I don't know man. I had a girlfriend in the early 90s who loved the old show. Don't know when the PBS playback was from at that time, I think it started in the 60s. But those old ones are incredibly bad.

I personally thought it was the worst TV show ever. I could not understand why she watched it. Beyond bad.

I hear a lot about it recently becoming good, probably has, but I cannot overcome those old ones I tried to watch, they've completely ruined me on the series. Maybe one day I'll start with the new Season 5 or something, but good lord they were so bad back then. I cannot even describe how stupid they were. Such bad acting and story lines, just everything was terrible.
