Probably the one of the worst shows ever made: Small Wonder. Even at a young age I was fascinated by the cheese factor and I just couldn't stop watching.

Both Fantasy Island and the Love Boat started in the 70s but were still on in the 80s I continued to watch despite how bad they had gotten.
TJ Hooker
Dallas I watched it but NEVER liked it.... why did I do that??? Why do I still do that... it's an addiction I tell ya...
Growing Pains
The A Team
Knight Rider

I think I still like everything I used to back then. Sure some shows might not have stood the test of time, but I can still enjoy the nostalgia factor.
But to answer the question, it'll probably be some 80s cartoons. Great at the time, but as a 30 something, the storyline really has to be good to keep my attention. ;D

The 80s had the BEST TV EVER !!! Silver Spoons, "The Ricker..." At least the 80s kid stars were actually KIDS. So we grew up with them. Remember how much Ricky Shroeder changed over the course of the show?? Who can forget the horrifying transformation of the Facts of Life girls. I loved Out of this World (that idea was around long before That's So Raven lol) Different Strokes, u name it...it was all great.

Speaking of Growing Pains, who remembers Brad Pitt when he made an appearance on Growing Pains? I thought he was related to Rob Lowe back then.

I remember Leo 8-P and Matthew Perry on GP but not Brad Pitt....

'The Greatest American Hero' for me. This show was introduced in 1981 to fill the void that was left when shows like 'Wonder Woman' went off the air. It was super cheese, but very entertaining.
I love how Ralph would scream with that scared look on his face whenever he flew ;D

I watched them again when it was released on DVD I do enjoy a good superhero show... I especially enjoyed this because Ralph H. ;) wasn't your average super hero. He was joe average and even after getting the super suit life wasn't perfect for him.. We always think if only we could ....then everything would be better... Now we know that's not necessarily true.

I always wondered just how good would he have been in that suit had he not lost the instructions lol
He never could get the hang of that invisibility trick ;D
