I've picked up my Dallas rewatch at season 7 after pausing when the TNT series started and then playing through my Cagney & Lacey set. Been thinking about The Mary Tyler Moore Show and The Bob Newhart Show. There were a few MTM episodes repeated at some stage but BN hasn't been seen here since the original run.

Knots Landing - as I've only seen once all the way through.
Dallas - but only up to season 10 I think.
Upstairs Downstairs
Tenko
Revenge - Again
Harpers Island - which I kind of recently bought and then noticed the entire thing was up on BBC iPlayer.
Desperate Housewives - Maybe?
Falcon Crest - If past season 4 was available.
Prisoner Cell Block H - I have seen various bits and pieces of this over the years but never the full thing and would love to see it all.
Sons And Daughters - Vague memories from my childhood made me watch recently when it was on YouTube and it was wonderful for all I managed to see. I would love to see it all at some point.
Lost - I think I have had two full watches of this but would love a revisit.
Game of Thrones

I have Dallas at my side all the time and I watch The Golden Girls all the time but I’d love to rewatch Knots Landing, Desperate Housewives and Cagney and Lacey.

My wish list is

NYPD Blue - Dennis Franz and Jimmy Smits were the best actors on TV and Steven Bochco the best producer out there in the 90s

Homeland - missing Carrie and Saul (and Peter)

Spooks - BBC - just dont know how i missed this 1st time round.

It's been my habit for at least a decade to re-watch favorite, classic sitcoms at a rate of no more than 1 or 2 episodes per day. There are about a dozen shows I cycle through, from I LOVE LUCY to MARY TYLER MOORE to THE SIMPSONS to ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT.

I almost never re-watch dramas. For one, I can't even keep up with the new shows on my "to watch" list, let alone try to add shows I've already seen. I also find that most dramas, particularly of the serialized nature, end poorly. No matter how much I loved a show in its early seasons, if it sputtered or fell apart at the end I have no interest in ever seeing it again. I started re-watching GAME OF THRONES a few months after it ended but, knowing what was to come, I just couldn't sustain interest. When the mood strikes me, I find watching some "best of clips" on Youtube to be faster and more satisfying as a nostalgia refresher.

That Bob Newhart Show is more than worth it on DVD-- it's one of the few that has held up for me remarkably well lately.

Like Dynasty?
Dynasty will always be in that 80s time capsule and that's why it always makes sense to me that it looks that particular way.
Desperate Housewives misses that zeitgeist association thing eventhough it's also very much a product of its time. It still looks relatively modern and I'm probably tempted to view it as a modern tv series. Which could be a very disappointing experience. Or not. Hence the "maybe".
I feel like I have the stomach for it.
If you can watch Upstairs Downstairs then you have the stomach for everything.
You're so hardcore.

Really want to soon
Sapphire & Steel
Logan's Run
Six Million Dollar Man
Bionic Woman
P. J. Hammond, who wrote five of the six serials for Sapphire and Steel, used to write stories for Ace of Wands. That is well worth seeing.

Ace of Wands was very good for me. It was great fun to do and allowed free reign to the imagination. In a way, one could say that it perhaps helped to inspire me with my own project Sapphire and Steel.”
-P.J. Hammond, 1984


Starring Michael Mackenzie as the magician/illusionist/psychic Tarot . It had follow-up episodes on two other later tv series, both featuring scary Mr Stabs. Sadly the first two series (with Judy Loe and Tony Selby as Tarot’s assistants) don’t survive except on audio. The last six serials survive intact though.

Victor Pemberton, who acted in, wrote for and script edited for Doctor Who wrote for Ace of Wands as well. He created the sonic screwdriver. And that Patrick Troughton story was released on DVD and blu-ray this week with six animated episodes.

Children’s shows were fun...



I’ve got The Six Million Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman on DVD. Due to acquire Logan’s Run soon.

Jet white dove
Snow black snake
Time has turned his face
From the edge of mystery
Where running is no race
Ageless night
Careless day
Fate reaches out a hand
To touch the edge of destiny
A story with no end

Tarot cards
Tarot the diamond man
Tarot guards
Wherever he can
Tarot cards
Tarot the diamond man
Tarot guards with mystic hands

Falcon sun
Leopard moon
Minds searching for tomorrow
Take what you can from yesterday
The rest beg - steal - or borrow
Iron roads
Asphalt sky
Windows made from water
Son of secrets - mystery’s child
Ruler of eight quarters

Velvet roofs
Tattooed streets
Patterns made from words
Laughter echoes in the dark
Life hovers like a bird

The Feathered Serpent. Lovely Aztec-based children’s drama with plenty of ritual sacrifices, poisonings, burials alive and murders to keep them entertained. The lead character murders the second lead too and cuts out his heart. Starring Patrick Troughton, Tony Steedman, Diane Keen and Brian Deacon.

Ace of Wands - Oh, that ending..! Starring Michael Mackenzie as Tarot, Judy Loe as Lulli, Tony Selby as Sam, Donald Layne-Smith as Mr Sweet, Petra Markham as Mikki and Fred Owl as Ozymandias. Fred Owl is an actual owl.

Children of the Stones

Since I have been in Covid lockdown, I have already re-watched "Dallas," (but only up to season 10), "Lost," "The Wire," "Game of Thrones," "American Gothic," and "24."

Next on my list are "The Shield," "Designated Survivor," and "Homicide Life of the Street."

That last one is going to be tricky since it isn't available on any streaming service and the DVDs are incredibly expensive.

I'd probably see The Streets of San Francisco over again, for one-- Karl Malden was riveting as Lt. Mike Stone, veteran homicide detective of the San Francisco Police Department, and he and Insp. Steve Keller (the great Michael Douglas) made a crack crime-solving team (one of the best I've ever seen).

I’m doing a Dallas rewatch right now. I barreled threw the earlier seasons but I notice the further I go the less I want to watch. I’m in season 12 now and I think it’s taken me about 3 months to watch the first 10 episodes. I would love to go back and rewatch original Dynasty as well. Haven’t seen an episode in many years and would definitely like to watch the entire series again
