Remember the great old shows we used to watch, shows like Third Rock from The Sun, or Miami Vice and even old classics like Gunsmoke. But unfortunately, these days it seems that if the program is not a crime / police show or heaven forbid a reality TV show, then it does not get mentioned.

There are many people who do not want to be shocked or disturbed by gruesome murders and graphic violence when they are trying to relax after a hard days work, and to call watching a group of obnoxious delinquents lazing about a house entertainment, makes a lot of us yearn for the old days of good viewable TV.

To answer the obvious question. Yes, there was violence in some of the old shows, but it was pretty unrealistic, and more importantly not created to specifically shock and distress the viewer. The average person is exposed to more than enough distressing information on TV news without having to be bombarded with it in the form of entertainment.

But all is not lost. Fortunately, there exists the means to find and download all those old classics. This means that people with more old fashioned viewing tastes are able to literally have their own library of favorite programs and shows which can be watched whenever they please.

Being able to download TV programs will go a long way in making sitting in front of the TV an enjoyable past time once more.
