[QUOTE="DallasFanForever, post: 388628, member: 13221"] No, it wasn’t, and again I see that surprises us both. Of course back then when we’re younger we really don’t pay attention to those kinds of things but I’m quite often finding myself surprised these days at how many shows I watched back then that I thought were hits, only to discover now that they never really were. Well, at least not ratings-wise anyway. Same here. It passed me by as well and I’m not sure why because it was definitely the type of show I would watch at the time. Only in recent years have I realized how truly underrated it was. Conversely, it’s a show I look at now and ask why did I watch it back then? But then again I notice I’m saying that with a lot of shows I grew up with so that’s okay. Maybe that’s the answer to my question. Perhaps it’s just nostalgia, which I’m an admitted sucker for. WW gives me more of that feeling, but putting them side by side I have to say BW was the better show. Now, if you ask me which one I’m going to look at random clips of, I’m picking WW. I find it the more entertaining of the two, but if I’m going to watch an entire episode looking for the better story then it’s BW. Those time slots you posted are very interesting. Did a lot of these shows in general air that much earlier over there at the time or was it just a WW thing? [/QUOTE]
