Classic Tv Shows Index
Some of these classic television shows are enjoying a rebirth due to remakes of the originals. The Brady Bunch surged forward after a new era was exposed to a less-than genuine version of the show in the 1995 version. Even with the tongue-in-cheek style of this film, many people started seeking genuine Brady Bunch memorabilia and collectibles. The market for these items soared. The same held true for the Scooby Doo collectibles after the 2002 release of the film. This one was so popular a sequel was made. This remake has brought about a whole new market for Scooby Doo collectibles, new and old alike.
Most of these I have been very acquainted with even if they are not nearly the fan favorites of the previously mentioned classics. In Praise of Pip is a highly emotional tale of regret and woe starring Jack Klugman. Steel is a Rock 'Em Sock 'Em tale of the future pugilists of the boxing sport. They are robots, and a team of handlers tries to make a run for the big bucks with a has-been robot in a desperate try at making a few bucks. See how they succeed and perhaps how they fall short. Personally I had never seen Ring-A-Ding Girl, and it's classic Zone.
In addition to all these above-mentioned reasons, the availability of DVD players at an affordable price has also significantly improved the favorable quotient of DVDs All you need to do is plug it with a wide screen projector, television , and high quality audio system - you will be set for a classic film watching experience staying indoors. Furthermore, movies on DVD offer you the much-needed privacy allowing you to see movies on your own, which would have otherwise still left you ashamed if watched with family. From laughing aloud to crying like silly, you no longer need to hide your feelings while, watching a film in DVD
There are a lot of different ways to get your fix of classic movies while watching satellite tv , but none is quite as incredible and far-reaching in its scope as Turner Classic Movies. Sure, HBO might feature a more obscure film from time to time or have a monthly retrospective on a great actor, but Turner Classic Movies manages to air things on television that would be impossible to see anywhere else, including through your local video rental store or even Netflix. Basically, TCM is the underground cinema of satellite tv , only it is offering up a whole lot more than just cult classics.
For many of us these shows are so ingrained in our recollections it is as if Ritchie, Potsie and Mouth were our high school pals and we were right there with them throughout all of the teenage angst and mischief they got into. At the time many of us would sit and wonder what it would be like to be a Brady or Partridge. Who among us did not wish we owned the General Lee and could do some off- roading that rivaled that of the Duke brothers? Okay so not everything we learned from these classic Tv shows was something Mom was thrilled to find us reenacting.
