What's Your Favorite TV Series Of All Time?

[SPQR]

No one has mentioned Archie Bunker in America and Alf Garnet in U.K.

Great period stuff and wish that kinda stuff was allowed now.

I do not really care about all this, so I do not have a "favorite Tv serie of all time". But about 10 years ago or so I really enjoyed a british TV Show called "Hammer". All white, no muds and not too Jewey.

I remember that movie. It begins with Montgomery's character as a liberal anti. There is one scene where a White man chides her for being a lefty, and then asks her how she would react if a nigger attacked her. "What are you going to do? Yell 'Four hundred years of oppression'? Start singing 'We Shall Overcome'?" The odd thing is, his character was not portrayed as villainous at all. Such a character would not appear in any movie today, when propaganda is too important to contain any realism.

As for TV series, I liked the Rockford Files, a quintessential 70s show. Even the spic cop talked like a White man. James Garner was an excellent actor; very natural and adept at going from comedy to drama.

Right on. I missed out on some of them growing up, only to find them later via the net. Only Fools and Horses is a great sitcom. Worth downloading all of them.
