catesta Posted June 3, 2008 Report Posted June 3, 2008 WGN is now going by WGN America and running what they call "Outta Sight Retro Nights". Two hours each night of these classic shows.... Taxi WKRP Barney Miller Mary Tyler Moore Welcome Back Kotter Reminds me of what TV Land used to be. Only problem is, I can't tell if it's just for this week only or if it is going to be an on going thing. Quote
Joe G Posted June 3, 2008 Report Posted June 3, 2008 You have no idea how long I've been sitting here waiting for this. Quote
catesta Posted June 3, 2008 Author Report Posted June 3, 2008 BARNEY MILLER! Hell yeah, and tonight is the "hash brownies" episode. Quote

Dan Gould Posted June 3, 2008 Report Posted June 3, 2008 It's only this week, but looking at the schedule on their site, there are some classic Taxi episodes (Latka the swinging bachelor; a couple with Jim Ignatowski) tomorrow night and Friday has the classic "As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly" WKRP episode. I have a feeling though that Welcome Back Kotter will remind me that "up your nose with a rubber hose" is best appreciated at the age of 8. Quote
Stefan Wood Posted June 3, 2008 Report Posted June 3, 2008 Will WKRP have the original music as aired? That's the real question. Quote

Yeah, I was in my teens the first time around, and Welcome Back Kotter seemed to be typical mindless sitcom stuff to me. But WKRP and Mary Tyler Moore were classics. And of course, Jim Ignatowski remains my own personal idol! Quote

Still fun to check it out though, if for nothing else the theme song and to remember 86th Street back in the day. Quote
