I'm sure there are dozens more I'm forgetting.

reply

Oh my god, Dewey! Your list trumps the OP's, which was impressive enough.

Do you have a lot of these on DVD? With the old ones, I probably saw all of the episodes, but can't be sure.

Were you a Northern Exposure fan? I'd have pegged you for one.

reply

I wouldn't say trumps at all. I think a lot of people have seen many.

Back in the day we didn't have DVD or streaming so all you had was TV.
There are tons of shows that only ran for a year.
It's so hard to remember everything.

I only own about 10 DVD's or so. Not many at all.
I'm sure you've seen more than what you think you did.

I remember the show but never watched it. From what I know about it the people that did watch it loved it.

reply

No DVDs or streaming? Come on, you don't expect me to believe that. Pull my other finger.

True, lots of shows, many with short runs. The other day I saw this one on Trending. Never heard of it.

Probably I saw a lot of shows all the way through. Unlikely I missed any episodes of Twilight Zone, or the Outer Limits. Or a lot of others.

I think you'd like Northern Exposure. Great characters, funny, whacky.

reply

Yeah, and they had these things called "cords" and they were attached to phones.
And the phones were just plain dumb!

I have never heard of that show. It looks good.

I'm sure there are more you've seen. Just in the last half hour I've thought of a dozen more.
Maybe someday I can check it out.

reply

No. Cords attached to phones? Go on with you. Next thing you know, you're going to try to tell me there was a time when people had to get up and manually turn the channels on their TVs. It's all fake news, and I'm not buying it for a second. I'm informed, I watch YouTube, you know!

I'm sure there are a lot I really did see every episode of every season, I'm just not sure of a lot of them.

I think it's straight up your alley. Give one episode a shot and see what you think.

reply

impressive list. Robert Mandan from Soap died yesterday.

reply

All the list means is even back then I didn't have a life.
Too much time in front of the TV.
Wonder if we would have changed that in our lives if we know now what we know?

I hadn't heard that. I'm trying to remember but I don't ever remember seeing
him in anything else other than Soap. Maybe the Love Boat.

reply

The Blacklist
NCIs
Person of Interest
Timeless
The Good Doctor

reply

Those lists are incredible, especially godewey and happipuppi13's. I've never even heard of some of those shows. I'm more in Catbookss's camp. I've probably seen Giligan's Island and Happy Days the whole way through but I'm not certain about it

... I can't think of them all, and most of the stuff I did not mention I do not watch at all. I don't think I've ever seen a Hogan's Heroes or Beverly Hillbilliies all the way through.

reply

godewey ,well you sure did beat my list, wow! Like what you may have left out,
there's some 1 Season wonders I 'might' have seenall the shos of, but couldn't say for sure now.

One current show I'm close to seeing every one of is PBS's , "Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood". Why? I find it an amusing show and of course I grew up with Mr. Rogers too. There's also just moments in it that are unintentionally funny too. Right now it's bordering on 100 shows and I've seen over 80 of them. (New ones coming out next month.)

I wanted to include many of the Sid & Marty Kroftt shows I watched on Saturday mornings but again, not 100% on if I've seen them all.
