What show from your childhood would you love to bring back?
Define childhood.
Well, in all honest, Mr. Rogers' Neighbourhood. Bring it back on DVD, on the television as reruns, but bring it back. It's a great show for kids.
(This 7-minute clip is when Mr. Rogers went to the US Senate to defend PDF funding)
But I suspect that's not what was meant.
K let's see....
Fraggle Rock was awesome. And weird.
The dancing starts at 2:05 wtf.
The early years of the Simpsons were golden, especially for a pre-teen's sense of humour.
From a fandom perspective, Star Trek: TNG was my first real introduction to science fiction. It was a good intro imo because it was so positive and a forward-looking view of humanity. I really miss Gene Roddenberry and his vision.
M*A*S*H was always on and everywhere, and even though I didn't get the political commentary, the jokes were still accessible to a six-year-old. I think I imprinted on Hawkeye at the age of 3. (As an aside, if you have the chance, read the book by "Richard Hooker" (also called MASH) - it's a fascinating snapshot on the time period.
Roseanne was interesting as my early exposure to it made the concept of having a working class family on television no big deal (although it was, back in the day.)
What about you guys?
