Bring back Bewitched (the original series) with Elizabeth Montgomery, who's sadly no longer with us.
It always brightened my teatimes, after school.
I remember leaving Two Eggs boiling on the stove, whilst I watched that nose twitching witch.. lol. Suddenly, there was a BANG, My eggs had boiled dry and burst all over my Mums kitchen walls:eek:
It was a while before I was trusted to cook again:D

Drives your hubby "made"?? -What! a cup of tea:confused:
I quite enjoyed Charmed, but couldn't bare to watch each episode on an endless loop -like channel 4 have done with their "Friends"... Groan:(

Hmmmm... I suppose that these series could be remade with modern day actors.
Alias Smith And Jones was a good series and quite funny at times:D

i agree with you all i except i dont watch soaps now, i stopped watching eastenders corrie emmerdale about 2 years ago, (i grew up with these shows) as it is just tripe and when i see articles on tv mags about who is going to sleep with who, and who is going to kill who etc. i just couldn't beleive that i watched such trash; i only watch holby city and casualty at least they dont have those front page plot lines on tv mags to spoil everything.
i briefly flicked over to five and saw home and away the other day - and guess who i saw SALLY what on earth is she STILL on that show for, doesn't she know how to quit the soap and go ACT somewhere else, she has typecasted herself for sure .
What did i ever see in neighbours and home and away, in fact i can't stand that australian guy who does a cookery slot on the saturday cook show on BBC 1 in the mornings he REALLY get's on my nerves that accent is horrendously annoying.
Anyway i'd like to add to the old shows list were land of the giants with the hunky steve, the 20,000 leagues under the sea or whatever it was called that was also on channel 4 on sunday's, lost in space (WARNING; WARNING! - flapping arms) - fab.
i currently watch bewitched on living tv 10am - it's great! they had wonder woman on there at the weekend i didn't watch it though.
Challenge TV puts on the old gameshows, subscribe if you can to it, on sky/cable - takeshi's castle is ace!
Message to Mod - The spell check facility doesn't seem to be working, just keeps asking me to download software.:cool:

Sally has already left the Australian Home And Away episodes -we, in the UK, are several (SIX I think) months behind.:(

lol 6 months is nothing she has been on that show since 1989; I think one of the first to show up. At least carly’s husband Ben has made it and got out of these naff shows, he now stars in nip/tuck. I hear as a general rule that professional TV actors do not stay in a role more than 3 years to avoid being typecasted.
Look at vin diesel he wanted to make sure he wasn't typecasted into doing hard man roles so he did a couple of roles with kids, to demonstrate that he can be employed doing something else. It’s better than staying doing Kung foo type movies that Steven Segal has been doing (and recently announced that he doesn't want to keep doing these types of roles) and the same for Jean Claude Van Damme - well and truly typecasted.

There are far too many repeats on TV. We pay enough money in the licencing fee (don't get me started on that) without being served up stuff that was made years ago.
In my opinion, there should be no repeats on network TV. There are enough on the digital channels.

I've never had any trouble with Firefox, but this site is a bit particular about our use of too many Smileys in messages.
Try adjusting your Pop-Up setting, as it may need to allow this site. Alternatively; your PCs Firewall might be blocking this sites access!
Good Luck with sorting it out:)

The trouble with the way that television is going (like in the US) is that when you increase the quantity of channels -you're bound to lose a great deal of quality.
It's a sad way for TV to go, and it will most probably get worse -repeat wise:(

Unfortunately I only have the 5 basic channels, but I've noticed that "Bewitched" DVDs are at my local library (for rent) -so I may rent series 1 or 2 for £2 pounds per boxset, per week -quite a bargain:)

It does sound like a bargain, glad you have found them . Enjoy. :)
