Yep! I watch them every evening while sitting here working :) I don't ever remember Still Standing in primetime. I must have missed that one, but I really enjoy it now.

I liked The Cosby show! I do like Reba on Lifetime and the one called Standing Still. Have you watched those at all?

Yep, I watched the Gong Show! I too love the Cosby show. I watch it every night on Nick At Night. I liked Growing Pains the first time around but seeing it again now, Kirk Cameron was well...cheesy!

Watching American Idol this season brought back the memories of The Gong Show! Did you all used to watch that? I wonder how many entertainers got their start from shows like that?

No, they had a real name. Now I'll have to bug my sister, since they were hers and I wasn't allowed to touch. Older sisters are so picky.

I liked Growing Pains, but I liked Cosby show the best. Bill Cosby is my favorite comedian. I laugh myself to tears with all his stands up, even after seeing them many many times.

Howdy Doody was before my time as well but I remember my parents talking about it. Oh those days before remote controls, DVRs, and colored television. Do I sound like my parents yet? I had to walk all the way across the room just to change the channel! ;)

I did want a Mrs. Beadsley doll though! The closest I got was Raggedy Ann and Andy. I managed to get the Barbie Dream House and Barbie Camper though. I loved anything and everything Barbie. I even had one of those nice metal Barbie lunch boxes back in Elementary school.

Have you all ever remembered liking a show and then watched it years later only to think it was such a bad show? When I was young my brothers used to demand we all watch Planet of the Apes. I watched and actually began to like it. I recently watched and though to myself...."Did I actually WATCH this show and LIKE it?"

I had a Beadsley doll, and admit it. I will not admit to the Barbie issues because I had none. Unless pulling their heads off counts.

There was a set of tiny dolls, sort of like Barbie but smaller. What the heck were they called? I remember they had long long hair.

Howdy Doody was my brothers time.. late 50s? I came into the world in 61.

Who here had or wanted a Mrs. Beadsley doll??? Don't deny it..you wanted one????

OK.. and while Family Affair was on.. the commercial for dreambus Barbie came on...and your mom didn't get that for you either..right???? Admit it..you wanted it!

Ahh, My Three Sons! I wanted to marry Robbie! I didn't watch Howdy Doody, just a tiny bit before my time. Trust me, I don't get to say that very often!

People let me tell you 'bout my best friend,
He's a warm hearted person who'll love me till the end.
People let me tell you bout my best friend,
He's a one boy cuddly toy, my up, my down, my pride and joy.

People let me tell you 'bout him he's so much fun
Whether we're talkin' man to man or whether we're talking son to son.
Cause he's my best friend.
Yes he's my best friend.


I loved this show!

We can't have run out of shows yet! Consider this a bump. Are bumps allowed on LW boards?

Courtship of Eddie's father.

I have no idea why I remembered that.

Maybe I'll make it my next answering machine message.

Not that I'd let any of you call me. Oh, wait, you already have my number.
