"This is the end of the road, Galvatron!"
No one watched quantum leap?!
We've had that out here or something very similar. I used to catch a few after the news cutting edge stuff and all that.
I preferred the English shows really as I grew up cause thats the majority of what we got served up until the late 70's. The Aussie ones were probably kept here and not released over there not sure .
Skippy the bush kangaroo was a decent show for a youngster. I also dreamed of Jennie as well as every other red blooded boy on the block.
Every English show you guys have mentioned except cracker jack dont think we got that maybe I was out and about by then?
I grew up with Porridge, Softly softly,Minder, Used to watch Cat Weasel a bit later on.The Avengers with Dianna Rigg, now were are going back into early hard on days.
Parkinson was great. So is Graeme Norton these days, very engaging at times.
Sinefield was one of the funniest things, I wouldnt swap that era for anything. Americans really shone out with that style of comedy, prior to that it was all about hanging shit on someone in most American humor which Australia and England didnt really get, not when it was on mass.
Hogans Heros was great for its time a real family show.
A show called The Invaders was fun and creepy too for its time.
America has always ruled with cartoons still does; Looney tunes no 1. Ren and Stimpy fuck me , the list goes on and on.
Monkey was magic and the english translations made it even more so.
England: Pie in the sky, Love the ambiance captured in that series the music and the soft English lighting seem to set a whole feel to country life there and the police business storyline was just a bonus.
Little Britain first few series were epic but ran thin when over in the states.
Bellbird, Homicide ,Division four, for any older Aussies out there.
Lately Blacklist. Antiques roadshow. The Aussie version of 'Wilfred' is so funny you guys got your versions balls snipped off cause of your weird ratings and not being allowed some words or total nudity. Our Wilfred was a total mongrel.
House'os is just insane, funny, but watchable.
Ive watched Downtown Abbey yeah yeah I know, should never had started.
I havent got to the latest installation yet though, as we got a local crime docufilm on thats running in the same time slot which is watchable,its called Fat Tony;
a Melbourne crime story about all the fools that are in boxes under the ground and in jail for it.
The Addams family ruled.
