This was another one of my favorites.

It ran on NBC for Six seasons .
It managed to peak at Number 2 in the ratings, only behind the TV series "All in the Family"

Do you remember, "Ready Freddie Who Ain't Too Steady" ?

Here, Fred is convinced he's dying.

I remember when UHF came into being. You had to buy a TV that now had "U" for a channel as well as the second knob for channels 14-82. In Boston we got TV 38 which became the home of the Bruins and later Red Sox and Channel 56. Going from one channel to the other was accompanied by a loud series of clicks. And the TV was better then than now! Tuesday was "Combat" in b/w, Sunday was Kojak, the Equalizer, and Mission Impossible.
