In reply to the discussion: What was a favourite show/movie of your childhood that did not dissappoint when you watched [View all]crim son
(27,464 posts)25. First, you spelled "favorite" wrong. Heh.
Second, I'm Canadian so I get it. That show was "The Waltons." If I had to choose another, it'd be "Little House on the Prairie." I tried to introduce both to my children but even then, years ago, they were too dated to keep their attention. I like to think that I was nonetheless able to instill the fundamental values and compassion that I noted and loved in both shows.
P.s. I remember being totally shocked by "Three's Company." I'll turn fifty in July, which might explain that.

Never disappointed with original Andy Griffith, MTM, or any of the Newhart series.

Captain Kangaroo. I loved it as a child when it first aired back in the 50's.
