    Me and my sister used to get left home alone on a Friday or Saturday evening I think, we got given snacks and sweets and pop and got to watch 321(god awful quiz) but after that came Magnum PI, in all his bristling top lip marvellousness. Fantastic. Used to love the repeats of the Rockford Files too, and Airwolf with Stringfellow Hawk. Mmmmm nostalgia.

    As a kid my favourite tv show would have to be "Battle of the Planets"

    That was on when I was about 5 years old and I loved it. A few years ago I downloaded an episode. It makes no sense. The show actually makes no sense. But I think that's clear in the intro. Aliens from galaxy's beyond space.

    When I was very young like 7 or 8, I used to love Top Cat and then when I stopped watching cartoons, I started watching shows like Sgt. Bilko. Nothing strange there but I just read the following on Wiki:
    The Bilko persona was borrowed by the Hanna-Barbera animation studio for its television cartoon series Top Cat, which drew on elements from The Phil Silvers Show. Maurice Gosfield from the original platoon voiced Benny the Ball. Hokey Wolf was another Hanna-Barbera production that borrowed heavily from The Phil Silvers Show. The episode of The Flintstones that introduced Dino gave the pet dinosaur a Sgt. Bilko-styled voice and character. After this atypical debut, Dino never spoke again. Another episode recruited Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble into the army, where they were conned by an unnamed Bilko-like character into becoming astronaut test pilots.

    Makes sense so that I was drawn to the two shows now.
