These days we seem to have more repeats than original programming though that's not surprising given the number of channels they have to fill . What programs haven't you seen for years and you'd like to see again.
Maybe I'm looking back with rose coloured specs, but I'd like to see reruns of

Hill Street Blues,
Mork and Mindy,
Tutti Frutti.

What about you?

Superstars. Loved this programme as a kid and never seen it repeated. It made household names of some stars of lesser-publicised sports like squash, judo, pole vaulting and rugby league. Impossible to imagine today's superstars going at it (or being allowed to take part by their employer) hell for leather for the sake of pride and a crappy cup. Loved David Coleman and Ron Pickering too.
Loved that too, I still remember Brian Jacks the Judo guy from around 1980. He hammered all the well known names such as Daley Thompson and John Conteh. His level of fitness was amazing.

Well, in response to the OP wink , they're now rerunning Tutti Fruiti , and in spite of my best memories, it's pretty crap IMHO. Nice for a bit of nostalgia and to see the likes of Emma Thompson and Robbie Coltrane in their youth. But pretty boring.
Maybe I don't want to see Mork and Mindy an Hill Street Blues again, shatter my illusions. Nostalgia isn't what it used to be!
