Quincy M. E.

[Pryderi]

Are there any shows on today that are similar to it?

1. God, it seems like it was just yesterday when that show was on

I didn't realize how old it was until I watched the video and saw the 35 year old cars.

2. Loved that show,

it was on in reruns during my lunch hour for a few years, and most of the staff at the funeral home would sit down to watch and discuss it.

3. All in the Family and Quincy always had some great social and political issues. n/t

4. The show "Lou Grant" had even more of a liberal educational bend to it.

I love these old Jewish actors.

9. Both Lou Grant and Quincy were the best of the best of 70's-80's dramas!

[Aristus]

5. For me, 'Quincy's social lesson was the way

Quincy treated Sam Fujiyama as a respected equal. Even as a little boy, brought up by socially progressive parents, that made a good impression on me.

6. I used to love that show! n/t

7. I loved Quincy - and Lou Grant!

Wish they had more shows like that now (how old am I? ). They have entire episodes on YouTube, watched Quincy recently, as well as Lou Grant (though my grandmother worried that Lou Grant might give me bad dreams... )and The Odd Couple... These shows have stood the test of time.

10. I can watch an old Odd Couple and it still makes me laugh!!!

Not many old shows do, but that one certainly does!

11. As a little kid, I had a huge crush on Oscar Madison.

He also gave me decorator tips for my bedroom!

13. Not all shows stand up to the test of time, but Jack Klugman's shows certainly do

I wouldn't mind watching them all night...

8. I know i still have ties from back then

the large broad flammable ones, with the patterns designed to camouflage any unfortunate stains from lunch...

12. Just watched a few episodes on Hulu.

It's amazing how many familiar faces pop up on this show.

In the Heat of the Night was also excellent.

[Rhiannon12866]

14. Is "In the Heat of the Night" available there, too?

I'll have to check it out, since I used to work with CBS, and that was one of the shows I'd write about. I agree that it was a terrific show...

[Riftaxe]

15. Netflix has all the seasons

If you watch carefully you can watch the dead come to life in a later episode

They had loyalty to their actors, even if a complete disrespect for continuity
