Anyone else watch the reruns? I've started watching it on roku. Really brings me back to a pleasant carefree time.

Never liked it. The whole family seemed weird and unreal. Kind of "Stepfordy". Creepy! The Addams Family was more understandable and way less creepy.

Yes that's a good old show too. Reminds me if simpler times.

Back in the day, I had a REAL “thing” for Mary Tyler Moore. I watch reruns of the Dick Van Dyke show… and still get tingles. She was such a gorgeous talented lady.

I remember watching a story about the actor that played Eddie Haskell who eventually became a police officer after the show. He pulled over a drug driver. The drunk driver was abusive until he saw it with the Eddy Haskell’s actor. The driver laft & put out his wrists and said arrest me. He said now he will tell all his friends that he was arrested by Eddie Haskelll.

In June of 1961 after my freshman year in college I met a girl who had just graduated high school who looked like a clone of MTM. I met her before the Dick Van Dyke show first aired in October of that year and had never seen MTM. We dated exclusively for a year.

I remember the TV shows for children in the 1950s and the reruns of old Western movies at that time. Tom Mix, Hopalong Cassidy, Gene Autry and Roy Rogers but never wanted to rewatch any of them.

My now 55 year old son loved Leave it to Beaver and enjoys watching reruns of that show. .

Reruns of Three's Company, Seinfeld, Frasier, Friends, The Bob Newhart Show, and even Happy Days are some old sitcoms I have watched.

One of my all-favorites! You know Ken Osmond died not too long ago.

I did not know that so I looked up his bio. He was falsely believed to have died in Vietnam similar as Jerry Mathers rumored to have died in the Vietnam war. Jerry Mathees stated that Ken Osmond was the best actor in the show because he was completely different then the Eddie Haskell character.
