In 1970, I was five years old and in love with David Cassidy. So when I discovered that "The Partridge Family" was available on DVD, I had to rent it. We watched the beginning of season one and Colter liked it. Gary stayed in the other room, trying not to turn as many colors as the psychedelic bus Shirley drove.

I love when TV Land shows old Sid and Marty Croft shows on a marathon. I made Lillianna sit through, LAND OF THE LOST,H.R.PUFFINSTUFF, THE BUGALOOS and SIGMUND THE SEA MONSTER.She thought they were bizarre! She was stunned that I could sing all the theme songs.
I never see re-runs of THREE FOR THE ROAD but that was my all time favorite show on a Sunday morning. I thought Leif Garrett was a hottie with his beautiful hair and cutie pie smile. Ok, now he's a recovering drug addict and he's bald but back then....oooooh baby!!

"I Love Lucy," then and forever. Even though watching Lucy have to beg for money and Ricky "spanking" her when he thinks she needs it makes my feminist hackles rise, I still laugh my head off when I watch the show.

Gilligan's Island, for its fantastic implausibility and bamboo-bicycle-powered appliances! Mm, coconut cream pie.

OMG- I was a huge David Cassidy fan too! In fact during college, we used to play drinking games with the board game (I stumbled across a Partridge Family board game in mint condition back around 1985-86) and managed to also find three orginal albums to boot. :)
BTW: Don't ever choose to play Danny or Mom in the game - they always end up drinking the most. :)
PS: I still have both the game and albums :)

I miss the simple cartoons - The Looney Toons, Mickey Mouse and company. I can hardly keep up with all the new cartoons.
