Wasn't alive then so I can only go by syndication. Star Trek was over. It was before MTM and All in the Family. I'd probably go with Hawaii-5-0

Nope.

This would make you about the 7th oldest on this board.

Gotta go with Laugh In and Mission Impossible.

I remember watching Name of the Game. It had three stars: Gene Barry, Robert Stack, and Tony Franciosa (he played a muckraking reporter for a magazine called "People".) Tony Franciosa was my favorite of the three; he did all the hipster assignments. Susan St. James played the secretary, and she was pretty cute back then (she must have been 22, at least).

Name of the Game was a great series, at least my parents loved it -- I was a little young and was probably in bed most of the time...

I was in 6th grade, and my folks wouldn't let us watch Laugh-In or Love, American Style--thinking that the skirt-chasing and sexual innuendo humor was too much...

My favorite hour was probably That Girl/Bewitched...

I thought I was old, but I actually was not alive yet either.

Although one of my earliest TV memories is President Ford making a speech, so that dates me.

I AGREE!!..Those H50 reruns are fantastic!...Jack Lord IS the ElVIS of tv!!..He's way too cool!!..and that hair..wow!! Its the best i've seen since Gary Sandy on WKRP In Cincinnatti!

The funny thing about watching H50 is the "looping" is really bad on those reruns..All the sound effects are out of sync with what's on the screen but that's part of the fun

BOOK 'EM DANNO!!
