Another Cheesy Topic: Favorite 80's TV show!
Ya, it's late, i'm stressing over a paper that's due, so here's a cheesy topic to start up convo.
Mine choice is a toss-up between the A-Team and Knight Rider |
There is no debate...... Alf.
|
No doubt about it......The Dukes of Hazzard......(yeah I know it started in the 70s but it was at its peak around 80-81!!!)
|
The Dukes of Hazzard, A-Team, Alf, The greatest american hero
|
Facts of Life
The Cosby's Charles in Charge A team Alf dang I am un class and can barely think of any,lol DGPhoney |
Must See Thursdays...
The Cosby Show Family Ties Cheers |
Personally, I adored the Facts of Life, Family Ties, and The Cosby Show.
Does anyone remember a show called "Rags to Riches". My brother swears I was addicted to it way back when, but I hardly remember anything about it. I think it was four orphaned girls living with a rich man, but I could be just adding a few girls to the movie 'Annie', who knows! ;) |
Dang those are all good shows....but I also was way deep into Soap Opera's too like "One Life to Live" and "All My Children"
But my all time favorite shows of the 80's were: The Wonder Years Quantum Leap |

Alf
B.J. and the Bear Dukes Dallas Tour of Duty (damn that was a good show) Sanford and Son. (I learned to drive on a truck just like that 2 ton that fred drove around the junkyard. Threes Company. (Jack was gay. I dont care what anyone says.) The Gong Show Family Fued Quincy Hunter |
Yes, Hunter!! I loved that show!
|
Though it began in the late '70s, it went on until the mid-80s, so I think it counts...THREE'S COMPANY!
I was also a huge fan of Moonlighting, with Bruce Willis (when he had hair) and Cybill Shepard. Cybill's character "Madeline 'Maddie' Hayes" shaped my life--she was so intelligent, witty, and classy. :) Jen |
hmmm...
Alf
A-Team (I pity the fool who dont like Mr. T) Webster Mr. Belvadeer (sp?) Love Boat Cosby Show Silver Spoons |
Oh, I almost forgot -- I used to LOVE Miami Vice.
|
Yes!

Punky Brewster (I even had an outfit like her when I was 6!) Rags to Riches Family Ties Growing Pains Alf Pinwheel (a Nickelodeon CLASSIC) |

Three's Company was AWESOME....I still watch it on Nick At Nite. Do Love Boat and Fantasy Island count as 80s shows? I thought they were 70s shows but I loved them.....watched every Sat. night.
Just as a side note, my hubby and I chaperoned prom 2 years ago and one of his golfers was wearing this white tux and white shoes. I went up to him teasingly and said "Well, hello there Mr. Roarke." He had NO IDEA what I was talking about!!!!!! I was like, "Mr. Roarke, you know, Fantasy Island???" He said "Well I wasn't really born then....." I wanted to smack his rotten pimply little teenaged face!!!! LOL |
Erika's post brings to mind this Halloween when a little boy with REALLY GREAT Ace Frehley make-up (to those of you who are wondering who the hell Ace Frehley is, he played guitar in the group Kiss. You know Kiss, Gene Simmons with the long tongue spitting blood? Anyhoo...) came up to our door. I said, "Wow, that is a great Ace Frehley costume." and the little boy said that everyone was telling him that. Then he paused and said, "Well, actually, just the old people" :eek:
Sorry to bust in on this thread, please continue... |
Killarney, that kid would have gotten a tube of Ben Gay thrown in his bag, not candy!!! (Sorry, sonny, it's all we old people have to offer!!!!!)
I had a ten year old boy come through dressed like a pimp....fur coat, fedora, big gold chain with $ on it and all.....I told him he was the youngest pimp I ever saw and he flashed me this grin and said, "Why thank you!" Future studmuffin... |
Soap - by far the funniest TV show of the late 70s/80s. I remember one New Years Eve, Comedy Central had the Soap-athon, and it was AWESOME!!
I'm also big on Three's Company and Knotts Landing! |
I absolutely LOVED the Love Boat. That was such a great show! And Punky Brewster, too-I totally wanted to be her when i was little.:D
|
I thought Taxi was one of the best sitcoms of the 80's.
Does anyone remember a show called 21 Jumpstreet? |
Hey KABM they are showing re-runs of Tour of Duty I think on TNT or USA in the afternoon. I loved that show also
my favs 1. Magnum PI (ohhhh Tom!) 2. simon and simon 3. the A-team 4. knight rider 5 . Dallas 6. Fantasy Island 7. Chips 8. Baretta 9. Starsky and Hutch oh I could go on forever |
My favorite was Dynasty, by far!
Joan Collins is STILL doing theatre here in the UK - damn she's in good shape too, with or without the shoulder pads! Does anybody remember Falcon Crest, with Jane Wyman (I think she is Ronald Reagan's ex-wife)?? |
oh yes-Falcon Crest and Lorenzo Lamas-kind of a hottie though not so much now. Jane Wyman was married to RR-you are correct! BTW did you get my PM?
|
