Frank you're a man of my own tv taste, because I really enjoy watching those classic tv shows from the 50's, 60's, and 70's (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I recently picked up the season 4 DVD set of Mr. Ed, plus Season 1 of The Rockford Files. I'm hoping they'll release the old Casey Jones tv series from the 1950's on DVD. I can remember as a kid watching those reruns on tv after school.

I received my High Chapparal and The Baron DVD series order today.

I had to watch a few episodes of The High Chapparal as I missed this great series.
I am sure you recognise some of these characters of the High Chaparral.
Some of the first episodes were 30 minutes playing time.

Another great series from the 60's/70's was The Baron with Steve Forrest.
Don't know why this series was stopped.

I just watched an episode of The Baron tonight.
I think it's a American version of The Saint.
Similar sort of storylines.

I bought 2 more series today.
The High Chaparral Complete Series and The Baron Complete Series.
These are not official releases but are available to collectors.

Don't know why The Baron series ended.
Always liked the theme music.



I liked The Baron Frank...great series (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumbup.gif)

Yesterday I watched some episodes of The Baron series.
The theme music has always been a favourite.
One of those catchy themes that stick in your mind.

I also been watching some of The High Chaparral series.
I always thought the theme music to this series was a cover of Telstar by The Tornados.

This week on ITV 4 Batman and The Fall Guy have a re-run.
2 more of my favourite shows.
The tv programmes of today are nothing like the 60's and 70's.

Today I watched some of my favourite tv series.
2 episodes of Bonanza, 1 episode of Incredible Hulk and 2 episodes of The Fugitive.
A lot better than the rubbish on ITV and BBC today.

Last week I started buying the Dallas DVD's.
Tonight I watched 2 episodes from the 1st season.
What a pleasure it was to watch this programme again.
On th 2nd episode Southfork had snow.
I thought Texas never had snow.
Don't know if was 1978 or 1979 winter they had snow.

Last I watched the Dallas episode Bypass.
This was about Jock Ewing having a Bypass operation.
No sooner Jock had his bypass operation he let out to go home in a wheel chair just after his op.
I don't know how long a time passed between the operation and his going home time.
A bypass operation does not heal that quick.
Did the script writers get their facts right about this?
I understood bypass operation takes a long time to heal.

The last few Saturday evenings I have been watching 2 episodes of Dallas.
Some of the early episodes I don't remember watching.
I was surprised on how short Lucy Ewing was, even she was a little raver.
Most of the Dallas DVD's I have now are on Region 2.

I also have been watching some episodes of The Fugitive, Alias Smith and Jones, The Rockford Files and some of The Incredible Hulk series.

You can't beat old TV series for pastime viewing.
I watched another 4 episodes of Dallas on Friday and Saturday.
Yesterday afternoon I watched 3 episodes of Bonanza.
I never get tired of hearing the Bonanza theme music.

This morning I received the Thunderbirds box set.
This is a book type of box.
At last I could read the titles is in English.
According to release date this was released in 1999.
I don't think it is digitally remastered.
I have not watched this series for awhile and thought the theme music was a little different.
Might be because it's not remastered and don't sound so loud.
I watched the first 2 episodes.
I always loved the theme music to this series.

There might be website that plays High Chaparral like the Bonanza series.
I bought a new set of High Chaparral.
A better recordings.
My Bonanza box is just about full.
I don't know if the whole series of Bonanza will be released with this collection.
There is 14 years of this series.

I just found this site for watching High Chaparral http://www.ovguide.com/tv/the_high_chaparral.htm

Today I received The Rockford Files Complete series plus movies set.
This is not a official release.
This is like the High Chaparral set recorded on Sky TV.
The quality is good so far and there is a menu for the episodes.
I know it's better to have original studio release but some are too expensive.
This set comes from MyOffer site and it took a week to receive this order.

I remember watching this late evening time.
