Just the facts Ma'am

Recently, I ordered The first season of Dragnet from Amazon. I had wanted to watch Dragnet and since it is not on TV anymore I figured I would check out the prices at Amazon. I found the first season new for really cheap. It arrived a few days ago. I was thinking about how I used to watch Dragnet on Nick at Nite, and then I thought about all of those old shows I loved to watch. Many of those shows are not on anymore. I am disappointed about that. Nick at Nite went from shows like Dragnet, I Love Lucy, Bewitched, I dream of Jeanie and Mary Tyler Moore to shows like Roseanne, Fresh Prince of Bel-air, and George Lopez which they show over and over again on many other channels. I can't believe that they would do that to quality television. It really makes me sad. It was fun to watch those old shows. I remember watching them with my Grandma Rose. I wish Nick at Nite would bring back the CLASSICS!

When they decided to make the change at Nick at Nite they started a channel called TV Land. They had only the old shows on there. Now they have some of the old shows like Bonanza which I only like to hum the tune and some others like All in the Family and Sanford and Son and Roseanne is on like 10 times a night. They recently added Home Improvement that was on Nick at Nite but it is like they take it off one channel and throw it on the other. I also miss watching Patty Duke, The Dick Van Dyke Show, and all of those other little gems. No one wants to watch 10 episodes of Roseanne a day, every day. So, Hello out there in TV Land and Nick at Nite. Turn off the junk and bring back the oldie but goodies.
