I've got only two I can think of that are so memorable: 1) Hawaii 50. 2) Magnum PI. ...odd both Island programs, eh?

at least before they had to lose some time for commercials. Catchy theme (almost as good as "The Jetsons") and gags.

14. "Beauty and the Beast"....
And "Buffy the Vampire Slayer". Both were essentially morality plays without playing to specific religious belief system - a sort of non-theistic moralism if you will. Not to mention both series were well written works of character exploration (IMO)... Then again, I may be taking this thread more seriously than intended. I blame the vodka! ;)

It sets the tone for the historic period and the utter weirdness of the plot.
