    MINIMUS- My wife loved watching X-files, Star trek series, and the Simpson's . Over the years I enjoyed watching the Johnny Carson Show, Get Smart, at times the David Letterman Show , anything with Rodney Dangerfield ( funny as hell ). As a child growing up watched Bonanza, Lost in Space ( warning Will Robinson ! ) , Gilligan's Island, I Dream of Jeannie . Lots of sit-coms, Sanford and Son, All in the Family, Mash, even Laugh-In was funny with the old man and Ruth Buzzi sitting on the park bench ! I think T.V. was much more entertaining then ! Peace out, Mr. Flipper

    james_woods recommends:

    Have Gun, Will Travel
    Amen to that.

    I know a magic worker spiritual teacher who recommends "Have Gun, Will Travel" as a way of understanding how good, upstanding people can possibly hex other people.

    Oh, and –

    • The Addams Family
    • Batman
    • Star Trek (up through Deep Space Nine)
    • Most PBS documentaries
    • Dark Shadows, for about a year
    • The Waltons
    • Maya, a drama set in India starring two abandoned/orphaned teenage boys (one American, one Indian) and an elephant; lasted less than a year. I was, what, twelve?
    • The Muppet Show
