Hi Marie - definitely not Grizzly Adams - this was Saturday evening material with a really fast catchy tune - ' My name is BJ _____ and this is my best friend bear' from recollection. Might have been in a jeep but I am going on memory and I'm sure it was American! Dukes of Hazard is another classic. |

Ooooh will have to think about bear one then!!!! I will come back to that if it appears in my sad old brain!!!!! Loved Dukes of Hazard. I remember laughing about stupid old Rosco the policeman and my Grandad going all misty eyed about Daisy Duke. I personally had a thing about Luke Duke. Happy Days was another favourite then following that the lovely Scott baio in Joanie loves Chachi. 'Sit on It' |

OOooh Yes! Scott still does it for me! Watched an old Dukes of Hazard the other day on Sky thinking the boys would like it - very disinterested - hubby tried to turn over but got a slap as it was me who really wanted to watch it!! Also watched Smokey and the Bandit the other Sunday - who remembers the old CB lingo?!! |

No TV for us in the 40s and 50s. But as adults my husband and I loved Catweazle which I think was supposed to be for the children! |
