I was really little when F Troop was on the air, so I really didn’t like it. I discovered it in the 80s on Nick at Nite or something like that, I thought it was good but I liked Gilligsn’s island better when it was first run, maybe because my childhood brain got some more of it.

Oh yes, and Jeannie. I loved Jeannie. To me, Larry Hagman was always Tony Nelson not JR Ewing.

Those shows from the 60s are pure gold. Most of the stuff today is unwatchable.

RIP. Wrangler Jane.

“Those shows from the 60s are pure gold. Most of the stuff today is unwatchable.”

The writing in those shows was quite amazing and that is one industry which has really gone downhill.

My wife and I watch old movies and I love the fine writing. I would swear that many of the writers of that time were trained in radio. Man, they could turn out the lines.
