"We have just about wrapped up watching Season One. My wife has been enjoying the show as much or more than I have. Perhaps due to her growing up in a household with three brothers giving her a higher tolerance for the boys shenanigans. "
"We are watching only one new show, which has yet to return from mid-season hiatus (now nearly as long as "summer repeat" season). While we are waiting for our show* to return (and I am waiting for FETV's airing of My Three Sons to catch up to season…"
"MY THREE SONS - SEASON FIVE: Shortly after watching all of season one on DVD, I decided to see if any of my satellite channels were airing M3S reruns. As it happens, FETV (Family Entertainment Television) is, and I was able to start watching with S5…"
"That's unfortunate. I was looking forward to hearing your comments as someone watching the show for the first time. Season Two has some good episodes if you can get past the campy bits. But then I am a die hard fan and somewhat biased. My wife has…"
"THE WILD, WILD WEST: After airing the first two episodes of the first season, the station I had been watching skipped ahead to S2 E1. How disappointing. I had been looking forward to moving from the more serious episodes to the campy ones, but after…"
"Is there any interest in Route 66 mini-reviews? I probably should have asked while I was watching Seasons One and Two, generally considered to be the strongest. I'm doing a selective watch, seeing only the highest-rated eps, and a few that caught my…"
"I was in third grade and too young to fully understand the show when I first started watching it. My parents watched it semi-regularly during the first four seasons, and we would tune in even if they didn't. Henry Blake's farewell remains a…"
"I watched M*A*S*H regularly back in the day. It ran from around the time when I started fourth grade, until the latter half of my sophomore year of college. I haven't watched it since college, so I don't know how well it would hold up. I remember…"
"They do mention the fact but, yeah, it's a more-than-fair point.
Of course, anyone with any privilege who depicts events in their life does so from a position of that privilege, because we live with that privilege. "
"I've only seen "Goodbye, Farewell and Amen" once, the night it originally aired. I started watching M*A*S*H about halfway into its run; I've seen many (not most) of the earlier episodes during that run and since. I don't know how well it holds up. I…"
"I saw Secret Mall Apartment. It was entertaining, but it inescapably was a depiction of White Privilege. Our protagonists think of themselves as performance artists and not as burglars, squatters, and lawbreakers, and (barely) acknowledge that if…"
"In what few episodes of Bonanza I watched first run, Ben had only two sons (as far as I knew), Hoss and Little Joe. Years later, I recall being surprised that there was a third, older son. A few years ago, Tracy and I watched all of Bonanza from the…"
"My family became big Laugh-In viewers for a few seasons, likely thanks to my "hip" older sisters. A couple of years ago, I introduced my wife to some select reruns. It remains funny and groundbreaking, though it does not consistently hold up, as is…"
"(In those days, things like that weren't announced; they just happened, and the viewers were left to figure it out.)
That's how it was for me when I first started reading comics. Nowadaays, you can read what's going to be happening in a given comic…"
"Ah, fascinating stuff as aways, Commander. There's a lot that I don't know about the early years of television. I remember Bonanza being a show that existed when I was little, but by the time I was old enough to pick and choose for myself what…"

Happy Birthday to the Birthday Dude!
Hope it's a good one.
I'd have got you another cake, but I haven't earned any credits since your last birthday...
(How do you earn credits anyway?)
