    Growing up in the 70s and 80s in Germany, I've been brainwashed by US movies and sitcoms, 90% of the things I've watched was from the US - Magnum P.I, Simon & Simon, The Fall Guy, Kojak, A-Team, Golden Girls, Mary Taylor Moore, Lou Grant, MacGyver, Knight Rider, Night Court, Family Ties, Miami Vice, The Wonder Years, Facts of Life, Love Boat, and on and on and on.

    I know the US better than many parts of Germany.

    Success is defined only in the eye of the beholder. Maybe money is the what someone else defines as success and therefore that’s what they strive for. “We don’t all match to the beat of just one drum, what might be right for you may not be right for some” - I think that was in the theme song to the old sitcom The Facts of Life.

    Why cant I watch old TV shows? 3's company? Facts of Life? The Peoples Court? It doesnt make much sense to me.
