The following is a shortlist of 10 forgotten Shows of the 70′s & 80′s. I say forgotten, because I forgot them until I did a little research. That said, you may remember one or more of these, or none at all. I have not seen any of these in years, although one or more of these may still be airing on Cable / Satellite. Many of these shows are considered Cult TV Series and are followed religiously by fans past and present. Enjoy!

SOAP was hilarious, even when it got the oddball story lines ( Burt and the aliens ), it was the funniest thing on TV.
