In no particular order here are the shows I miss, the most (in recent seasons):
Education of Max Bickford
First Monday
(the prior two [2] cancellations last season almost caused me to give up watching TV)
Greg the Bunny
The Family Guy (only started watching once Fox had given it the death sentence)
MTVs Undergrads (very funny for those of us finishing college when it aired)
I have to agree with Rogue with Gina Gershon, but Snoops wasnt her best acting. I would have to vote for her role in "Cocktail" or "Face/Off". But without question she is PHAT.

Good call on Bosom Buddies. I'd love to see that on DVD.
A few years ago there was a really good stretch of Saturday morning cartoons: The Tick, Freakazoid, Animaniacs, Pinky and the Brain. I don't remember what got me to start watching them, but it was good stuff

I already miss Will Ferrell on SNL. I also miss Upright Citizens Brigade, but Amy Poehler can now be seen on SNL. Ooo, how cosmic! And what was with the cancellation of Strangers With Candy? Bad ratings, or just a dumb move on Comedy Central's part? That network tends to do stupid things, which leads me to my ultimate most-missed show of all...
MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000!!!
First, Comedy Central decides to axe it, and then Sci-Fi pulls the plug. In a perfect world, a show like that would never get cancelled. And now, all my old Comedy Central episodes I taped have disappeared, leaving me to the mercy of Rhino and their periodic releases. I fear there are some eps that I'll never see again, like "Monster A-Go-Go", "Teenage Zombie", the immortal Godzilla and Gamera movies, etc. Makes me sad, so sad...

Tour of Duty was a great show.
Actually, I'd love to see the Vietnam War get a proper treatment, possibly a la Steven Spielberg.
Something along the lines of what Spielberg did for WWII in Saving Private Ryan or Band of Brothers type of thing for Vietnam would be fantastic I feel.

It was inovative at the time (1982) in that it ran with no laugh track.
The shows are available on VHS. (no DVD yet I believe)
I think it was over two tapes with three episodes on each tape.
I'm sure you could find these at Amazon or where ever else you might find a large selection of VHS.
