I always like Animation. Everything that was available in the 70's/80's till today. I even enjoy Spongebob Squarepants. My favorites from recently (fairly recently), are Powerpuff Girls and Dexter's Laboratory. My favorite animated Movie of late was How to Train Your Dragon, because Toothless the Dragon looks like my late and first cat, Morgan (a boy).

When I was young, my Grandmother and I watched The Six Million Dollar Man and Carol Burnett. And we all watched MASH. I was very young but enjoyed all those shows, there really was not much choice because we had 2 TV's. One was my Granfather's. I ended up really loving SMDM and then the Bionic Woman, and on Tuesdays after swim practice, I got to watch Happy Days and Laverne and Shirley. Maybe Three's Company, but I was a bit young for that.

I didn't watch TV much through the Eighties, my private High School was so competetive, I just went to school, studied, and then to swim practice, with no real time for TV. I watched a lot of MTV, to see popular videos of the music of the day. My favorite video was the Animated-like video for Take On Me, by A-Ha. now, there's not so much music on MTV, reality stuff, they don't really play music anymore. Unless you pay for the fancy cable and get the other Music channels but that doesn't come with basic Cable.

Today I enjoy watching Criminal Minds and Law and Order: SVU. I watch the News Channels a lot, but recently I am tired of all the politics. It's very frustrating. I like to be well-informed, but the news can be depressing and irritating. Sometimes I wonder why people think the way they do... When I go to visit my Gradmother, who is about 87, She enjoys CSI, NCIS, and Bones. I always watch her programs when I visit with her. I will see her again in a couple weeks.

I also enjoy watching sit-coms like Seinfeld, New Adventure of Old Christine (both in reruns), and lately, The Big Bang Theory. I love those guys. Its just like the guys in my High school, very geeky guys. Also reminds me that I loved the very short lived show Freaks and Geeks from like 10yrs ago maybe even longer.., Very much like how it was in the late-seventies (the freak part) and eighties (the geek part), for me in Suburban New Jersey. I sort of miss being a young person, but then I remember how hard it was back then, so I guess I like revisiting through TV...

And now that I've understand the question, I can answer!!!! ;) :D

When I was young I haven't TV set at home but I watched TV at my grand'mother house each evening from 6:00pm to nearly 8:00pm
I liked a lot watch a TV show for children called "Children's Island" with the "sweet monster" named Casimir.
I watched also cartoons like "Heidi", "Candy" and "Goldorak".
And of course series. The first I saw was "Charlie's Angels". My favourite was "Bionic Woman" but I watched also "Man from Atlantis" (it was my grandmother favourite one), "Starsky & Hutch".

Later I discovered "The Six Million Dollar Man". I liked a lot "Magnum" and "Simon and Simon". My mother and I became a little addict to "Dallas".

Now, family life let me less time for watching TV but I watched nearly completely " Emergency room".

I have always liked games on TV, when I was young it was "Intervilles" (games beetween teams from two cities) and ""Jeux sans frontières" (games between teams from European countries). And now I watch the French version of Survivor and Pekin Express (race beetween 8 teams doing hitch-hiking and games).

With my children , I watch "(Total) Whipeout" and serie "Make it or break it".

When I answered yesterday, I had a very big oversight because during all the existence of this TV game (from 1980 to 1984 ),I was completely hooked to "La Chasse aux Trésors" (Treasure Hunt). Two candidates were in a television studio in Paris, searching hints in books ang giving instructions to the presenter who is on the field (usually abroad and sometime in France) in a chopper in order to find the "treasure".
OK , OK, I admit, I had a little (big?) crush fctre for Philippe de Dieuleveult, the presenter in the field.

I always have loved TV games. I used to watch too "La Course autour du Monde" (race around World) in which eight competitors from different French speacking countries were travelling around the world; they had one week to make a report about something in the country where they were and the films received marks.

And I still watch a TV Game created in 1990 (I think) called "Fort Boyard". The game take place in this old fort located on the sea at some miles from the coast. A team (at the beginning of unknown persons playing for themselves and now of celebrities playing for associations) do several games (physical ones, aquatics ones, answering enigmas, or searching codes on papers located on snakes or spiders, ...) in order to find the keys for opening the treasure room and the name code giving them the posibility to take the treasure ("old coins" specific to the Fort).

I also watched some other adventure games which had only one season time of life like "Le trésor de Pago-Pago" (Island Pago-Pago Treasure ) or "La piste de Xapatan" (Xapatan trail).

All these games came from the idea of Jacques Antoine.

Boy Bionika your tv "adventure" games sounds more interesting then ours :lol: (Just my own opinion ne432 ) , but I do remember we had our own version of "La Chasse aux Trésors" was Treasure Hunters; ten teams of three solve puzzles and complete challenges in hopes of solving the ultimate puzzle and winning the grand prize. Teams travel across the United States and Europe in search of seven "artifacts" which when assembled will "lead to the key. Find the key, and find the treasure." The challenges and puzzles are spliced with American history, and the ultimate goal is to find a hidden treasure, leading the show to be compared on various occasions to the film National Treasure.

Our version of "La Course autour du Monde" was The Amazing Race teams of two people, who have some form of a preexisting personal relationship, race around the world in competition with other teams. Contestants travel to and within multiple countries in a variety of transportation modes, including airplanes, hot-air balloons, helicopters, trucks, bicycles, taxicabs, car, jeepneys, trains, buses, boats, and by foot.
The Six Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman

Lately, when I can't sleep, I find myself enjoying curling up on the sofa and watching late night reruns of Law and Order: Criminal Intent.
Oh...and am positively addicted to The Big Bang Theory!

A few more:

Then - Partridge Family, Brady Bunch, Emergency, Lost in Space

Now - Restaurant Stakeout and late night reruns of a (rather silly) sitcom that I'm not sure anyone ever watched when it was on in prime time (although it did last at least 3 seasons), called 'Til Death.
