ROFL OT!!!!!!!!!!!!!On a more serious note, since brainstorming to come up with TV series, I have been having flashes (not hot flashes, I still have a few years to go, thank you very much) about my youth. I could see me rushing back from school, throwing my books and settling on the couch to watch my favourite programs EVER. How could I forget about these, I preferred them above any other, I grew up with them…… SKIPPY GENTLE BEN And…. FLIPPER!!!!!There was another one with a seal but I can’t remember the name. I’ll have to add ZORRO, who saved my life once. My dad asked me if I wanted to go with him to get something at a shop and I was all ready to go when Zorro started….. I decided to stay. My dad had an accident on the way, some wacko crashed into the right side (passenger) of the car and that side was pushed in all the way to the driver’s seat. If I had been there, it would have been very ugly. My first cat was called Zorro, needless to say……. I’m all teary now……

Oh yeah...God bless "Nick at Nite"......I love Sam's little wiggles....& I dream of Genie.....wuff, she'd shake the whole body......LOL!
OK, there's one weakest link.....if you were stranded on an island would you prefer:
1.) Samantha (from Bewitched) 2.) Genie (from I Dream of Genie) 3.) Abu (from Aladin...LOL, one for the ladies??) 4.) The Good Witch of the West (from Wizard of Oz) 5.) The Bad Witch (From Oz-for the Masicists out there) 6.) What other genies, witches can we think of?
LOL, RacerX
P.S. I'd have to opt for Samantha. She was smart & always got Darren OUT of trouble, versus Genie, whom always got Tony INTO trouble! ;D

When I was a kid (…yes, TV was just coming onto the scene) there was a kids show that I always remembered the name but not necessarily the content. It was called “Bill and Ben the Flowerpot Men”. What a great show that was!
And what about the socially unacceptable “Noddy and Big Ears”.
Hogans Heroes The Cisco Kid The Untouchables The Three Stooges My Three Sons Dukes of Hazzard Have Gun Will Travel Twilight Zone (the original)
And who could forget the greatest show EVER made for TV – Thunderbirds

Well it looks like we have more than one category here:
Sit Coms, Drama's, Kids Shows, Classics, Classic Sit Coms, Mysteries, Misc TV shows.
(oh yeah- TV Genies too)
What I'll do- so as not to flood Weakest Links is introduce them every other week or so.

Hey RacerX, I'm a bit late on that one (jet-lagged and all...) but I have to correct you: it's not the OPRIGINAL Star Trek series but the ORIGONAL Star Trek series You wouldn't want to contradict our beloved Wycco, now would you?

How about a weakest link of reality TV shows
This can include MTV's real world and road rules, survivor, big brother, temptation island, the mole, fear factor, and america's funniest home videos (well not exactly reality TV but I couldn't think of another one).
Another one: dating TV show: blind date, the fifth wheel, elimidate, shipmates, change of heart, etc. I know there are more but these are the ones that I remember.

Sorry Wycco but I'm on a roll here with the WL. How about felines:
Lion Tiger Sheeta Panther Cat Leopard Jaguar Lynx Puma Cerval Caracal Cougar Bobcat
We can continue with birds and I can come up with a few names Wycc, if you are interested.

Sheeta? Now you've been blasting X for spelling mistakes lately... Shame on you! BTW- good ideas everyone... I think with the TV ones- I'll spread them out: one every other week- just so we have a variety of topics going at any one time!
