I Love It When A Plan Comes Together

UPDATE: Forget all that old T.V. crap! Thanks to the resurgence of The Once and Future King, I now know that something far, far greater awaits us all … just over the horizon.

All hail Neil Patrick Harris!!

All this unadulterated access to electricity and television has made me all nostalgic and shit for the bittersweet couch-bound days of my youth.

In that vein, I thought it appropriate to share what I remember to be the top 10 time wasters from my youth. Is it any wonder why I was such a fan of the ladies from such an early age? (and by 'fan of the ladies,' I mean 'remained humiliatingly celibate').

10. The A-Team



With all the fucking bullets flying, and bombs falling, and cars exploding — how come nobody ever got killed in that goddamn show?

9. CHiP's



Ahh, the definition of cool. Evewn now, the term 'CHiPS' conjures only one thought — hot sexy 'Roller Boogie.'

8. Mork & Mindy



Yes, another example of the fabulous, if not always coherent, effects of cocaine. Good times, good times.

7. The Love Boat



The love boat — where old T.V. stars go to die. (in looking for this opening, I found 3 of them where Morgan Britteny was a 'special guest star', so I'm just wondering if she and any of the shows producers that she banged ever worked out).

6. Hogan's Heroes



It was because of this show that I seriously questioned why it took Allied Forces 5 years to end the war in Europe.

5. Buck Rogers



Two more words: Span. Dex.

4. Hill Street Blues



One of Mike Post's finest themes.

3. Quantum Leap



Cute show. DUUUUMB premise.

2. Magnum P.I.


1. Miami Vice



Nuff said.

    Christ, you’re old. I’m amazed you didn’t include Bonanza or I Love Lucy.
