As I got a little older I used to love Thundarr the Barbarian in his post apocalyptic world. Joined by his companions, the wookie looking Ookla the Mok and the Original Princess Ariel. He even had a Sun Sword that was so much like a light saber even I at 10 years old could see they ripped it right from Star Wars.
The classic Schwinn Scrambler with fiberglass mags. I wanted one of these so bad but I probably couldn't afford one today.
Who could forget Bill?
Another thing I used to love was O'Grady's potato chips. They were so good I would save up all my paper route money, have my mom take me to the store to get a bag. Then I would hide it in my room so that I would not have to share with any of my siblings. Sorry sucka's
The Land of the Lost was another big favorite. I watched on episode on youtube the other day and the acting was absolutely horrible but in the 70's we didn't know any better or Burt Reynolds and Charleton Heston would never of had a job.
One show that I watched with my older siblings was Logan's Run. I remember being scared to death watching that show. I was and still am in love with the female co-star Heather Menzies, she was great.
There are probably lots of other things that I have forgotten but these all made a lasting impression on my memory. Feel free to add your own.

And what about the Dukes of Hazzard? And the Love Boat and Fantasy Island. What a great childhood!
dude I still sing that bill song on a regular basis. does anyone have some picture pages, it's time to get your picture pages, time to get your crayons and your pencils... What about battlestar galactica? and Voltron?
Thanks for the ride on the time machine bro. I still can't turn away from an episode of Johnny Quest. Ahhh... the memories.
Now that was fun! We actually own some episodes of the Super Friends, and my kids love them. The Wonder Twins are not in any of these episodes. Good times!
