I'm what you call color phobic. I think TV went downhill when it went to color. Firstly, any series that was split between color and black and white, the black and white episodes were superior:
Man from UNCLE, Lost in Space, The Fugitive, Combat, Petticoat Junction, My Three Sons, Beverly Hillbillies, Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea.
Then there are all of the great dramas that were exclusively in black and white:
The Defenders, Naked City, Route 66, The Nurses, The Lieutenant, New Breed, East Side West Side, Slattery's People, Ben Casey, Cain's Hundred, Mr. Novak, Eleventh Hour, Breaking Point, Outer Limits, For the People, Dr. Kildare.
But speaking of UNCLE, I transferred mine a couple of years back before the DVD explosion hit, figuring there was no way this would ever be released. I'm still sceptical, but not as much so. I know its commonly thought of by fans that first season was the best but I'm partial to second as that was when I first started to watch the show and it was also when McCallum became a full-fledged partner.
