TV Shows


I watched a lot of TV.
(It's part of being an introvert during my childhood.)

As I posted before, these are the TV genres I like to watch:
animé, cartoon, claymation, comedy, fantasy, puppetry, sci-fi, & supermarionation/supermacromation

I was part of the Saturday Morning TV generation.

I've grouped the shows I've watched into decades and they're in quasi-chronological order.
(If we have common interest, this should take you back down memory lane.)

(This has been the most arduous recapitulative HTLM exercise I've done, to date. I'm not even sure, if my list is complete. I've provided the official websites, whenever available. If I missed an official website, let know. If the TV show currently doesn't have an official website, I hope that I've provided the best alternative website. If you feel that there's a better alternative site to what I've chosen, let me know.)

The 2 worst TV creations:
infomercials & "Reality TV"

I don't like "Reality TV" because it isn't. If it's edited it isn't real. It's just low budget improvisation fake documentary TV.
