Since we watched those shows originally in black and white, it never bothers me for them not to be in color. I still like the old shows much better than new ones.

The Munsters, Batman & Robin, The Addams Family. Yup, all in black & white. Still fascinating. I Love Lucy is the best hands down.

What was funny then, is still funny now:wah:. That is why i don't understand most of the so called comedies of today, are just not funny.

They are really dumb and all focused on sex. Boring. Not that sex is boring mind you, but it's constantly shoved down our throats. We actually ended up watching Leave it to Beaver, lol.

And Mash is always a goodie in reruns. I love when Hawkeye & BJ play pranks on Charles & Margaret:wah: and get it in return.

Probably should be a different thread but.... what about old commercials that still make you giggle?

We had a yellow pages ad where a dude is describing a robber to a police sketch artist. The artist is intensely sketching and nodding as the poor man, Colin Foo, gives full details about his eyes and such then says "ok, I think I've got it! Is this the man??" and he shows a stick figure holding a gun. Foo stands up and points, yelling "You not a artist... You can't draw!"

Cut to the yellow pages, art school entries.

Rowen and Martin were magnificent and Goldie Hawn was, undeniably, sexy - all in all it was very interesting, but stupid!

You seem to be doing everything possible to keep it from becoming boring.
