I should note- I remember the 1985 Fall Preview issue of TV Guide, which included a page on MacGyver and my teenage self thought that Richard Dean Anderson was quite possibly the most beautiful man I'd ever seen. I know, me and Marge Simpson's sisters. What can I say, it was the 1980s. I also had a thing for Andrew McCarthy.

While I would not nominate Magnum PI for one of the worst shows, I will take any excuse to link to this:

Han Solo PI

Nobody better say Dallas, or I will cut you.

My wife would leave me in a NY minute for a day with Tom Selleck....but then again she'd leave me for Daffy Duck..

Ah, the 1980s- the final decade where mustaches could be cool, and not just a punchline.

Mr. Belvedere was a terrible, terrible show.

Christina Applegate is a very funny lady. She was a riot in Anchorman.

Alf was terrible.

Terrific, and often forgotten, was Buffalo Bill.

i had to google 90's tv shows, and that's where i saw mcgyver and walker....not much of a tv watcher.
80's? i'd have to google again.

Some might disagree - but IMO - Worst of 1980's was "The Dukes of Hazzard"

There were many really good shows, but I'd say "Dallas" starring Larry Hagman as JR was a classic - a must watch on Friday evenings -

followed by "Falcon Crest" starring/Jane Wyman

That's awesome. When I saw Anchorman, with my husband and brother, we were the only three people in the theater (yay for 11AM showings). I have never heard the two of them laugh so hard.
