    Nanny and the Professor. Another 60s show I haven't seen in ages.

    The theme song (0.5 mb). Very 60s sounding. :) Reminds me of tunes by The Association and The Cowsills.

    I miss the Classic Nickelodeon shows. Some are still aired on select channels, but many have disappeared. Shows like Sharon, Lois, & Bram's Elephant Show, Littl' Bits, Maya the Bee, David the Gnome, The Noozles, Wild & Crazy Kids, etc.

    Who remembers - "My Mother the Car" with Jerry Van Dyke.
    How can you beat a show like this - his dead mother is reinCARnated into a dilapidated 1928 Porter that he purchases. The car would only talk to Dave. Me thinks he had a mother complex...
    This must have been the worse sitcom ever, and I wonder why?

    I remember My Mother the Car, I used to watch that show. How about that lousy show William Shatner stared in after Star Trek, TJ Hooker?

    TJ Hooker. :) Still not as bad as that 'Promise' margarine commercial he did.

    My Mother the Car. That's an old one. They never went ahead with the spin-off about a dead aunt who returns as an Edsel called 'Auntie Freeze". :)

    Has anyone mentioned Land of the Giants? A real CHEEZEE special effects show in the 60's/70's.

    Don't remember that one. There was one called 'Automan' in the 80s that was really pathetic. About some dude like superman with lights in his costume that would drive a really fast car.

    I think there was one called 'Man from Atlantis' back in the 80s. No fast cars. Only a dude who could swim really fast. :)

    Looks like TVLand is bringing back That Girl.

    Man, could Marlo Thomas talk her head off. They should have called it 'That Mouth'. :)

    They didn't even need her boyfriend, Donald. They could have had a manikin sitting on that sofa and it wouldn't have made any difference.

    I sure do remember Land of the Giants. I didn't really like too much but for some reason I had to watch it every week to see what happens to them in each "CHEEZEE" episode.

    ...or maybe in her past lives she accumulated too much bad CARma ...

    Sorry. :rolleyes:

    I agree on Green Hornet, you've got to be the coolest when your chauffeur is Bruce Lee.

    I miss:

    Benny Hill
    Jackie Gleason (the variety show, not The Honeymooners)
    Mr. Wizard
    Mission Impossible
    Johnny Carson
    The Alfred Hitchcock Hour
    The Little Rascals
    You Bet Your Life (with Groucho Marx. Man, the stuff they snuck by the censors)
    Kung Fu (well, some of the shows)
    What's My Line
