anyone else like WELCOME BACK, KOTTER ?

I really wanted those figures and playset back in the day. I didn't understand they weren't really Megos. Nice custom set, Dave.

By coincidence, this "Welcome Back Potter" spoof is making the rounds this morning:

I really liked the show as a kid, but I tried to watch one a while back, and it just didn't hold up for me. It was cornier than I remember.

Travolta made a carreer out of playing Barbarino in different movies though.

Yeah, that was awesome. Lenny and Squiggy showing up was fantastic.

It lost something for me when Arnold got married. Even when I was a kid I knew something didn't seem right. Even then I thought "HIM?! Who in the right mind would marry HIM?"

I loved WBK, but turned violently against it when Fantastic Journey premiered opposite it in 1977.

Oh so you were the other guy, I always wondered.

Kotter is still pretty well liked, everytime I put something Kotter related on Plaidstallions, I get a pile of hits.

Personally, I loved the show as a kid but couldn't get into it as an adult. My college roommate never missed it however.

I didn't like it as a kid, but when I got older, I started to enjoy it. I really like it now. I need to pick up the DVD.
