What were some of your favorite TV shows of the past century? Criteria is that it must have began airing prior to Jan 1, 2000 but can continue past that date.
A few of mine:
Magnum PI M*A*S*H Barney Miller Space Above and Beyond Simon & Simon Anything Star Trek

I was way too young to appreciate MASH during its hey day. I was born in 72 so I was just 11 when it went off the air.
I wonder how well the show would hold up now for a modern viewer?

Actually, the century didn't end until December 31, 2000. You don't start counting at zero and we are a base 10 numeric system.
