I still laugh at Tom Selleck's character, Lance White, that he played on Rockford Files.

I loved Miami Vice, especially when it first came on. I had just bought a stereo/surround VCR and hooked it up to the home stereo system. We take the whole audio thing for granted now, but the change back then from listening to the crappy little speaker in the TV box was really breathtaking. And Miami Vice was a perfect show to enjoy the new technology.

Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

I didn't really watch MASH until it had been on for a while.  I was maybe 15 or 16 when I started watching it because I thought it was boring until then.

The initial version of the show with Wayne Rogers & McLean Stevenson absolutely blows the later version away.   I could never stand Loretta Swit much at all.  She was hot in the beginning but then she got older and progressively more shrill throughout the series until I was actively hoping for her to get capped.
