Here are thirteen shows
THE GAL HERSELF
is happy to drop everything and watch again,
and again, and again.
And if you were here before and the "comments" were screwed up, I apologize. My fault
1) Law & Order. You guys had me at, "In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the police who investigate crime and the district attorneys who prosecute the offenders. These are their stories."
2) Friends. Phoebe referring to Old Yeller as "a puppy snuff film." Chandler announcing that, "Joey's tailor is a very bad man!" Every episode has a memorable moment.
3) The Dick Van Dyke Show. "Oh, Rob …" How I wished my parents were as glamorous as Rob and Laura! I especially enjoyed the episodes where they sang songs like "Mountain Greenery" at their cool dinner parties. My mom and dad played pinochle with my friend's parents at the dining room table. Not quite the same, is it?
4) The Andy Griffith Show. But only the black and white ones with Barney.
5) The Brady Bunch. I have no idea why. It's achingly stupid. Yet I can't turn away.
6) I Love Lucy. I do. Love Lucy, I mean. Plus, I believe the Riccardo's apartment accounts for my fondness for exposed brick.
8) That Girl. The clothes. The hair. The handbags. The romance of New York City.
9) Sex & the City. The clothes. The hair. The handbags. The romance of New York City.
10) Magnum PI. Thomas is a rakish charmer and a much better detective than Higgins (appears) to give him credit for. The cast interacts beautifully, as though they really do have a history that reaches back to Nam.
11) M*A*S*H*. Anarchy and humanity and a ton of puns, all in a half hour comedy. It doesn't get any better than this.
12) Moonlighting. After Hawkeye left Korea, network TV was left with a dearth of smart ass heroes. Then David Addison Raybanned and smirked his way across our screens. Watching the DVDs, I realize that Cybill Shepard was more charming than I recalled.
13) Golden Girls. Wouldn't it be comforting to know that as we grow older we'll also grow warmer and funnier and we'll remain sexually active?

ReplyDeleteHappy T13
Wishing you well
I love 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 9 and 13. Um, where's your 7?
ReplyDeleteI played too :-)
I must heartily agree with most of your list, but especially Andy Griffith & Dick Van Dyke!
ReplyDeleteGrats on being the featured T13!
Wow! I didn't know I was a featured player till Faerylandmom told me! Cool!
ReplyDelete#7 is missing for no better reason than I'm a dufus. Not intentional.
OK! Interesting list... I used to love watching Friends, but I think I watched one too many reruns of the show. I lived off of Brady Bunch reruns as a kid... and that's about all I agree with on your list! I love how different we all are!
ReplyDeleteHappy TT-ing - my list is up, 13 things about our cat... Edition #5
3,4,5,8,& 11 - I'd watch them again and again.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't watch #6. I'm one of those people who just can't laugh at other people's embarrassing moments and much of I Love Lucy was just that.
Oh....great List!! My husband watches Law and Order ALL the time!! I also love the Brady's. Same with you...don't know why. It's so bad, it's good! Sex & the City was one of my all-time fav's, but I don't watch the reruns much.
ReplyDeleteThe 2 that I would add are Seinfeld. And Gilligan's Island!
This was a trip down Memory Lane for me! Brady Bunch, so campy, so fake, but would watch it over and over. I liked most of these, but I think I am one of the few people who has never watched Sex in the City. I think it's on reruns, too much time on computer now!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by- hadn't seen Dead Calm, but then I am a chicken about watching scary movies along with being in motion on the water!
I love Sex & the City and I Love Lucy. Congrats on being a featured TT13.
ReplyDeleteThe Golden Girls = best show of all time! :)
