I was watching the tube the other day, and I realized that a lot of today's shows just don't seem to match the quality of some of my favorite shows that have been discontinued. Maybe it was because these shows were a lot cooler when I was 5 or 10, I really don't know, but I find myself missing a lot of old (relatively old) TV programs that don't come on anymore.

What are some of your favorite shows that you wish were still running? I'll start off with my list:

Seinfeld
Wings
The Wonder Years
Doogie Howser(sp?)
MacGyver
Highlander (okay, so highlander wasn't that great, but it was still cool to see a guy running round with a katana in the 20th century )
Babylon 5(got pretty good in the last two or three seasons)
Animaniacs
Star Trek:TNG

That's all I can think of at the moment...

Airwolf...I remember when I was around 5 I was playing with a model helicopter like the one on the show, and broke it. It was my older brothers...

Aaah, good times.

I don't know... I think BILL COSBY tries WAYtoo hard to be funny, and somewhere in doing that he loses the whole COMEDY aspect of the show.
