It worked. <BR/><BR/>kristi- Welcome! And we have the first two seasons too, it's fun to see how the characters developed. Somehow we skipped the third season, although we had it from Netflix for a while.

Hard to believe it was "mainstream" TV once upon a time: seems way too cultured, somehow. <BR/><BR/>I remember reading in one of the "teen" magazines in about '91 that the PERFECT man would be a combination of Ed and Chris. I agree!<BR/><BR/>I've never owned my own TV (have lived with some who had them, but no longer) but I would walk to friend's houses to watch that show! Hmmm, maybe Netflix can hook us up later! (still no TV, but we can do DVD's on the laptop!)<BR/>Fun memories....gtrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09151092740238665849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10304963.post-1163819498618189092006-11-17T21:11:00.000-06:002006-11-17T21:11:00.000-06:00pablo- if I didn't assert myself once in a while, ...pablo- if I didn't assert myself once in a while, the kids would control the TV 24/7, mostly with video games. <BR/><BR/>madcap- M*A*S*H was so good! I even had a crush on Alan Alda for a while...I would get hooked again, if it were on network TV (we don't get satellite or cable)<BR/><BR/>robin andrea-We do Netflix too, but have to balance "adult" shows with "kid" shows. I'll have to check out Six Feet Under though. <BR/><BR/>FC- We do stay mostly away from network TV, thanks to having an old fashioned antenna connection. The only shows we regularly watch are Red Green and Monty Python on our local PBS affiliate. I'll have to check out yours and Pablo's recommendations, since we do get Netflix.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07879771115420282834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10304963.post-1163818389424464962006-11-17T20:53:00.000-06:002006-11-17T20:53:00.000-06:00I've never seen Northern Exposure, but I remember ...I've never seen Northern Exposure, but I remember my folks liked it when it was current.<BR/><BR/>When the kids were little we mostly stayed away from network tv and hence I never saw an episode of Seinfeld when it was current, but I like the reruns now.<BR/><BR/>Pablo's pick is a funny show too. I really liked a BBC series called Hamish Macbeth. It was set in Scotland with quirky characters and offbeat plots. Neat show. I bet Netflix has it too.R.Powershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04905593499136090763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10304963.post-1163809611980340562006-11-17T18:26:00.000-06:002006-11-17T18:26:00.000-06:00Roger and I watched Northern Exposure when it was ...Roger and I watched Northern Exposure when it was first broadcast. Quite a wonderful bunch of characters and great story-telling. We just joined NetFlix, and have started to watch Six Feet Under, a show that was on HBO for five seasons. It's what we're going to be watching on those long winter nights.robin andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06386655587963143782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10304963.post-1163779532743121712006-11-17T10:05:00.000-06:002006-11-17T10:05:00.000-06:00M*A*S*H.

There are many programs people rave about that I've never seen, and there would probably be even more if the kids hadn't come along and began their own TV rituals.<BR/><BR/>Still, the British version of The Office has to be the best thing ever on television.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
