Old shows that you enjoy?

We have a lot of threads about new media, but I don't remember a thread specifically about old media. Sure, old shows get mentioned every now and then, but a thread only about them?

Here goes...
I'm bringing this up because I just learned "Man From Atlantis" is available on disk and ordered it. I really enjoyed this show even when it went completely off the rails, in later episodes.


"Kolchak: The Night Stalker" - It started out as TV movies and then became a series, with that campy '70s comedy charm. Bought this on DVD, some years back, and it's due for a nother rewatch. Kolchak is an investigative reporter who bumbles his way into discovering Vampires, werewolves, aliens, you name it. Of course no one believes him.


"UFO" - Gerry and Sylvia Anderson, of "Thunderbirds" and "Captain Scarlet" fame, finally do live action. Some sets might look a little familiar, as they were cannibalized and later used in "Space: 1999." Quite notably, given the time, the cast was far from uniformly pasty in complexion.


That's just a few and I have many more gems from my childhood. What about y'all?

All great stuff. I didn't know that "Man From U.N.C.L.E." was available on disk. I'll have to look into it. Maybe check for "The Avengers" (not the crappy Canadian sequel series) as well.

 



Fantasy Island, Classic Doctor Who, The Addams Family, Columbo, Perry Mason, I Love Lucy, The Twilight Zone, I'm sure I'll think of more later.
Watched them all, in their time. "The Addams Family" (and the later one season attempt at a reboot) are both currently available on Tubi, I believe. I was rather shocked to find out that the set was actually pink, because of how it showed up in black & while.
