I've stared watching the new season 5 of Arrested Development, and I can tell it's already way better than season 4. The good part is they're conscientious about recapping the necessary plot points from season 4, because I only watched that season once and have already forgotten all of it. They made a "remix" of season 4, going in chronological order, but after two episodes in which it's all Ron Howard narrating the events, I gave up. Anyhow they seem to mostly be back in form with this season. There's eight episodes out now and another eight episodes to come at a later date.

There's only one of me Matt 
To be honest when we was kids there was only three tv channels (one virtually unwatchable) and only a very short time late afternoon allotted to children's tv so basically very little choice... Although of course I had best chair...
I don't really remember my younger sister having any real taste in tv but my Dad liked Star Trek which was cool... ( Tho I think some of the very short skirts might have had something to do with it )
But I do remember the Sunday afternoon movie slot over here which is where I became addicted to movies, this is where I saw most of the Hollywood classics for the first time.. Westerns, war, drama etc..
Did you have Kung Fu Theater on Saturdays on your side of the pond? That was something we both enjoyed. Our favorite shows were the Adam West Batman series, Speed Racer (I'm going back to my youngest memories), Ultraman, The Six Million Dollar Man, and Adam 12. I remember in 1st or 2nd grade, we were asked to draw a picture of our favorite TV show -- everyone did the 9 boxes with the faces (Brady Bunch), but I did the cop car with the two cops. There's only one me, too!  But, Batman was far and away the highlight of my life back then. I can't remember watching TV with my parents, except that we were forced to watch Sonny and Cher with them every (I think it was) Friday night at 8 pm. My brother and I each had these little kid-sized rocking chairs, and we sat front and center while mom and dad were on the sofa. They loved that show.
