Has there been a tee vee show you really loved

[Mike Nelson]

30. Gidget

... was the one I hear about most. I did not watch it originally - saw it in reruns. A single father raising one daughter. It was a cute show, nicely written, and based on a movie character. Great cast and lead Sally Field as Gidget. But viewers did not watch and it was cancelled early. Then, something strange happened. Some of the single, first season episodes were rerun that summer and it picked up steam. By the time Gidget was a "hit" show, the network had gone forward with a different schedule. The single season episodes were rerun, with much success, for years and years.
