What’s your favorite TV show…of all time?

[dawgie34203]

For me, the black & white episodes of “The Andy Griffith Show” cannot be beat. I’ve seen every episode many, many times, and I still laugh at every one!

 

[jacot23]

I’d have to agree with you.

Honorable mentions:

• Dukes of Hazzard (hey I was young and impressionable in the early 80’s)
• Macgyver(the original one, though the newer one ain’t bad)
• Star Trek

Of course the cowboy in me loved Hell on Wheels (AMC) and I’ve watched it a lot.

Currently streaming Person of interest and I’m certain I’ll watch it several times over the rest of my life.
