Well, it's so hard to pin down the Power Rangers. They've had, what, eleven iterations now?

About 10 I counted on the IMDB me watching the show for only 3.

I watched only the original, and part of the second coming.

But from that list, I'd have to go with Knight Rider. Hasselhoff was da bomb yo.

I think Masters of the Universe was my favorite show when I was really little. Saved by the Bell was my favorite show as a pre-teen. After that, MST3K all the way.

And speaking of which, what about the cartoons? Masters of the Universe? Thundercats? GI Joe? Ninja Turtles? Voltron? Transformers?

So, Zion...who's your fav? Mike or Joel?


I don't really have a preference. I like them both for different reasons. Everything from season 2 on was great.

(I already voted for KR so I can't vote for MST3K)

My Projects:
[Holiday Special Hybrid DVD v2]
[X0 Project]
[Backstroke of the West DVD]
[ROTS Theatrical DVD]

Well, I picked Dukes of Hazzard. It was my fav when I was little on reruns...but my real favorite is The X-Files. I first started watching that as a teenager, so I still considered myself to be "growing up" in a way, and I loooooovvvvvve that show. Always have.

On Power Rangers...one of my best friends used to watch the first incarnation of the show EVERY day after school. Was well addicted. So I saw it, but only mildly enjoyed the corniness. It was fun to watch after school tho. Boring horrible day at school, THEN waste part of your free afternoon watching Power Rangers!

The Power Rangers are winning? The Apocalypse is truly near.

Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.
Han Solo: I'm a nice man.

Although I live in the US now, I grew up in the UK so I'm almost obliged to give the UK vote to Doctor Who. Wobbly sets. Wobbly monsters. Wobbly acting. Wobbly everything actually. And if we're talking which generation - Tom Baker.
where have i been all this time ?

For me it was Star Trek TNG, I didn't see TOS until later and I can't remember a time when it wasn't the one show I couldn't miss an episode of, even the bad ones. I had all the toys and action figures and even a Uniform my great aunt got me for Christmas.  I think a part of me died when it left TV.

Stargate SG-1 was my #1 favourite live-action TV show growing up as a kid. I no longer care for it anymore, though.

I seem to recall a time when Chips was fairly riveting...but then there were so many others as well...

We didn't have TV when I was growing up. We played with sticks and were thankful for it.

"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won’t last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you’ll be able to project it on a 20’ by 40’ screen with perfect quality. I think it’s the director’s prerogative, not the studio’s to go back and reinvent a movie." - George Lucas

'Round The Bend'

It was a late 80s satirical English children's show about a Crocodile and a rat who lived in a sh*t smelling sewer and broadcast wee and bum based spoof cartoons. Quite surprising it was ever broadcast really.

Wee-man and the Masters of the Looniverse

Botman

Thunderpants vs Bumrah

 I like it! You could never have gotten away with that on tv in the U.S. back then. Not too surprised to see that Spitting Image was involved.
