Many favourites from my youth and childhood but none bring back so many vivid memories as the one below. I can see me sat by the fire after school, my brother on the sofa and can hear my mum in the kitchen making the tea waiting for my old man to come home from work. As I get older a tear wells in my eye when I hear it.....

Though the one above wins for emotion and nostalgia it's not really up there with the classics. For me the Fall Guy wins every time. They've updated the lyrics for the new version in the movie just released criminally dropping the seminal "but I taught ladies plenty" line....

Heather Thomas as Jody was hot!
Lee Majors was with Farah Fawcett, missed that line at the start.
They both cameo in the new film apparently.
Hadn't realised farah fawcett died so young till I read earlier. Anal cancer ffs. :-\
Lee Majors was a stud at that time and 6 million dollar man was huge TV show.Quote:

Loved the original X Men will watch the new one when it is all out.
Have to admit to nerding out on original X men as well ;D. Also Beast Wars. I liked Gambit. They were supposed to do another movie in the MCU with him as lead, but nothing materialized. I still see guys today fawn over the derriere on an animated 'Rouge' :-X
that has all but gone in the new series, rogue is also very tanned compared to the originalQuote:

Last time I used "don't make me angry, you wouldn't like me when I'm angry" at work it emptied the room ;D.Quote:

Ha classic. Last time I was crashed out sick as a dog binging on Metv classic reruns I thought, did they ever really leave the station house ???. Cannot recall a single scene outside of the main office set and cells ;D. Great characters too.Quote:
