If you could design your own prime-time, weeknight teevee schedule comprised of shows from past eras that you loved, what would a typical week look like? I realize that it's possible to watch some of the old shows via dvds and the web, but there are lot that are hard to find, and for the purposes of this exercise, let's pretend that this is your own personal retro channel for which you are the programming director.. Here is mine:
