The excitement is gone

What I liked best about TV Guide was the little "R" next to a show that denoted it was a RE-RUN.

Now about Green Acres. I'd dissect that show and re-use the characters if the actors were still around. Pat Buttram's "Mr. Haney" would be waaay more entertaining than Anderson Cooper. And you'd know he wasn't being forthcoming most of the time. Oliver Douglas, whom was always a gentleman when flustered, could replace foul-mouthed Bill O'Reilly, Lisa Douglas could replace the even more foul-mouthed Ann Coulter, Mr. Drucker could replace Billy "Oxy Dude" Mays, Mr. Ziffel could replace Alan Colmes, and, IMHO, Arnold the Pig would be a most suitable replacement for Sean Hannity.

I also remember when TV guide would put a star or asterisk to show that a program was broadcast in color or as time when on, they would use a little "BW" for a black and white program.

As to your l ttle assessment there, myself, I'm burned out from politics myself.
