away using the word "boobie" on TV in that decade. :p:

These were new, first run shows, when I saw them as a kid. You're making me feel old. ;)

How do you think I felt when some kid talked about that old show, "Fresh Prince of Bel Air"?
