In Chicago, we have ME-TV and ME-TWO, two stations that show nothing but the oldies. The Untouchables, Thriller, Outer Limits, Combat, etc. Great stations. ME-TV is great. It's on basic cable. I watched Perry Mason every morning at 9 a.m. when our girls were still in school. It's great fun to see so many stars of MSTed movies on the show. Plus they show the '60s-era Batman series. It's fun to show that to the girls once in a while. Freaks them out.

Anyone remember "Verti-Vision", "Just The Fax" Dragnet features or the Magic Hour? Those were some of my favorite Nick features.

h yeah, I loved the promos and commercials, The adventures of Milkman, How to be Swell and Our Television Heritage. For me it was Letterman then over to Nick for the Donna Reed and the Patty Duke show, every night for over a year. What fun. That's what I liked. I also liked the shows from the 60's as well as "I Love Lucy".

I don't know if they still do this, but I loved when TV Land used to do "TV Land's What The Heck Moments" where they would show a short, bizarre clip from one of the old shows out of context and it was always funny. Kind of like the pre-cursor to Conan O'Brien's "Walker: Texas Ranger" lever. The two I remember were both from Bonanza: Lorne Green randomly being fondled by an elephant and Hoss leaping off a cliff wearing a pair of homemade Icarus wings. Now that I think of it, Bonanza kind of had a lot of weird stuff in it. Anyone remember the Leprachaun episode?

Wow that is quite a lot of awesome stuff in that last post stevehadcrackers.
I'm not a fan of Bonanza, but I am going to have to check it out now to see the Leprachaun episode and other weird stuff. I've never watched TV land much (mainly because my cable provider didn't have it for so many years), so sadly I've never seen the "What The Heck Moments". But I miss the Walker Level more than anything else in this world.
When I was little I grew up on Nickelodean, and Nick at Nite. Taxi was my favorite show for a long long time.
