I absolutely loved the variety shows! It would take forever to name them but they started with the guy who had the most annoying way of talking but seemed to get every great act in the world. I know it's probably in the list @ Music Shows & Variety Shows/Specials but I'm sorta watching the Olympics and did take time to really check it out.

The Red Skelton Show had to be my absolute favorite Variety Show ever...

The HuffPost saying Hee Haw was the “Worst” shows just how ridiculous the site can be. These are all shows we will always remember. Hogan's Heroes, Lucy, Gunsmoke, Bewitched, and The Carrol Burnett Show will never be matched by modern performers.

I really, really liked Father Knows Best and I Love Lucy.

I've watched Lucy recently and it really hasn't aged well. Good slapstick but the story lines are kinda lame
I think the Honeymooners aged better

Father Knows Best was a good show. A lot of morality plays but a good strong family
Donna Reed was very similar
