Ditto. I think it was because I had encountered the cartoons before the TV show and saw the Munsters as a knock off of the cartoon and thus somehow inferior.

"Get Smart" is a true classic! I absolutely love the humor, that at times can be a bit racy (; . My all-time favorite is Adam-12!

It's hard to pick one, but if I had to, it would probably be Mission Impossible with Peter Graves.

Just realized, methinks you meant "Space 1999" featuring real human puppets Martin Landau and Barbara Bain, (post- Mission Impossible)
and uhhh.... uhhh...
the bearded lady?
Space Patrol was an American radio and later live-action series from the '50's.

I don't think I've seen any mention of cartoons. I remember Tom Slick and the Thunderbolt Grease-Slapper. Penelope Pitstop was his girlfriend and Granny was the mechanic, but I don't recall whose granny, Tom's or Penelope's. I think Tom was part of the George of the Jungle show, but not sure.

It seems I am mixing two different cartoons. Pinelope Pitstop was not Tom Slick's girlfriend, she had her own cartoon.

Penelope Pitstop was spun off of Wacky Races. I believe she was Peter Perfect's girlfriend.

Yes, but Gerry & Sylvia Anderson also did UFO and Space 1999!
LOVED UFO - I have all of them on DVD. Space 1999 was too over-the-top trying to be campy Star Trek for me.

Yeah don't think I ever even heard of the "supermarionation" (Anderson's term) series! But Fireball XL5, and Supercar were in syndication when I was a tyke. I liked Fireball better.
Maybe it was the theme song:
Speaking of which, we haven't even touched on the cool theme songs that came with so many TV shows.
Cody wore no underwear?and the only TV SF show I preferred was:
COMMANDO CODY!
