What’s your second-favorite way to waste time on the internet?

Damn. You ever hear of a spoiler alert? Sheesh.

 

Same here. I was so into "Emergency," my parents actually got me Gage and DeSoto action figures and a few accessories for my birthday one year.

 

I spend way too much time on YouTube. Some of it is nerd culture stuff like Death Battle, Screen Crush, How it Should Have Ended, or Honest Trailers. Sometimes it is just random videos that the algorithm puts in front of me.

 

I honest to goodness used to fall asleep surfing Baseball Reference at night. Very relaxing.

 

All the Emergency! mentions reminds me that Cozi TV used to be an absolutely awesome clearinghouse for '70s & '80s hour-long cop/cop-adjacent shows 10 or so years ago. I absolutely loved Simon & Simon as a kid and was able to watch basically the whole show start to finish (there were a couple random episodes missing). Then I watched Miami Vice, which holds up remarkably well outside of the mailed-in final season. They also had Adam 12, Hart To Hart, Murder She Wrote, Starsky & Hutch and others I'm sure I'm forgetting. Alas, only Emergency! and Little House on the Prairie remain from the glory days. The sked is now loaded with recent claptrap like Frasier, Roseanne, 3rd Rock From the Sun, The Nanny Bones & Monk. Actually most of those shows are fine, but they're so recent and easy to find. Oh well.
