I used to get a kick out of Cheer's. That whole cast was funny. WKRP In Cincinnati. Especially when Less Nesman thought turkeys could fly. Newhart was about the best comedian but Larry, Daryl and Daryl helped make that series hilarious. Just my opinion.

I watched SGT York on Tubi last night. Had not seen it in awhile. Mutual of Omaha's wild kingdom was popular in our house. Never have bought any insurance from them. I also liked Gunsmoke.

No one, I mean no one could pull off a more convincing complex telephone conversation than Bob Newhart. He did it so well that I couldn't tell that there was never anyone on the other end of the line. That phone wasn't even plugged in. He did it so well that it made you figure out in your own mind what the other side of the conversation was supposed to be. I'd say that was when he was at his best. His droll, emotionless delivery killed me too. His material carried the water, not his antics.
Yes! Bob Newhart is one of the best comedians ever.

I must be getting old and crotchety...laugh tracks really turn me off. If the writing is bad enough I need to be told when to laugh, it's not very funny. That's why I enjoy shows like Northern Exposure and Modern Family.
My wife will watch all these new shows...I just go to the shop.

My husband sounds a lot like you. He gets easily bored and frustrated with entertainment in general. We both avoid anything new and mainstream because it all gets raunchy and inappropriate. Very rare to find anything clean, especially in comedy.

Before the TV show with Bob Newhart he was a standup comedian. He came out with at least 2 LP records. I did have the records, but have no idea what happened to them. The Best one was "The Buttoned Down Mind of Bob New Hart". That was in the early 1960's. Very funny guy.
I have been watching the series of "Adam-12", "Daniel Boone" and "The Lone Ranger". They are on Dish Network, channel 82. I can't stand to watch any of the new stuff that is on. It is all screaming, shouting, stupid and makes me want to puke. AND... the commercials are all the same way.

When this was released, it was such a big deal to me and my brother. There are no safe role models or characters for kids like this anymore. I’m still alert to dangers of drugs, crime, and strangers to this day

Watched about 10 minutes of a new show “Found” last night just more SJW woke garbage. When they said the Government stealing their SS money and keeping it I turned the channel. Here illegally, costing us billions, providing the fake SS numbers to begin with and they make them into the victims.

Oh that’s disappointing! A buddy at work told me it’s about werewolves and vampires!
