I get nostalgic for the older TV shows like the Honeymooners,Taxi and Barney Miller. They were more about relationships and was like visiting old friends. The cast of those shows was excellent and I could never forget the scene where Norton takes Ralph temperature and says it's 111, after holding a lighter to see the reading. Still cracks me up.

The Sopranos was must see television in it's heyday. Still feel sad, that James Gandofini has left us. An iconic role, of a lifetime.

I really loved Law and order with Jerry Orbach, and like the crime shows like Major Crimes and Rizzoli and Isles. Sasha Alexander's mother-in-law is, Sophia Loren. I enjoy Blue Bloods, but mostly watch sports, and TCM classic movies.

Watched Abbott and Costello last night on tape. It started with an abbreviated, "Who's on First", routine. Cleverly written and masterfully performed.

Fortunately, I kept my old tapes when I moved down here, and pop one in, when there is nothing I want to watch. There's also "youtube", to watch episodes of Barney Miller and The Honeymooners in case someone doesn't have the tapes/DVD's.

BTW - There will never be another Johnny Carson, A class act and very funny man who entertained us, for twenty years. He is the gold standard for late night talk show hosts. IMHO
