Where can you watch old t.v. shows?

AngelPuppy1 — Wed, 28 Aug 2024 10:40:00 GMT

I am sick of most of the programs on these days and I would like to watch some old shows. Are there any channels where you can watch all old t.v. shows? I have comcast. Thank you!

Pluto tv has a ton of old shows. Just pull it up on the internet. It's completely free. No account required.

You just pick what you want from the tv grid and off you go. There is everything from old movies to tv to talk and game shows including documentaries and cooking and home shows.

I don't even watch my paid youtube tv anymore.

@AngelPuppy1 Do you have TV Land on Comcast? Even without cable, you can get Catchy TV, Antenna TV, Dabl, and several others that show old TV shows. Virtually free, if you get an antenna. They may be on your Comcast programming, too.

There is a website: Zap2it...that offers a full TV schedule for your locale.

You can pin it to your computer task bar.

I stream tv and see a lot of old shows and movies available for free on various channels. Google where ones you like are streamed.

Everyday, I watch MeTV, Antenna TV, UPTV, FETV and Retro TV.

Check out your TV remote menu. It should show the shows.

And streaming there are tons of old TV shows. I regularly watch MaryTyler Moore, Coach, and D i c k Van D y k e. I only watch old TV shows.

Good luck exploring.

INSP for tons of old Westerns, FETV has lots of old shows like Perry Mason, Leave it to Beaver, Hazel, Bewitched. TVLAND has lots to choose from, too.

I also watch Charge! Shows like Little House, Chips, Without a Trace, CSI NY and CSI Miami; GET Tv has the original Magnum, Rockford Files, Quincy . . .

I watch all the old ones, great way to avoid the election ads.

@AngelPuppy1 START channel is available on my cable and over the air. It has more recent offerings such as Cold Case, In Plain Sight, etc., but I enjoy the offerings there.

@AngelPuppy1, do you have a Firestick, or Roku? There is plenty of old programming there. Lots of entire channels devoted to specific shows.

Also, if you have Prime, look at the their Live TV option.

@AngelPuppy1. There is lots of old programming if can use a simple interior antenna on your TV to receive over-the-air tv. It's all free too.

I have a friend that that is all she watches.

Great American Family TV runs old episodes of Murder She Wrote, Columbo, and Perry Mason at least late at night. DH often goes to sleep to it after we check out the TSV's.

We have Optimum Cable tv and get many of the old shows. I couldn't even begin to name them all. The one I watch is Columbo. Some are so old that I had watched them growing up, like Wagon Train, Leave it to Beaver, Father Knows Best, etc.

OLD TV shows are EVERYWHERE. With an antenna, you can watch for free a bunch of channels with old shows if you just go to the middle to bottom of the channels. If you are looking for a specific show, you can google it ask where can i watch [name]. One can watch lots of old shows on Amazon Prime without an extra fee. Just search within Amazon Prime if you have it for your show. My cable company Spectrum offers tons of old shows: Golden Girls, Murder She Wrote, Little House on the Prairie, the Cosby Show, Seinfeld, Friends, Sex and the City, I love Lucy...

Thanks for so many good ideas and places to check! I don't have Roku or a Fire Stick and I don't have an interior or exterior antennae. I have comcast cable. I don't have any extra paid channels besides Netflix. I admit to not knowing much about our cable system and what is there and how to find all of these things. DH is usually the one who handles the t.v. stuff. Thank you very much for all of your replies!

@AngelPuppy1 There is probably an online tv program guide for your area. TV Guide might work. Once you find the tv program website, you have to enter your zip code and cable provider, and then you can browse the channels and find shows you like. Comcast may have a program guide online. You probably have to enter your zip code and maybe account information to access it.

Your comcast cable probably offers a tv guide on the tv screen as well. If you have a comcast remote, there may be a button on it for the guide, and that would be another way to browse the programming available.
