I give you - The Prime Time Schedule for 1987....... *wipes tear from eye*

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

Those were the days!
:cry:

[WI_DEM]

1. there were many more family orienated shows back then

[Burma Jones]

2. Wow, I only watched MNF and St. Elsewhere

Went throuh a lot of Video Rentals in those days.............

[shaolinmonkey]

3. Wow...Max Headroom.

A TV show based on a virtual spokesman for a failed soft drink. Is this when the realized cocaine was a problem?

[terrya]

4. "MAAAAAATLOCK"

Gawd...I remember so many of these shows.

[johnnie]

5. Are you serious?

I didn't watch much TV in those days, but I recognize a few of the shows. I'm now reminded as to why I didn't watch TV... :)

[flamingyouth]

25. I didn't either - I was in college

And the TV room was always taken over by annoying people. But I see I didn't miss out on anything. :hi:

[tridim]

6. I watched..

Family Ties, Moonlighting and the best show ever, Max Headroom.

Where did you get that?

[Straight Shooter]

7. The Tracey Ullman Show and Night Court

I remember those, they were great. I haven't watched television in probably 7 or 8 years. Survivor? American Idol? Gawd forbid. x(

[Left Is Write]

And remember the Tracey Ullman show is what brought us the Simpsons.

[Left Is Write]

8. I watched a few of those shows from time to time.

I spent half of 1987 pregnant and the other half caring for an infant who didn't like to sleep. TV was my friend.

[MarianJack]

9. No Reality Shows!

SIGH!

[Jeff in Cincinnati]

11. ALF wasn't reality?!

I've got to rethink my whole relationship to the universe now.

Damn!

[kick-ass-bob]

10. Wiseguy! Equalizer! Tour of Duty! Wow!

But what the hell was "The New Adventures of Beans Baxter"
?????

[tridim]

12. Was Fox really only on the air Saturday and Sunday?

I don't remember that.

[kick-ass-bob]

14. Oh, yeah that's right! They were a part time network.

Maybe they should have stuck with that...

[pres2032]

13. perfect strangers!!!! the best show of that time!!!

[TlalocW]

15. Oh, man...

Thursdays were great - Cosby Show, Different World, Cheers, and Night Court (the best). I also really liked, "I Married Dora" and "Max Headroom" because of the Latin and the English women who starred in them - Elizabeth Pena and Amanda Pays respectively.

Matt Frewer (Max Headroom) could out-Jim Carrey Jim Carrey at times.

16. FRANK'S PLACE!

dang. i watched to much teevee back then.

[drm604]

17. Hill Street Blues

One of the best cop shows of all time.

[Magrittes Pipe]

18. Sledge Hammer!

The best TV show ever!

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

23. Better than the New Adventures of Beans Baxter?

Please :eyes:

[sundog]

19. wtf is "I Married Dora"

must have missed that one :shrug:

[Left Is Write]

27. Wonder no more....

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092377/?fr=c2l0ZT1kZnxteD0yMHxzZz0xfGxtPTIwMHx0dD1vbnxwbj0wfHE9aSBtYXJyaWVkIGRvcmF8aHRtbD0xfG5tPW9u;fc=1;ft=21

I think you'll be glad you missed it.

[sundog]

28. wow - sounds zany

the imdb review says "ahead of its time" :wtf:

[DelawareValleyDem]

30. You didn't miss much

Elizabeth Pena was in it. She's done much better. The ending was kind of funny though.

[EstimatedProphet]

20. Yuck

This is the decade of Highway to Heaven, remember...

[flvegan]

21. "Women In Prison" on Fox? Shouldn't that be late-night HBO?

I mean, nude shower scenes at 8:30? 227 didn't stand a chance. Let's see...click over from Blair and company in their "Facts Of Life" girlschool show...

[cmf]

22. I sure watched a lot of TV in those days

I loved all the shows on NBC Saturday night. Although there are a lot of shows I don't remember at all. Like "Women in Prison". :shrug:

[terrya]

24. I imagine no one but me remembers "Mr. President"

George C. Scott in a sitcom, playing a fictitious President of the United States. The problem with the show was the fact that it was "humor impaired"

[LoZoccolo]

26. I remember Thursday on NBC was like, the night.

Like everybody would watch Cosby and go straight through to Night Court! Family Ties was in that schedule in previous years too.

[AlCzervik]

29. Knots Landing!!!! I loved that show, never missed it.

[loudestchick]

31. ABC ruled Tuesday nights.

[terrya]

32. I doubt if the networks today would have the balls to do a show called...

"My Two Dads". The Neanderthal mouth breathers on the religious right would have a aneurysm over it.
