BTW, I kind of like the new Cubs mascot. Don't quite get the uproar.

I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

Well, 5th grade it kind of makes sense.

yes, the Love Boat/Fantasy Island combo got me through preadolescent angst.

HappyDays/L&S was on Tuesdays, IIRC. 3's Company might have followed it but I was never a huge fan of that show

Yep, Three's Company was from 9 - 9:30p on Tuesdays. I don't remember what was on at 9:30 because that was bedtime for me back then.

Good call on Soap. But I think that was only on for 2 years, or so. Maybe they rotated a bunch of failed comedies there over the years.

I thought Starsky and Hutch was CBS, just like Dukes of Hazzard.

Taxi was the 9:30 show.

Kotter on Mondays, Eight is Enough/Charlie's Angels on Wednesdays; Mork/What's Happening (hey!HEY!hey!)/Barney Miller/Soap on Thursdays

Friday was a flip back-and-forth between Incredible Hulk and Dukes of Hazzard, although one season I watched the Planet of the Apes series but that was all it lasted.

Sunday was either Disney or MTM/Rhoda/All in the Family/Alice

I watched TV pretty much every night as a kid.

Although MTM used to be on Saturdays before Newhart and Carol Burnett and I watched that until LoveBoat/Fantasy Island started around '77 or so.

That's because Murray switched to Capt. Stuebing and that was it for MTM.

I also watched MASH, the Jeffersons, WKRP and One Day at a Time. I think I even watched Angie.

I also watched an hour or 2 of reruns in the afternoon and a good 4-5 hours on Saturday morning plus basketball.

Sure, I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is, I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country and the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism.

happy days, laverne and shirley, 3's company and taxi

thats a strong lineup

Although I think Simpsons/King of the Hill/Family Guy/Futurama whatever order that was is stronger.

we watched Heehaw but I think it came on at like 5:30 on Saturdays - usually I was still doing kid stuff .

I remember Sunday nights at 6 with Wonderful World of Disney. I would have watched that with my kids if it was still on.

Hee Haw? That was every fucking Saturday at 7 p.m. It was about the only thing my Granddaddy watched besides the news and a ballgame (which he didn't really watch as much as have on and listened while he dozed off).

Shit, we hardly ever missed Hee Haw.

You're right, it probably came on at 5:30 because my grandpappy was usually in bed by 7.

Later in life, he became an avid Baywatch viewer...
