6. Many nights I watch an ep before turning in.

I was too young to have seen it when it originally aired, but reruns were a staple on our local UHF station when I was a kid, and I still enjoy it to this day.

Saw the black & white pilot ep a little while back, and Werner Klemperer's performance was amazing, and he was this close to playing Klink straight. He and John Banner were born to play their roles.

I know it's popular to deride the show now, but it will always be a classic to me.
