So you wonder if I was always a Couch Tato or did I grow into a full spud?. I'd say I perfected it! Today's post will be on the teenage Tato, and the next will be on Baby Tato. This is not a post that shall include sitcoms....but on drama's that fueled the thirst for continuing series that you had to not miss to keep up! Now did this in a hurry so there are a few shows that i couldnt track down their pictures e.g
COUNTERSTRIKE, STREET JUSTICE , DARK JUSTICE, TIMETRAX ...they were a bit lame but darn it we watched them all...LORD BLESS KTN for opening our eyes. heck even the chick prog SISTERS which run a good 6 years
SO this will be a pictorial post( smile at akiey5)
Let the pics do the talking and refresh those memories...if only we could go back in time...
North and South
Who could forget Orry and George tearing up the dollar to meet up after the war. The evil Elkanah Bent. And Leslie Ann Down.
ROOTS:
From Kunta Kunte thru to Chicken George to Alex Haley....
Neighbours
Ramsey Street: Robinsons and the Ramseys.
V
Wow. Aliens on earth!
Thorn Birds
MMM mmm mmm ever seen a woman curse GOD for taking her two men. She loved two priests-one her son, the other her son's father. So not only had God taken them as Priests he tool their lives too...she played with fire as the priest tasted forbidden fruit!
Renegade
He was a cop! A cop gone bad! Framed for murder...an outlaw...a Renegade cue that music!
Commish
He was funny in his cheeky ways!
Knots Landing
A successful spin off from Dallas. The Ewings...The Somners...Mackenzies...we all remember Paige and Abby! 13 successful seasons-beat that!
Lois and Clark
Oh Teri Hatcher...and Superman as well...the thing missing in smallville is the costume!
E.R
To me the best medical drama to me...even with House and Grey's Anatomy-I argue this was on a league of it's own in 94. PERFECTION...remember they shot an episode live!
