Yep, shorter shows and fewer new ones each year. Used to be a time when a series would air new episodes pretty much every week, with a short break over summer. Now they get 4 - 5 months off over summer, plus a christmas break, plus a "spring break" of a month.

Wish I could find a job like that.

That sounds like Scotty's schedule. Who does he know that you don't?

Who is Lawrence Welk?

I probably spelled his name wrong, but I assume you don't know because they must ban him in Texas? If so, your lucky.

Thanks for reminding me why I turned TV off 12 years ago! Been thinking about turning it back on to see what's changed or if I 'm missed anything-quess not.
Big Blue did jog my memory of fond mornings with my 3 boys watching Fog Horn, Leg Horn while waiting for the school bus to come... I just got a laugh thinking about starting my day with that corny barnyard humor 30 years ago!

I SAY , I SAY THAT WAS A JOKE SON!!! STAND UP BOY, THAT ONE WENT OVER YOUR HEAD!!!

Laughter is good medicine, thanks blue...sty

I prefer Sanford and Son (reminds me of my family coming home from Auctions), and the History Channel. Good Quality Stuff, except for commercials.

Big Blue, just making sure you know I was poking fun, 'cause I grew up watchin' the same stuff, with a little Garfield thrown in.

When I need to relax, I work on the Dodge. 15,000 swear words later, I feel a lot better !

I usually stick to watching the speed channel, spike tv, the history and discovery channels. They all have pretty good stuff on most of the time. My favourtie shows would have to be The Simpsons, Trucks, and Family Guy.
