original

Back in the 1980's tv was fun to see
Back in the 80's you could see MASH
or Knight Rider,tv was fun to see .
 

One dealt with war another a talking car
but both dealt with the human condition
and where we were,tv was fun to see .
 

Nowadays you got walking dead people
drugs on tv even shows like The Office
or Scandal ,its ashame ,they don't make
tv fun to see.
 

There was Happy Days and Dynasty both
fun to watch,one dealt with the 50's and a
man name the Fonz the other dealt with
power and sex but always in good taste
 

Where did television go wrong I even
like Steve Austin the Six Million Dollar
Man, television was fun to see .

 

Give the 80's again at least back then
I was twenty years younger and didn't
have any grays,tv was fun to see .

 Reviews of "Remembering When"
Reviewed by Ronald Hull
Reviewed on November 27, 2012
As we age, we tend to forget the bad and romanticize the good in our past. I wasn't particularly fond of any of those shows, preferring Ed Sullivan, Laugh In, Twilight Zone, and Saturday Night Live, Mike Douglas over sitcoms and hero dramas.

Just listened to some old radio shows. Those actors put a lot of character in those voices and made our imaginations carry the rest, like reading a good book. The quality of those stories is phenomenal considering what they had for technology.
