Smiles in Dark Places

I mention quite often that my childhood was unpleasant, but I can remember some enjoyable times too, and they mostly revolve around TV.

Shows like Knight Rider, Dukes of Hazard, Wonder Woman, The Incredible Hulk, The A Team, The Love Boat, and Fantasy Island give me the warm fuzzies.  It's not because of how great the acting was on Knight Rider, or the amazing stories told on The Love Boat.  It's the memories of sitting with my brother and enjoying these shows with him.  As children I fought him my brother too much and mostly for no real reason, but  even as a child I loved watching TV with him.

I see these shows on TVLand sometimes, and I stop to watch a little bit just for the smiles and the happy feelings they leave.
