Good, bad, and indifferent . . . came and went. Some became a part of popular culture, their titles sparking recognition even today: Howdy Doody, I Love Lucy, Dragnet, The Tonight Show, The Lone Ranger, Baywatch. Several still appear today on cable outlets or for purchase on DVD. How fascinating, though, that other series which were all the rage for a period of time have virtually dropped out of our myth pool; forgotten, if not entirely gone, as some are now emerging for a revisit via streaming. Cult fascination with such shows, as has been the case for decades now with movies that the mainstream may be unaware of but devotees recall with a passion, is increasing in leaps and bounds. Several are lost forever, particularly those that were broadcast live; though in some cases kinescopes of such early experiments do exist in museums dedicated to the history and heritage of television. Here, then, are 101 series, the titles of which may ring a bell and stir ancient memories for those who were very young in that long ago era when TV made its initial inroads into our lives.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: black; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-IN\" style=\"color: black;\"\u003eDOUGLAS BRODE is a novelist, graphic novelist, produced screenwriter and playwright, film historian, TV and radio personality, regional theatre actor, multi-award-winning educator and multi-award-winning journalist.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: black; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BearManor Media","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":55896466456744,"sku":"ink1787305847240","price":25.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":55896466489512,"sku":"pde1787305847241","price":28.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/3246\/4808\/files\/cult-television-101-forgotten-shows-to-remember_1.jpg?v=1787305853"},{"product_id":"the-good-the-bad-and-the-outrageous-1980s-horror-cinema","title":"The Good, The Bad, and the Outrageous: 1980s Horror Cinema","description":"\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-language: TA;\"\u003eThe Good, The Bad, and the Outrageous: 1980s Horror Cinema \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-language: TA;\"\u003eBryan Senn\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e838 pages\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e7x10 size\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-IN; mso-fareast-language: EN-IN;\" lang=\"EN-IN\"\u003eISBN 9798887719498\u003cspan style=\"mso-tab-count: 1;\"\u003e  paperback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-IN; mso-fareast-language: EN-IN;\" lang=\"EN-IN\"\u003eISBN 9798887719504 hardback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-variant: small-caps;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eThe 1980s proved a watershed period for horror cinema, seeing taboos broken, technology flourish, and storytelling go off in wild directions.
