Mine is probably MASH before they introduced Potter and it was more comedy based.

Although I did watch a lot of I Love Lucy, looking back now, I dont think I would enjoy it.

What is an "old person" show? Do you mean a show with old people in it - like The Golden Girls or Grace and Frankie?

The Honeymooners

All In The Family was great but went off the rails after - SPOILER - Edith died. If that show had been more consistent it might have been my top choice.

Munsters, and Three Stooges are great.

Hogan's Heroes was solid.

There's a ton I could choose but I think Honeymooners takes it.

Cheers. I consider that an "old person show" since I remember my parents never missing an episode as a kid, and no one thinks of your mom and dad as young people (even though mine were in their mid-late 20s during that time period)

The Twilight Zone if that counts...I don't know if I think of it as an "old person show" like some of the others mentioned. It's one of my favourite shows though, anyway.

Other than that, Get Smart.

100% agree.

Remember the one where he reunites with an old buddy But is too afraid to say hes a mere bus driver and instead says hes in charge of the damn thing, and they go out to eat at a super fancy restaurant(one he cant afford)?

Shows older people normally would watch


By that definition, Murder She Wrote. Or if you want older show, maybe All in the Family. Granted, if your definition was just "classic tv" then either Twilight Zone, the 60s Batman (starring Adam West), I Dream of Jeannie, or Bewitched.

Murder, She wrote was really good. I watched the whole series on NetFlix a few years ago...

Yeah, I binged as much of the run as they might have had at the time. I think they added more, but I'm not sure where I left off and had trouble getting back into it (especially since the later seasons decline in quality; not sure if the run-time was shorter or something)

It might have been they were running low on ideas...

I think when Twilight Zone was brand new it was more appealing to a younger demographic. Now, sure at this point most that grew up with it are 60+ years old at least. I mean going by the definition of that every show will become an "old person" show once 50+ years pass.
