The Pink Panther Show was an incredible memory that ran for over a decade, had some of the grooviest music going, a great cast of spin-off shorts, and one of the most laid-back central characters this side of a butchered Steve Martin remake.
Perhaps one of the cheesiest concepts ever for a television show, but they undeniably drew an incredible amount of star power. And as silly as it was Battle of the Network Stars was around for over a decade. Travel down memory lane to dunk tanks, tug-o-war, and Simon Says.
"Dr. David Banner: physician; scientist. Searching for a way to tap into the hidden strengths that all humans have. Then an accidental overdose of gamma radiation alters his body chemistry. And now when David Banner grows angry or outraged, a startling metamorphosis occurs. The creature is driven by rage and pursued by an investigative reporter. The creature is wanted for a murder he didn't commit. David Banner is believed to be dead, and he must let the world think that he is dead, until he can find a way to control the raging spirit that dwells within him."

"Steve Austin, astronaut. A man barely alive. Gentlemen, we can rebuild him. We have the technology. We have the capability to build the world's first bionic man. Steve Austin will be that man. Better than he was before. Better, stronger, faster."
A sitcom with an incredibly high level of "rewatchability": Gilligan's Island. With a great theme song, some totally bizarre plot lines, and a concept ripped off from classic novels of Romance and swashbuckling, the characters were fun, stupid and engaging at the same time. Some fantastic episodes and a really fun show to grow up with.
