What Tv Shows Do You Miss?

[Bobbisox1]

I loved Home Fires and they're not making another series.....
Dowton Abbey too , I know there's a film released in September

[hereIam]

Yes, it was Take you Pick Bobbi with Hughie Green, I think.

Bobbisox, surely you mean small girl? 'Little girl' gives the impression she was about 10 years old. Think she was a bit older than that :-)

[Bobbisox1]

Yes that's right and it was that girl Monica from Birmingham with him, so what was the game in the Palladium ?
I always wanted to stand behind one of those big lit up letters and go round and round when I was a kid haha

[Bobbisox1]

Sorry Ken, small ,not little ( in this PC time of ours)

I appreciate the various reasons why none of these shows are with us anymore - and some are better for it because they are perfect TV gems undiluted by additional episodes which may not have been as good -

Fawlty Towers
The Office
Extras
and others which simply stopped for a variety of reasons -

One Foot In The Grave
The Original Doctor Who
Nogin The Nog
Robinson Crusoe (every AB'er of a certain age will now be experiencing the Pavlovian response of hearing the theme in their head - da da da daaah da daaaah ...)
Hill Street Blues
NYPD Blue
The Mentalist

[melv16]

Big Jim and the Figaro Club.
The Biederbeck Affair.

[andy-hughes]

A Very Peculiar Practice - a surreal comedy shot in my home town, Newcastle Under Lyme, and some shots at the local Keele University.

I adored the sheer weirdness of having two nuns silently cavorting about over the opening credits, although their presence was never explained.

…..and for those who can't remember or are too young to know.....

I'm upto last two episodes of GOT that'll be missed also Supernatural are filming the final series (15th... wow!) I'll be totally gutted when that ends.

As for the past Telly addicts, Blackadder, Babylon5 to name a few... I'll give it a little more thought.
