It also had Fabio as the friendly hotel owner who helped the team, unfortunantly, I was unable to locate any picture of him in the series :wacko:

Actually, I don't really watch TV. I have never seen a full episode of Magnum PI, Acapulco Heat, or any of those.

 

I have only seen Seinfeld once. I have never seen Friends. I have only seen ER once. I didn't watch X-Files until I bought my wife all nine seasons on DVD. I've never seen Farscape or Stargate, despite being a big SciFi buff.

 

The only TV shows I currently really watch are House and Lost.

What's really scary is that many in that time frame (and earlier) are being released on DVD (when they weren't worth the airtime in the first place). Magnum was actually not too bad IIRC, but the rest ... oy, where's the humanity?

 

There are a couple (not so Tropical) I have been rewatching, though--Moonlighting, Remington Steele, Columbo, Miami Vice--which are still pretty good stuff. And a lot better than current TV programming. What I'd really like to see (out of simple nostalgia, I suppose) is even older--Adventures in Paradise.

Ive always wondered why all those series had to have music with really disgustong porn-like saxophone solos? Especially this classic:

It was a comedy and so not really in the vein of the other shows mentioned.

 

You mean they were serious when they made Baywatch? :lol:

 

According to imdb, only 9 episodes of Manimal were ever made. Might've been interesting if I hadn't blinked about that time.

My buddy still watches Saved By The Bell.

"Zack, is that your phone in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?"

 

Been trying to find a pic of his phone, but the closest I got to it was this:

I wonder if Mark-Paul Gosselaar's friends ever let him live it down.

 

Friend: Hey Mark! Hey Mark! *chuckle* Can I... borrow your phone? *snigger*

Mark-Paul: *rolls eyes dramatically*

 

EDIT: I realise Saved By The Bell wasn't set in a tropical climate per se (though they did have a few episodes)... It's just that the Baywatch talk reminded me of Tiffany Amber Thiessen.

 

So here... to keep it on topic:

Fabio's got a buff body, but his face is too big. Do you know that he killed a sea gull once with his face while on a rollercoaster ride?

Let us all say a prayer for that miserable bird, dying while looking at Fabio's face...

I remember Manimal. Close up of the face while little feathers or hairs sprouted up. My friends and I ( who were in all of grade 3) used to enjoy Riptide . But your forgetting one of the classics, TJ Hooker... :huh:
