pick one, but only one

if you could see only one episode of each show from your childhood which ones would you choose?


Quincy-the punk rocker episode "i dig pain, it's the feeling in my brain'

Happy Days (this one is harder) 'go home jailbirds featuring Suzi Quatro as Leather Tuscadero, or Potsey sings 'put your head on my shoulder' or wasn't there one where Richie was cool, and Fonze was square?

A -Team-erm...all A-Teams were the same

Love Boat-two words Adrianne Barbo

Fantasy Island-See Love Boat

Dukes of Hazzard-erm see A-team

Differn't strokes- Arnold fights the Gooch, or finds a gun

Three's company-'Chrissy's gonna have a baby'

Good Times-Easy, the one where the dad dies. It was so powerful to my young eyes, that I thought that actor was dead for years, until coming to America anyway.

you?

I think the "I love pain, it's a feeling in my brain" was actually from the punk rock band that made an appearance on "CHIPs". The name of the band was "Mayhem" and they were into stealing and drug taking and other things punk rock before Ponch and Jon reigned them in. At the end of that episode of CHIPs, Ponch performed at a club doing a fine rendition of "Celebration."

And yeah, that episode of CHIPs would be my favorite. Or maybe it was Quincy.

I think I dig pain WAS Chips, but wasn't there a Quincy punk episode as well? As a punk rock fan at the time, I felt very misrepresented by those clowns.
