Sctv and bosom buddies with tom hanks played in syndication on nbc at late night.

Perfect Strangers is my answer.

Malcolm in the Middle. I watched other shows, but this is the first I remember wanting to watch the premiere and actually watching the entire run.

>>217255243
I saw the one where it exploded, I think. It might be a false memory.

TNG, specifically the episode The Big Goodbye. I remember having a "ooh, I get it now" moment when I understood what the holodeck was. I must have been five at the time.

Pax played touched by an angel, Quinn medicine woman and supermarket game show. They played switch foot once on a short-lived music video countdown for gospel artist. It was the number 1 reigning champion for awhile.

For me, it's either MacGyver or TNG as the oldest show I remember watching live

>>217255241
Yeah I know for a fact I saw the first airing of Doogie Howser MD with my mom. I know of older shows but that’s the one I distinctly remember seeing the premiere as it happened.
I need to check and see if Northern Exposure was before Howser

They were going to send big bird into space but the suit didnt fit, a teacher got sent instead and the tragedy occurred.

I'm so old I watched The Simpsons as shorts on this show before it became a TV series. And yes, I also watched the original Simpsons pilot, "Simpsons Roasting On An Open Fire" when it first aired on December 17, 1989.

Same here. I remember it feeling a bit revolutionary how they just went on their life with this goofy alien living with them. Howard the Duck came out the same year too. Now it's been done to death and felt lame in Sonic 1.

All the TGIF shit in the 90s. Full House, Family Matters, Step By Step, I could go on

Did you see the 3d special? You had to pick up the glasses at a Wendy's.
>>
>>217256535
>>217256575
nah, they shoot whites, now
>>
>>217256769
I remember the Home Improvement episode in 3D. It was kind of lame. Most of the episode was not in 3d then they would prompt you to put the glasses on for a minute at a time

Back the blue till it happens to you. Like that teen whose dad is maga and got himself arrested and charged with obstruction. He was screaming how we dont fight the cops, we are republican.
>>
>>217256927
>Back the blue till it happens to you.
It's ok to back the blue when they are doing a good thing like removing invaders. Obstructing this is objectively a crime.
>>
Burger show, Boy Meets World.

Bong show, Only Fool and Horses.

>>217256967
Driving away when you arent detained isnt obstructing. He wasnt in the way. Crossing guards in elementary school are in the same amount of danger. You are either israeli or Russian cyberagent stoking chaos.

Family Matters was a spin off of Perfect Strangers

the mom was the elevator worker in Perfect Strangers and Family Matters was supposed to focus on her, but Steve Urkel mogged

>>217257494
Ooh, I should've chosen that one. I remember it scaring the crap out of me when some guy got hits skin ripped off revealing what was underneath. Rewatching it "recently" as an adult though, that nothing ending pissed me off enough not want to watch anymore. There was almost zero closure to anything.

And she was replaced in season 9.

Did we ever get a balki and urkel team up?

>>217258425
>Did we ever get a balki and urkel team up?
No, but Larry did do a cameo as Hariette's boss on Family Matters and Carl showed up on Perfect Strangers a few times.
>>
>>217258425
>Did we ever get a balki and urkel team up?
That would have been a great episode.

She was a child when the show was created.
>>
>>217257989
Steve showed up on Step by Step. So are all the TGIF shows in the same universe?
>>
>>217254865
probably Buck Rogers or The Incredible Hulk.
the shows I really remember were Looney Tunes shorts and Abbott and Costello movies and Star Trek OTS but those were all reruns

He is clearly not in the middle. Dumb ass promo photographer.
