I've been watching the White Shadow on Hulu. A basketball show about a high school team.

Surprisingly watchable and fun but with some serious aspects. Totally missed it along the way. Kind of like Welcome Back Kotter but without all the stupidity.

The animated Batman series from the 90's. It was way ahead of its time. Kids these days have terrible cartoons.

Did you happen to catch the movie that came out in "06". Not a bad flick by my standards. Gong Li was in it. She's almost 50 years old and looking pretty damn good.

I alway's loved Sanford and Son.

I've been watching" Land of the Lost". I'm really impressed with both the special effects and the story lines. Much better than" Jurrasic Park". It's was a cinematic masterpiece that should on the same level as" DWar".

I really like the Sleestacks. As a kid they terrified me. I heard they were all famous Basketball players.

Seeing some old shows now, say around 20 years later, kind of freaks me out.

"Different Strokes" was ridiculous. "Happy Days" was total crap. "Three's Company" was stupid at best.

Kind of like watching old Sesame Street now. It's way funnier now than it used to be. The Count is hilarious. And Cookie Monster is such a jerk.

"The Jeffersons" and "Taxi" and even "Married With Children" are still great.

I liked "The White Shadow" many years ago. Would watch again if possible.

I always liked "Frasier" but would not consider that an old show.
