Hi beg4ignore, nice to meet you too.
My retro TV fascination dates back to probably the 50s, old British comedies like Tony Hancock, 60s stuff like Morecambe & Wise, The Avengers, Doctor Who and many more. 70's stuff includes Alias Smith & Jones, Starsky & Hutch, Quincy, Rockford,Kojak and a lot of the old Glen Larson shows too. But once we get to the end of the 80s, my interest wanes somewhat.
As for 30s and 40s cinema, I adore The Marx Bros and Laurel & Hardy, and the original Scarface is one of my favourites too.
