Enjoying the Classics

Mockingbird · 07-10-2009, 08:21 AM

One thing I have liked about internet TV was looking up the old classic shows. The other night my son and I was having a blast watching old shows from the 60-70's. Mostly robot stuff like Johnny Sukko and the Giant Robot and some old Ultra Man stuff. Man I forgot how silly that stuff was but it kept us glues to the set. Love Internet TV hope it surpasses regular TV

Oh me, too. Do we have a list onsite of the different webpages you can go to in order to watch internet shows? I know of hulu.com and freemoviesonline.com in addition to the major networks, like; ABC, NBC, CBS & Sci-fi, to name a few. Oh yeah, youtube. But, are there others that I'm not aware of. Thanks.

Yes, I have had wonderful time too watching the classics through the Internet. I can't have enough of Hitchcock's films.

For the millions in the US who still don't have high speed internet available, Retro TV has been a nice addition to OTA viewing.

Except they don't carry a lot of 'retro' TV. a lot of 1980s shows and one 2006 Horror series and that's about it. they only have one show in Black n White. they don't even carry the Munsters, or Andy Griffith, or Patty Duke or Mister Ed. all those are on Fox or THIS TV. i really expected more 'classic' from Retro TV.

Maybe the YMMV is applicable to different RTV networks. i know our own sucks majorly; not even a retromercial as stated on their website.

From what I know, Retro is still the best of the classic choices. Nick was the first betrayal, and then TV Land became a joke. I wish This TV would carry even more. I'm loving watching Patty Duke and Outer Limits. Sleuth has some of the old detective stories. Is American Life still out there? We used to get that and it was great. Comcast junked it to add room for HD. I'm still screaming about it.

Another favorite, M*A*S*H, is now here on Fox in an every-day schedule

Fox and THIS are putting RTV to shame!

MASH is everywhere. It's on TV Land. It's on Hallmark. It's on a local channel. That thing is broadcast all over the place.

Hulu - Watch your favorites. Anytime. For free.

Those don't require paying as of yet. but they don't have every show. they only host videos from known sources and link to them to make them easier to find, their sources are those such as Youtube, Youku, Megavideo, and pay services also such as iTunes or Amazon.com. it saves trouble using the search engines of such sites and saves tons of time.
