Mine was Power Rangers, in particular the MMPR franchise, but after the Thunderzords were destroyed, I quit watching them.

Today? It's crime drama like NCIS, NCIS: Los Angeles, Hawaii Five-0, Blue Bloods, and CSI:

As a kid, what was your favorite show? And what's yours today?

That's quite a list. Off topic-- my favorite movie from that region is the "Pink Panther". Funny as #@$!, and worth every buck.
 
Yep, its a big list.. I used to watch a lot of TV :)
I'd have to say "Terrahawks" though, always used to love Gerry Anderson's Animatronic stuff!

Like Pink Panther.. but only the films..... go figure :)

Rin-tin-tin! Loved that show growing up. Gosh, how times have changed since then.

Ghostbusters! Love those movies. Oddly enough, after the Thunderzords were destroyed, I thought they were done, but fast forward about 15 yrs later, and I'm seeing the Ninja and Shogun Megazords, and I'm like WTF? Thought they were done?
 
Daniel Boone, Logan's Run, Batman (the old 60's tv show), the very old TV series Superman, Dick Turpin, and the 70's "The Invisible Man" with David McCullum... same actor was in Sapphire and Steele (that was real spooky)...

It's an old show from the 50's . I thought it was very funny. Special affect has sure come a long way since this show. Flash Gordon was fun to watch because it was so fake looking.
