Those were great years of TV-Mannix, Mission Impossible,
The FBI, Hawaii 5 OH. About 15 years ago we cancelled Dish network and about 10 years ago stopped watching network TV.
We have Hulu Plus and buy movies that we like.

We cancelled Dish in 2008 one week after Obama was elected. I had hated Hollywood for 30 years and finally decided to make my move.

I have all of those shows you mentioned on dvd. Also McCloud, McMillian & Wife, Rockford Files and Columbo to name a few.

Hollywood was great from the 1930’s up through the 1960’s and I even like some of the stuff in the 70’s like the shows we mentioned. At some point in the 1980’s they really began to sicken me with the political correctness.

You can probably get all of these shows and more for free over the air with an antenna - with the digital subchannels there are multiple classic TV networks airing these shows. Many shows I had never heard of before that were made long before I was born I have been watching and I must stay they are better than most of the new shows put on now in my opinion. I’ve been watching Perry Mason re-runs on a network called “MeTV”. I believe they have some of those other shows on the air as well. I don’t pay for TV when you can get several dozen networks over the air for free these days.
