fav old childhood tv show?

Sign in to disble this ad
they are playing The Incredible Hulk and 6 million dollar man back to back over here.....these were 2 of my all time favs

i watched an episode of the hulk yesterday and Rick Springfield was in as a cop martial artist, there was a classic scene where he was surrounded by 10 guys and he took them all out one by one with cheezy moves and throws....magic stuff..lol

i saw a 6 million dollar man episode and Flip Wilson starred as some leader from Africa who had a brain inplant and was being controlled by the bad guys...lol

oh i also need to mention Steve Austin going toe to toe with Big Foot with a controlling brain inplant, but Big Foot had more power then him and pulled a power grid down and crushed steves legs, steve was dieing but Jaime the bionic woman came to the rescue

great stuff

Wasnt allowed to watch TV as a child! Was forced to play outside and use my brain! Imagine that!

I still dont own a TV...

When i was allowed to watch TV i think "Columbo" was my favorite show...(we only had 2 channels so i didnt have much choice mind you!)

Dude, since I'm 3 years younger than you, A team and Night Rider not so much, but the others, hell yeah. I'd actually half forgotten American Gladiators, that was one of the coolest shows ever! Especially when the contestants had to get through the course while getting shot at with a tennis ball cannon, hellz yeah.

But also thought I'd add:
Pete & Pete
Two Stupid Dogs
Pirates of the Dark Water
Nickelodeon GUTS
Inspector Gadget
All the old action Hannah Barbara cartoons
Zorro (the old black and white show and the 90's reboot)
and Are You Afraid of the Dark?

I'm right with you. Star Blazers was it for me. I remember taking white t-shirts and drawing the arrow and lines on them with markers.
