New to me because I don't have cable TV is ME TV.It is all the old programs like Perry Mason,The Untouchables,Gunsmoke,12 O'clock high,Combat,etc.Seems someone could buy all that cheap and then sell it for ad money.
Yep-one of those why didn't I think of that.
While some of those old shows are cool to remember, sometimes when we see them now they are not as enjoyable to watch as we thought they would be. For example, a few years ago one of the channels started running 77 Sunset Strip and I was really excited because it was one of my favs, especially seeing Kookies T on there. They ran it at about 1 am, and I stayed up to watch the first few episodes and then I couldn't take the dumb plots or lousy acting anymore, so I quit watching it. I guess it was high tech programming for the time, but pretty dated now.
Another one is the Three Stooges. I was addicted as a kid, watching every day, but now I wonder what the attraction was. Our tastes change as we age, probably.

I agree but there are some classics. Perry Mason and Gunsmoke come to mind and we still watch Andy Griffith.
I loved "Combat" with Vic Morrow - most of them in B&W but a few color episodes. Still enjoy them. Have to agree with Don on 77 Sunset Strip - it's well, just corny and bad acting all the way around...
Like Mission Impossible and Perry Mason too..
Watched some episodes of "Gunsmoke" recently.....still an excellent show, well written and acted.
The Rifleman has been on Sunday mornings. Still pretty good. BUT, it wasn't on last Sunday. :( What happened?
Here in Roch,NY it is a TV channel that is all the old stuff and nothing else.
Well my new addiction is 12 o'clock high in color!!!. Oh man in the middle of the night.I got to get some sleep or start working over nites to get some work done on my projects.Gezzzz
