Family Addiction
Confession time.
My wife and children are rapped up in this multiple nights a week. At times, they even get me caught up in it.
Its the Andy Griffith show. It's their favorite show and they watch it all the time, for atleast a year now. Netflix . Isn't that crazy.
I figure we're the only ones still watching the legendary Barney Fife on a regular occasion.....
Maybe not....
Anybody ever battle something like this, even in 2011?

The Andy Griffith show is one of my favorites. I thought I had seen every episode of all nine seasons several times each but about a year ago I actually saw one I don't think I had seen before.
I am slowly but surely collecting each season on DVD. Sams Club has had seasons for as low as around $12 each and other places $15. I have seasons 1-4 so far.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Actually, you have seen that one. Twice. Before the memory loss.

Re: Family Addiction
Can't recall ever watching even one episode of Andy. However, I'm stuck on watching In The Heat Of The Night...15-20 years after its finale. I got introduced to it long about the year it ended while visiting relatives, ironically, in Mississippi.
Guess I'll need to sit down and actually watch an Andy episode. It seems like something I'd enjoy for someone my age...

Re: Family Addiction
Frasier is one of my current favorites. Never watched it when it was showing new episodes but love it now.
And yes, the Andy Griffith show (the first five B&W seasons) are timeless classics, along with the Dick Van Dyke show.

I don't watch sitcoms much, but when I do, I watch Andy Griffith.....
Maybe I shouldn't have used that line.
