Classic TV shows...

  Don't have kids but my Dad and I always watched Happy Days and Leave It To Beaver

  My wording is not great for sure but it's moronic to believe my kids ONLY watch Looney Tunes and nothing else....what I meant (and I realize how it can be read incorrectly to what I meant)
  
  
  Bugs Bunny/Looney Tunes is the only television show that both myself and my kids watched while growing up........at different times of course due to the generation thing. No other tv program in the world was watched by all of us while growing up. Sorry I confused the world.

  Ok fair enough. My choice of words may have been a little harsh, so I want to apologize. I just meant that it's not fair to kids (not yours but in general) to keep them in the dark about current shows so they can watch what the parents watched when they were little just because the parents are nostalgic about the old shows and think they are so great. It's just not fair from a social perspective to the kids. A mix of both is certainly fine IMO.
  
  Not really the same but similar, my brothers wife only let their first daughter watch the Food Network for a few years after she had outgrown the kiddie show but wasn't ready, in their opinion, for the teenage shows. Not long ago, she was in school and having a class discussion about their favorite shows and she didn't know any other shows but Food Newtwork shows and she got laughed at by the whole class and still gets teased today about it.
  
  My wife and I are very aware of what's on tv and what our kids are exposed to and plan to keep it that way as they get older. Our oldest has a slew of favorite current shows and a few old ones that we watched, tho she doesn't realize they are old shows. She's particularly fond of School House Rock because I pull them up on YouTube for her on my iPad; she actually told my parents what interjections were when I asked her about them...and my wife didn't know the answer.
