some of these shows i watched in reruns more the original time
I scored 66%. There should have been a fourth choice "Turned off the TV and went outside/read a book.
Umph. No wonder that was the year I cut way back on my TV watching. Things really took a nose dive in the late 70s, didn't they?
I was in love with Donny Ismond and the cute brown haired guy from Emergency so I watched those and I never missed an episode of The Waltons.
I would like to see Me TV get any of the Pink Panther cartoons. I believe Little House is overdone, but that may be because it has made the rounds on cable and we cut that cord last year.
