I'm with you on Warehouse 13. I also liked Eureka but thought the last two season when they went back in time and changed the timeline was terrible.

I've tried to watch some of the current shows on TV and most of them just don't hold my interest. We still watch NCIS but its not as good without Mark Harmon. The recent iteration of Hawaii Five-O was okay but I think it was going off the rails towards the end. We do watch the new Magnum P.I. but its not as good as the Tom Selleck version.
For the past few years, we've been watching a lot of the BBC or Acorn imports. The problem with the BBC shows is their seasons were anywhere from 3 to 8 episodes with the exception of Midsommer Murders. We have been enjoying Vera, Foyle's War, and Death in Paradise (for the comedy).
It's a shame the U.S. studios don't make shows like BBC does.
I also watched Doctor Who up until the Doctor became an apparent female and the show decided to become "woke."

Colombo! I forgot that one! That’s one of the best!
The comedian Gilbert Gottfried used to do an impression of Floyd the barber having a conversation with Bob Dylan.
I was born in 1968. It blows my mind that they were re-running shows from the 50s when I was a kid. Or even earlier than that: Our Gang. I showed some Our Gang to my kids yesterday. My oldest is just 5 but he liked it. That stuff was on every day after school.

In the case of the timeline change I think they were responding to their audience, which wanted Jack Carter and Allison Blake to hook up. The last episode was a rewrite that was made necessary by the late decision to canel the show. It summed up a distilled version of what the final season would have been.
I love te memories this thread brings to the surface.
As others have said the list of candidates is endless and my top three will change literally every time I think about it. Still, here are a few:
Nero Wolfe (Timothy Hutton’s version)
Guardian: The Lonely and Great God (K Drama)
Sports Night (sitcomish)

Hutton produced and acted in the best of any Nero adaptions. Sadly, he only did a mere handful. It was series I eagerly looked forward to.
