Nightingales with Suzanne Pleshette about the hookers turned nurses. The best show ever and I miss it alot.
I don't know if anyone remembers Tattingers with Stephen Collins, MaryBeth Hurt, and Blythe Danner, but I loved that one too.

The Class!
And I really still wish that any of the old Nickelodeon stuff had still succeeded and was on. Are You Afraid of the Dark? would still be awesome to watch today.

Brooklyn Bridge -
Well acted family show about Jewish family in Brooklyn in the late 1950s. How can you cancel Peter Friedman, Amy Aquino, Marion Ross, Louis Zorich and Danny Gerard?
