It'll be interesting to hear from some of the older posters here. I'm sure I've jogged a memory or two with that list like TFL did with Lancelot Link did for me.

Ya know, after 56 years of television, when I heard some of these themes, some of them not since they were aired, brought a tear to my eyes. Lassie and Captain Kangaroo for starters. Makes me aware of my mortality...
The essence of the mind is not in what it thinks, but how it thinks. Faith is the surrender of our mind; of reason and our skepticism to put all our trust or faith in someone or something that has no good evidence of itself. That is a sinister thing to me. Of all the supposed virtues, faith is not.

Always question all authorities because the authority you don't question is the most dangerous... except me, never question me.

Probably because those shows are twice your age or older.
