Movies and TV WGN's Retro Night

eazyb81 · 07-08-2008, 11:41 AM

So apparently WGN has a new retro night theme where they are playing tv shows from the 70's and 80's on nights where there isn't a baseball game on. Last week there was a full night of WKRP in Cincinnati and Newhart, and then last night all hell broke loose - they showed two straight hours of ALF.

It seriously might have been 20 years since I last saw Gordon Shumway in all his greatness. I hope they keep this up, I love seeing shows I grew up on instead of continuous Andy Griffith reruns (nothing against the show, but I prefer some variety in my retro tv shows).

I believe there's another ALF night this week, and possibly a Family Ties night.
