So I was watching Saved By the Bell last night

Unread post

Why was I watching Saved by the Bell? Because it brought me back to my childhood and good times. Just the song "When I wake up in the morning... (you know the rest).

What is your favorite 80's television show and why? Here are a couple of mine:

Dallas, Dynasty, Knots Landing, Falcon Crest. Why? Because my mom and I used to watch it together.
Thunderbirds. Why? Reminded me of when I got home from primary school, I would sit in front of the telly and eat bread and peanut butter. :wink:

Thinking back I'll say my favorites were Wild Kingdom with Marlin Perkins, Star Trek (which isn't an 80s show per se but is eternal), 60 Minutes which has what I consider to be the best introductory setup with the ticking stopwatch, and Wiseguy, an undercover cop drama. These are the shows that most held my interest.

I think you already named it for me. Saved by the Bell was the show of all shows for me during that time period. I was just getting ready to enter high school myself, and couldn't help but compare the actual experience when I finally got there to what I saw on Saved by the Bell. Naturally, I was disappointed!!
