I'm not even thinking kids shows. I don't want a JH show. I'm thinking Waltons, Little House, Happy Days, Cosby--those kind of shows, you could watch with your kid, and possibly enjoy.
Mal: Cut it out. Job's not done until we're back on Serenity. Zoe: Sorry, sir. Didn't mean to enjoy the moment.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Elmo has totally ruined Sesame Street.
Except for kids, apparently.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Elmo is a punk and Henson is spinning in his grave.
Oh, I added Fraggle Rock up there. Its yet another transition.

I liked Happy Days, but the rest of those tended to put me to sleep.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Cosby, especially the early seasons, was Fun-nee.

Okay, I liked early-seasons Cosby too. But Waltons and Little House are the two biggest examples of boring TV I remember from my childhood.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I still crack up thinking about the one where they set up a fake "real world" for Theo. Little Rudy!!

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I think I had something to say - that had nothing to do with TV. But I think the concept of restricting things to being broadcast durring certain hours only - ignores two thing that are happening -TIVO and onDemand channels.
and I would love to be able to buy my channels in some sort of ala carte fashion. there would be NO espn or golf channels. or shoping channels for that matter. I assume that even with an a la carte type menu - there would be some sort of package - to lure people into other channels
can someone explain why my cable co called me 3x to get me to try a free trial of showtime - when every single time I said I was debateing about what I could do to Lower my cable bill.
