OK...are you totally looking forward to the Sex and the City movie? I so am! All the hype around this movie got me to thinkin', "I wish they would just bring this show back!". Well, you gotta know where I'm going from here. I would love if they brought _______ show back. So I give you thirteen shows I wish would come back, I miss 'em, and I want 'em back!1) Sex and the City-Husband would love it, only because I torture him nightly with reruns on tbs.
2) Cheers-I would watch this show until the end of time...love it, miss it.
3) Sienfeld-Seriously, I watch it over, and over, and over...just make some new ones, we'd watch!
4) Melrose Place-I think I was the last one watching this show. I turned off the lights, and yet if they brought it back, I'd be the first one watching:)
5) Will & Grace-I never approved ending this one...
6) Designing Women-How did this series end? Did they do a series finale, 'cause I never saw one?
7) Gilmore Girls-I just loved this show...was I the only one? Is that why they quit makin' 'em?
8) The Larry Sanders Show-I'm a dork, I know...
9) Dynasty-OK, I'm a dork, and I'm old...
10) Freaks & Geeks-Does anyone remember this show, cause I loved it!?!
11) Night Court-Why did I like this show so much? I totally forgot about it until John Larroquette showed up on Boston Legal...I loved Night Court...
12) WKRP in Cincinnati-They could totally bring this one back, right?
13) Murphy Brown-I would totally watch this one too! Don't get me wrong, I love Candice on Boston Legal. She could do that and a new Murphy Brown, couldn't she?
What did I miss...? What would you want them to bring back from the TV graveyard???
I miss a show, but I can't remember the name, but it came out the same time that X-Files came out, and the guy's name was Chase. Do you know what I'm talking about?
ReplyDeleteCheers was great but I think it had run its course. It would be in danger of looking very dated now. I think Susiej is thinking of a show called Millenium.
ReplyDeleteYou had me at Gilmore Girls. That would actually be my number one even though I thought it went downhill the last two seasons. They need to do a movie, and Jess needs to be in it. Period.
ReplyDeleteI never understood Sex in the City. I saw it a couple times when I was in hotel rooms and was like: "What??" I have friends who watch it, I'm just a retard.
ReplyDeleteNow we don't have a TV soo.....
Happy TT! :)
Mary Hartman Mary Hartman.
ReplyDeleteHave I dated myself sufficiently?
Hands down, Alice Or 3's Company.
ReplyDeleteWKRP MUST come back to prevent cultural illiteracy. We owe it to future generations!
ReplyDeleteI LOVED Freaks and Geeks. Glad I wasn't the only one.. but I think we were the only two.
ReplyDeleteIf you could arrange to have Arrested Delvt come back? I'd heart you big time. Or maybe Home Front. I LOVED that show.
ReplyDeleteMake it three Freaks fans!
ReplyDeleteI want Buffy and Angel back, myself. And Farscape. Don't forget about Aeryn Sun and John Crichton and company.
I sooooooooooooo cant wait for the Sex in the City novie. I cried when they ended the series. I have all of them on DVD. Happy TT.
ReplyDeleteCheers and Seinfeld were some of my faves. I think that says something about how shallow I am.
ReplyDeleteI need Gilmore Girls back. I was obsessed. The show lacked after Amy Sherman Palladino (the creator) left.
ReplyDeleteI watch the dvds all the time to get my fix. I wish they would do a movie or something!
I just want to see Lauren Graham back.
(It's sad - but DH and I will be naming our next daughter Lorelai!)
Northern Exposure
ReplyDeleteloved it.

I love those shows!!! All of them. I can remember watching Night Court with my dad and us laughing so loudly.
ReplyDelete*sigh* Thanks for the walk down memory lane!
Now I have the WKRP song in my head. Great TT!!!
ReplyDeleteOK--as for Idol. Expletive . . . expletive . . . expletive. You've got to be kidding me. I swear, that Vote for the Worst and all those 12-old-girls who didn't vote for Archuleta had something to do with this. Ugh.
I don't think there has ever been a show as culturally important or as funny as WKRP. One of my all time favs. Come on...how funny was it when Les is reporting live from the turkey drop!
ReplyDeleteI also miss Hogan's Heros. Classic funny!
I don't know.
ReplyDeleteI am still so bitter about Will and Grace!!!!
I miss Gilmore Girls....sigh
ReplyDeletei love gilmore girls. i can watch reruns forever. i loved sportsnight, short lived but wonderful. count me in for a buffy reunion show too. and friends, i'd take that one back even though it got a little weird by the end...also...mash. that one is great in all its rerun glory too. what would it be like today!? this was a great post, i do love my tv shows!:-)
ReplyDeletep.s. how 'bout punky brewster or the muppet show????
The larry sanders show = brilliant.
ReplyDeleteYou + me = Last 2 people watching Gilmore Girls and Melrose Place.
The best!
The larry sanders show = brilliant.
ReplyDeleteYou + me = Last 2 people watching Gilmore Girls and Melrose Place.
I still miss Jess from Gilmore Girls. And he's not the same on that popular super hero show. I want Jess back.
I'm going to go cry in my pillow.
I did not like the ending of Night Court. I don't know if WKRP could ever be re-created. It was so funny!

WKRP In Cinncinai, wow, that is an oldie but goodie. And how about Welcome Back Carter? You listed some awesome ones.
ReplyDeleteLauren
If I spent some time thinking about it, I could come up with dozens. Buffy & Angel & Firefly, definitely. Get a Life. Herman's Head. And I'll agree with you on Designing Women, Night Court, and WKRP in Cincinnati.
ReplyDeleteThose were some good shows. I also miss Sport Night and West Wing, before it jumped the shark after Sorkin left.
ReplyDeleteMy current favorite is New Amsterdam. I so hope they bring it back.
Happy TT!
I like the Gilmore Girls too!
ReplyDeleteOh Sex and the City! YES! Except I don't have HBO so I couldn't see new episodes anyway.
ReplyDeleteI watch reruns on CW and also torture my hubby. But you know what was REALLY bad about the reruns? The tremendous CUTS!
And the worst one was the very last (and BEST) episode, which I have seen most of, on the CW and TBS they cut the absolute BEST parts out!
Like when she finds her necklace, like when she continually is within a few feet of Mr. Big in Paris without either of them knowing. AND, the worst cut of all, when they cut the last scene when they finally reveal Mr. Big's name! I literally sat and stared at the tv for 10 minutes in complete shock after that one. How could they do that and live with themselves? And decided I need to just buy that series and be done with it.
Yes, I am WAY too much of a fan...
OK, I vote for nearly all of these shows. WKRP is in my top 10 favorites of all time. Great list.
ReplyDeleteHappy TT

ReplyDeleteGreat TT.
ReplyDeleteI would love to see MASH back, in some new form.
China Beach
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Will & Grace
Really wishing they would bring back "Sex and the City". We have already planned a girls night out on movie night for it. Looking forward to it so much.
ReplyDeleteI loved Gilmore Girls and WRKP but never watched any of the others. I don’t watch much TV at all … but I did love the original Star Trek series and wished they’d had more than 3 seasons worth of shows. I doubt they could reproduce it today. MASH comes to mind … but it did run a long time ;--)
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,
Many of them I'm still watching over and over. I agree bring them back. Happy TT
ReplyDeleteOh yes! Will and Grace! I loved Northern Exposure. I loved Seinfield. I loved Friends but somehow I don't really miss it. Cheers and Frazier both were especially good.
ReplyDeleteFor your inner Baily, check this out...click here
ReplyDeleteI used to watch "Any Day Now". I loved that show. Also, another one would be "Knots Landing".
ReplyDeleteForgot, One more:
ReplyDeleteThe Soprano's. Loved that show.
I"m with you on 2,3,5,6,12,13, and If I weren't so tired I'd add a few. :)
ReplyDeleteFriends and NYPD Blue...my favorites!
ReplyDeleteI totally miss the X-Files.
ReplyDeleteNorthern Exposure, NYPD Blues and Cheers.
ReplyDeleteThese are a few of my favorites. I have a habit of liking a show. The TV executives find out, and then cancel it.
Tom & Jerry cartoons. The politically incorrect version so we can laugh.
Great post, thanks for the stroll down memory lane.
Deadwood, Sopranos, and Friends!!!
ReplyDeleteIt would so be Party of Five, but then Matthew Fox would have to leave Lost and a lot of people would be unhappy about that!
ReplyDeleteFriends, oh Friends, how I does MISS me some FRIENDS!!! (I mean the show of course...)
ReplyDeleteI was just talking to one of my real life friends the other day about how much I miss this show.
I agree with Will and Grace too... And Yes, I will be seein' the SITC movie!
