What were some of your favorite tv shows when you were a teenager. Or maybe they weren't your favorites, but your parents always had them on..
I remember As The World Turns when my mom would watch it and my dad watching Night Court at night. A couple of my favorites were Quantum Leap, MacGuver, & The Dukes of Hazzard

Oh I LOVED Quantum Leap!
My Mom was also an As the World Turns fan....also Guiding Light. She stopped watching after she started working when I entered high school. She didn't get "hooked" again when she became disabled 5 yrs ago.
I can't remember very many shows that I loved to watch on my own, Basically, my parents controlled the TV. My Dad used to watch Hee Haw, the Porter Wagner Show and stuff like that on Saturday night. We weren't normally allowed much TV on school nights.
Maybe someone else will mention some and jog my memory! ;-)
I remember my parents letting me stay up to watch the the Bionic Man. I thought that was so "cool". I also remeber watching the Donnie And Marie Osmond show....my kids would crack up to watch that now
Lassie, Mr. Ed, Dick Van Dyke Show, I Love Lucy, Red Skelton Show, Honeymooners, Search for Tomorrow, Andy Griffith Show, My Favorite Martian, The Mod Squad, Archie Bunker Show, The Jeffersons, Candid Camera, What's my Line?, The Dating Game, The Match Game, Password, Three's Company, The Newlywed Game. I'll add more as I think of them.
I was a kid during the early days of television....
Howdy Doody, The Magic Cottage, ....On Saturdays there were the westerns.. Hoppy, Roy and Gene....
Sunday nights ....Ed Sullivan...
Later on there was Red Skelton Jackie Gleason, and Perry Como
And then Gunsmoke... and then DALLAS..
TV's were very expensive and small screens!...
Just in case you are wondering,, I'm 64 *s*
