haha. I love watching that show! I used to make my parents mad because I wanted to watch it whenever I saw it on. Even as a rebellious "I hate everything" teenager I still loved it. The costumes, the dancing, the band, the best.

It seemed a little corny when Grandma watched but I usually kept one eye on it anyways. Now I have a much better appreciation of it. The only (maybe weak) analogy I can come up with is when The Dead saw Count Basie and said it was the best music they had ever seen.

My wife's Grams still watch LW. One of the PBS stations around here still shows it.

My Grandma and Grandpa used to make me watch it as a kid. Ah the days when we only had 3 channels and PBS if you could get a good signal.
