And just where in the heck is Chester Goode in that picture?
I can see him right now running through town hollering "Mr. Dillon, Mr. Dillon, JoeProBono left me out of the dang picture" ;^)

As a 12 year old, I found Batman particularly interesting every time Cat Woman was tied up...

Did you know:
* Cheers had an old-time radio grandfather---co-creator James Burrows is the son of Abe Burrows, eventually a Broadway writing legend but once the co-creator (with star Ed Gardner) and original co-writer (with Gardner) of Duffy's Tavern, perhaps the first situation comedy (of sorts) centered around a downtown bar, albeit one that made Cheers resemble the pub in the Waldorf-Astoria, and a show that blueprinted just about any fabled television bar, whether recurring sketches (Jackie Gleason's famous Joe the Bartender sketches were practically Duffy's Tavern derivatives, right down to Frank Fontaine's Crazy Guggenheim being an explicit cop of Duffy's deceptive nitwit Finnegan) or full shows (including All in the Family's offspring, Archie Bunker's Place).
* M*A*S*H also could be called a Duffy's offspring---M*A*S*H mastermind Larry Gelbart got his comedy start writing for Duffy's Tavern . . . as a precocious teenager.

Though I don’t know, I think the television season was much longer in days of yore. I liked watching the beginning of Combat! starring Vic Morrow. Just once I wanted the bomb blasts to cover the entire screen.

I'm surprised
The Twilight Zone didn't make the list myself. I'm glad, though, that
Gunsmoke didn't---the original radio show was
ten times as good as its television offspring and probably one of the three most intelligently-written and intelligently-acted Westerns of either medium.
The others? Frontier Gentleman, and a dead heat between Fort Laramie---absolutely no relation to the eventual television hit Laramie, and starring Raymond Burr pre-Perry Mason---and the too-short-lived but brilliant James Stewart vehicle, The Six Shooter.
Bonanza may have been entertaining but it doesn't belong in the aforesaid league. (Come to think of it, neither did The Lone Ranger.) As if much of anything really does.
