My DD was named for a character on The Early Edition that was mentioned. DH loved the name Marissa. So, we used to watch it too!!!
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I LOOOOVED Wishbone... and I would so love to have it on DVD! That show was amazingly educational. I am sorry to say I haven't quite gotten to reading all of the books that they did their 40-50 episodes on, but knowing the general synopsis of the books, thanks to WISHBONE!, has helped me countless times! Wishbone has helped me immensely in my English classes, mythology class... and in art history... and SO many other times during middle school, high school, and even university!Originally posted by cami713:
Wishbone, I think, is abosolutely the best kids show ever made for teaching books, and definitely one of THE best educational shows. That show was my life when I was little. I have about 10 episodes now thanks to the licensed VHS and DVDs. My mom and I joke that Joe (that was Wishbone's owner, who I had a crush on [img]smile.gif[/img] ) and Andy Roddick, the tennis player, look quite a lot alike. We aren't sure how Joe got so good when he was wasting soo much time following Wishbone, Sam, and David around everwhere!
Thank you, wishbone! [img]graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
(oh, and I was only in 6th grade and not boy crazy in the least at that time, but regardless I always thought Joe was pretty cute. [img]wink.gif[/img] )

Danni, I saw info about the Dr. Quinn movies coming to DVD! The site is TV Shows on DVD
I go to this site just about every day, they have news on their main page. Here's the direct link to the Dr. Quinn page. You can join as a member to the site for free, and vote on shows you'd like to see come out. It's so cool!
Dr. Quinn movie info
I can't believe I forgot to list this show. My sister and I watched it for quite a few seasons, starting at the end of season one. I always thought the girl that played Colleen (the second girl, red head) was so beautiful! [img]smile.gif[/img]

oooh, did anyone watch Early Edition? the show about the guy who always got the newspaper a day early, and had to fix problems before they happened? i loved that one. I think it was on the same channel as touched by an angel (which I wasn't allowed to watch cause it was too late).

YYYYYEEEESSS!!! Thanks Janie!!!! I am sooooo ridiculously excited that they are bringing out Dr. Quinn's movies! I loved both of them, and it helped soften the blow since the series got yanked so suddenly at the end of it's sixth season. And I completely agree with you that the 2nd Colleen was my favorite. She seemed a lot more outgoing and quick-witted than the other one (at least, to me!), and I loved her reddish-brown hair, too. I think I liked it cause it reminds me of PM Felicity's hair!!
Oh, and I forgot to add that my all-time favorite show was The X-Files. I didn't include it in the list since I was already in middle school when I started watching it during the 3rd season, and the X-Files is definitely *not* a kiddie show. I have every season on DVD except for the 9th, since to me the series really should have ended with the 8th season IMO. [img]cool.gif[/img]
Other shows I liked....
Lamb Chop (forgot this one earlier)
Home Improvement
Touched By An Angel
Dr Quinn
Dharma and Greg
Of course, now I have MORE favorites...ER is totally at the top!
