    Ah, so, everyone is an, how do I say this, ah so? What? Too soon? And no ah so watched SNL's 40th anniversary show? Oh no, you degenerate, elitist, ah so's were watching and discussing Laugh In? Ah so-ish indeed! Screw! You're not worthy of my stage presence or lyrical genius.

    listen here, elitist.....without laugh-in, there's no SNL....slow down the rock star lifestyle and stop to smell the roses.

    Or the floral scented kitty litter.

    Sock it to me!

    It's funny how Rowan and Martin drinking / smoking on-stage was considered the norm.

    What a sign of the times. That'd be called racist these days...I think.

    Loved Sanford & Son though (much like I did Chico and the Man!).

    Redd used to buy coke from my old boss' ex - said he could be asshole too, but who knows. We're talking the 80's here =)

    Just think of all the quality Tv we had.
    The Jeffersons
    All in the Family
    Welcome back Kotter
    Threes Company
    Happy Days/L&S
    Soap
    Friday's (anyone remember this)
    Mel's Diner
    Good Times

    I could go on and on

    Actually,I would say without Second City there is no Laugh In.

    While I enjoy many of those (dont recall Friday's) on re-runs I think only the comedic shows were better previously. Probably you agree as well since they are what you listed when you looked back at shows you loved from the past. There are exceptions to that statement I am sure but I think shows like Sanford & Son, All in The Family, and the Jeffersons stand the test of time because shit that is hysterical stays hysterical. Shit that is action packed or futuristic or super dramatic tends to change.

    True true, but oh that whole era!

    All in the Family is my penultimate (MASH too). They had a way of making me laugh and then tear up (and I HATE tender moments in comedies!).
  • rr165892rr165892 Posts: 5,697
    Oh shit.I forgot about Mash and of course The Odd Couple.
  • rr165892rr165892 Posts: 5,697
    And Taxi then Cheers.That led to the Seinfeld era.
  • hedonisthedonist Posts: 24,524
    Ah...Father Jim and Coach. Along with Archie Bunker, two of the best characters created!

    Let's not forget ALF

    two things:

    like BB, I am now on double secret probation.

    secondly, a shout out to ensemble comedies: taxi, barney miller, WKRP.....all kinda the same, but different.

    OK.....one more....Friday's was awesome.....michael richards as the stoned pharmacist :lol:

    You two better be careful. No bannings of either of you, dammit! (if that's what you're referring to).

    Two things from me:

    First, the hell was Friday's?

    And second to BB...ALF?? =)

    Anything you lose from being honest
    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.
