Thanks for the posts. Yes " Good Times " was a interesting show and was I believe a spin-off of " Maude " which was not bad either. And of course Rod Sterling had good shows, a little off-beat tho but that was what made them good.

Lol, Bee Arthur was great!!

Other T.V. westerns were Cheyenne, Broken Arrow, Sugarfoot, Yancey Derringer and the Range Rider and Judge Roy Bean just to think of a few.

Thanks for the updates. I liked Bea Arthur in "Maude " however I didn't see many of the " Golden Girls " shows. The shift that I was on at the time interfered with my TV viewing  lol.

There were a lot of Westerns out there at one time. Pat Boone returned to TV in a show called " Heck Ramsey " but it didn't last too long.

Or do you mean Richard Boone?

And speaking of Richard Boone...does anyone remember what TV show he starred in before Have Gun Will Travel?  I do! I do! [raises hand]  It was a doctor show called (ta-daa) Medic.  Every episode began with a closeup of his mug, wherein he is stating "My name is Conrad Steiner."

Thanks for the info Javan64. I got confused there as I had heard Pat on the radio earlier today and got him mixed up with Richard ( I'm confused often  lol ). Also I had never seen the first show Richard Boone starred in, I'm sure some of the other visitors to this thread will remember tho. 

Comedy: "All in the Family" was hilarious.

Thanks for the post 1Pawndown. Yes I liked " All In The Family " as well, Caroll O'Connor was certainly the right guy to play Archie. Then they created the spin-off series called " The Jeffersons " which was not bad either. Of course TV Producers were able to use the spin-off idea quite a few times over the years.  

gilligan's island,it's maryanne

Yes Gilligan's Island was funny, I also liked The Beverly Hillbillies, Green Acres, Andy Griffith, Barney Miller, The Munsters, The Addams Family etc etc.    

I dearly love Don Knott's character on Andy Griffith, Barney Fife.  As an aside, I've seen some threads here which contain thousands of posts!  Perhaps it is time to "nip it in the bud!"

As for westerns "Alias Smith and Jones"  It was my first favorite show.....

Actually, my favorite western is a new show, Justified.  Gotta love Harlan County, Kentucky!

Thanks for the recent posts. Yes I also loved Don Knotts on " Andy Griffith ", that show was not the same after Don left ( as did Floyd the Barber ). Mind you after " The Ropers " show was spun off from " Three's Company " Don had some success there when he came in as the new Landlord.

Somehow I missed " Alias Smith & Jones ", possibly as I used to do a lot of shift-work. And as I don't have cable TV anymore I'm not up to date on the newer shows.

The Rogues on BBC

And speaking of Brits, how can we forget Monty Python or Benny HIll?

and of course Davve Allen

Yes, I loved Benny Hill !!!!! I had to sneak and watch it!!!!!!

Thanks for the updates. I'm also a fan of Benny Hill, I've got several of his shows on videos. Another great show from the UK was Faulty Towers and I've all of those episodes on DVD's. One other show that I remember from the mid-1960's is the Eric Sykes Show. Two others were: On The Buses & Last Of The Summer Wine, all British.
