Then you've got your shows that were so rubbish they were good. Like 'Knight Rider' or 'Battlestar Galactica.'

To which I would add 'The A Team'. :D

Maybe, but the A Team never took itself seriously. To qualify as 'so bad it's good' a show has to take itself seriously. It's not an easy target to hit. It can only really be achieved by accident. Like finding Narnia.

Being fed up with the lack of any decently 'gritty' series on the box, I've ordered Ray Donovan series 1 on DVD. Can't go wrong with that!

And The Dukes of Hazzard. :D

No, DoH was just good. Mainly because of Daisy Duke, the freeze-frames with voiceover, and the jumping cars. But that's by the by.

'Prisoner: Cell Block H' is a good example of a show that's so bad it's good. Or 'Buck Rogers In The 25th Century.' 1970s American sci-fi is an especially rich vein for some reason.

& Sheriff Rosco Purvis Coltrane

Yuk yuk yuk.

I remember me and my brothers attempting to get into the car through the windows. My dad went crackers about damage to the paintwork.

And the bloke near us who had a red Mk3 Cortina with the Starsky and Hutch white stripe on it. He'd not extended it over the roof though so it was a partial fail, but we still thought that was very cool.

Funny, I can remember Daisy and the sheriff but bugger all else about it.
