That you watched growing up, that you have introduced your kids to. (kinda got this idea from a FB post last night)

I would watch Saved by the bell with the kids, before they head off to school, when I was working midnights.

Other than that, if it is not on Disney, my kids wont watch it. They prolly wouldnt like:

Home Improvement
Family Matters
Full House
Family Ties
Step by Step
Night Court

I know what you mean. The only channel my girls will watch is Disney. If the shows don't include wizards, mermaids, ravens, cruise ships, and kids who apparently are more adult-like than their parents....my kids won't watch it.

Hell, even Disney is iffy for my 5 year old a times. Nickelodeon isn't the greatest with some of the stuff they run!

Any Griffith show. I am 27 and and I loved it when I was a kid. I also think little rascles tv shows should be manditory viewing as well.

I posted this somewhere on here before, but I'm recreating TGIF in my family. I only have a 10 month old, but when the time comes, it's happening.

Boy Meets World - Full House - Family Matters - Step by Step shall be watched and enjoyed by my kids dammit.

Don't forget the obligatory chubby, moronic TV dad who is married to the smoking hot wife.

I hate to break it to you, but...

Full House
Family Matters
Step by Step
Boy Meets Word

...are all horrible shows and you're not doing your kids any favors by trying to make them re-live your own childhood.

My kids will watch All in the Family sometimes with me. I just hope they don't go to school and start calling other kids chincs, spics, spooks, etc. They also like watching Saved By the Bell, Urkle (I forget the name of the show), & Full House in the mornings.

Which is great, but has nothing to do with what cartoons she watched.
