...Miami Vice was probably my favorite show in the 1980s.
Look what "Mission Impossible" wrought.
No "Ernie Kovacs" who started an entire genre of TV, although they did get Sid Caesar's "Show of Shows".
No "Laugh In".
They got Johnny Carson on the "Tonight Show" but his predecessors, Steve Allen and Jack Paar were as good or better.
No "Sargent Bilko" or the later WWII shows like "Combat" you mentioned, "McHales Navy" or "Hogan's Heroes".
