We always watched the Jack Benny Show, the Perry Como Show, the Ed Wynn Show, the Jimmy Durante Show, the Red Skeleton Show, and many others when I was a kid. Wholesome entertainment for the whole family. There’s crap on TV nowadays.

I don't know about the others but have seen the Jack Benny Show and Red Skelton being rebroadcast on some channels. Recently saw Freddie the Freeloader’s College Reunion episode and I couldn't stop laughing. You don't see talent like that around much anymore.

I like Carol Burnett myself.

She does a good Captain Kirk.

I love listening to Sirius channel 148.
They play classic radio shows all day long.

Recently while listening to the Jack Benny show,
I was surprised that they were calling Jack Benny “Jackson”

I have never heard he had a nickname of Jackson.

I catch the "Gunsmoke" and "Wagon Train" reruns on INSP.

Well, the b&w "Gunsmoke" episodes, anyway...oh, and "Have Gun, Will Travel"
