There was a weird as fuck show called Sapphire and Steel around then. I think it was a bit ahead of its time
British show. Was very bizarre and low budget in the classic BBC style. Joanna Lumley and David McCallum. I used to enjoy it but didn't know what the hell I was watching

All the guys were metals and all the chicks were gems. The beeb made great sci fi back then. Tom Baker's Dr Who and Blake's 7 were unmissable

If I win enough money to have a classic car collection, a Ferrari 308 is first in there.

Bit prior to the 80s I thought. Loved that. Was British.
Joanna Lumley and David McCullum.
Who was The Invisible Man, youse fullas forgot that one).
Oh yeah, which reminds me of The Incredible Hulk with Bill Bixby and Lou Ferigno. "Don't make me angry... you won't like me when I'm angry ..."

Quite spooky.

Because of Magnum PI? A Hyundai i30 is a faster car, that's what happened to performance.

Airwolf TV star Jan-Michael Vincent dies at 73
Airwolf TV star Jan-Michael Vincent dies at 73
NEW YORK (NYTIMES) - Jan-Michael Vincent, who became nationally recognisable on the 1980s television series Airwolf, but whose career later foundered in part because of problems with drugs and alcohol, died Feb 10 at a hospital near his home in Asheville, North Carolina. He was 73. Read more at...
Tbh I thought he was already dead.
Airwolf was farking cool. Shit I loved the 80s. CHIPs, Ateam, Magnum, Knightrider, Airwolf. So good.
Duke of Hazard, Logan's Run, Riptide, Greatest American Hero. Great back then, most are almost unwatchable now
Tried rewatching Ateam some years ago, first thing that struck me was there was a female character who appeared in a lot of the easier episodes. Completely unable to recall that from my childhood memories.
Other thing was how hammy it was, couldn’t get through more then an episode or 2 before I gave up.
The 80’s was still a golden age of tv as a kid to watch though. -

80s action shows were lots of fun but light on realism. Another 2 sci fi series I really enjoyed were Buck Rogers in the 25th century and the original Battlestar Galactica

Fuck yes!!
It’s like a repressed memory but in a good way, not a Catholic Church molested me way, when these old shows are mentioned.List to date.
A team
Knight Rider
Dukes of Hazzard
Greatest American Hero
Battlestar Galactica
Buck Rogers
Robin of Sherwood
Magnum PI
Rip Tide
Simon and Simon
The littlest Hobo
The Incredible Hulk
Air Wolf
CHiPs
Blake’s 7
Six Million Dollar Man
McGyverNot exactly 80’s but a lot of re runs of Thunderbirds, Joe 90, Captain Scarlet.
Late 80’s you had comedy classics like
Mr Bean
Married with Children
Black Adder
Father TedEdit: Mods this post probably belongs in the tv thread (or perhaps it’s own classics tv thread?)

T'was a thing of beauty, almost on a par with the 246 that preceded it.
