What was the last TV show you watched?

[jamespowers]

Don't even get me started on the Cobra II. We were all pumped when we heard Ford was coming out with the next generation Cobra, then we saw it!

And died laughing just like I did.

 

[AtomicEraTom]

I have one in green and di-noc, but it's not an LTD II. I see your pic came from the Station Wagon Forums. I'm a member over there.

Just watched that Wives with Beehives show. Didn't think I'd be impressed and I was right. Came off scripted to me, which I'm sure it was.

Di-Noc!? :eusa_doh: That is one of the reasons I hate them.
Green and Di-noc:

uke: Oops same color.

Hi All

I watched an episode of BONAZA today. The hat that Dan Blocker AKA Horse Cartwright was wearing must of weight 10lbs
A giant of a hat, clearly the largest hat I ever saw on the head of a human being.
You had to love Horse and Little Joe and Hop Sing etc.
Best regards

I knew someone with the previous model wagon pictured, same color combination though.
This is one of the reasons I watch the old shows though, because like Tom said, they were still optioned nicely.
Many cars just come with tan, grey, or black interior. Gone are the days of blue, green, red/maroon, etc.
I'll concede on the clothes because a look at wishbookweb.com reveals just how bad "fashion" was in the 70's and even into the 80's.
It's one thing to see it in the tv shows, but quite another to see what was on sale for the public to buy.
Like plaid pants. :eeek:
The old tv shows are a time capsule showing the values and mindset of that period, as reflected in the styles of dress, interior design, and cars used.

I too watched that Beehives show and like you, I was not impressed. More shallow and catty reality tv.

Yeah but the interiors came in those same plaid fabrics as the clothing. I don't need those interior options. At least they didn't have shag rugs in them.

 

[Gregg Axley]

Shag rugs? That's known as "deep pile carpeting" in some models.

I decided (after so many on here discussed the show) to upload The Rockford Files to my Netflix Que.
So far, not bad, but I'm only in the first episode.

In other words ugly.

The Rockford Files was a show I used to watch with my father many years ago. It has to be good.

 

[AtomicEraTom]

Great show. My dad hates Rockford's car, though.

Well it was a 70s car:

 

[Touchofevil]

Undercover Boss. And I too loved The Rockford Files as did my father.

 

[AtomicEraTom]

He hated the color and that it didn't have a spoiler.

Well it was a 70s car:

Watching I love the 1880's.

 

[Stearmen]

Don't forget AMC Gremlin and Jeep Levi's edition interiors! Ricardo Montalban would haunt me tonight if I didn't mention every ones favorite interior option, Corinthian Leather!

[Gregg Axley]

Watching Bewitched.
This is sadly the few episodes Dick York was absent continuously, because of his pain/painkillers issue.
As with a lot of characters leaving a show, he calls in on the phone but we never see him.

 

[LocktownDog]

The Rifleman

 

[John in Covina]

I watched some of the making of prohibition last night before bed time.

The color was lousy---a 70s color of course. Spoliers cost extra and Rockford was cheap.

I saw that too. Andrew Jackson beating down a would be assassin when his gun misfired with his walking stick. :rofl:

Jack the Ripper: Francis Tumblety?
Documentary which theorizes that Jack the Ripper was an American quack doctor named Francis Tumblety.

 

[Miss Golightly]

The Girl - I watched this on Christmas Eve on BBC2. It was a drama based on the difficult relationship between Tippi Hedren and Alfred Hitchcock. I was really looking forward to seeing this but it was very disappointed. I haven't seen too much of Sienna Miller's work but can't say that she's a very good actress - she went through the motions as Tippi but to me she was all style and no substance. Toby Jones however was superb as Hitchcock - he had his voice down pat and gave a great performance. Overall, the film was a bit on the airy side - no great revelations (apart from what we have heard Tippi talking about in interviews) and was all rather underwhelming - more could have been made of the project I reckon.

Jack the Ripper: James Tumblety?
Documentary which theorizes that Jack the Ripper was an American quack doctor named Francis Tumblety.

That would fit, if it had happened in America. I know he could have traveled, but why?
Still think it was a derranged Doctor over there, and not a member of the royal family.

 

[ClaraBelles_Hats_etc]

I've been viewing Hart of Dixie, just because I saw a preview of a character wearing a hat.
