I think we often remember old tv series and film through the filter of nostalgia (who we were, where we were, and what we were doing at the time), and if we re-visit some of these, I often find the Suck Fairy has sprinkled her not so magic dust on them - they are of their time and place, and we are no longer in that time or place.

For instance, if you watch whole episodes of Monty Python re-runs on Cable, I found that it was 80% dross/v. unfunny. We only remember the highlights...
