This post also reminded me that for many years (decades) I had snippets of The Funky Phantom theme song in my head, without knowing WHAT the darn tune actually was. Only the help of endless Google searches and the existence of YouTube finally solved my mystery last year. ... I personally didn't have much in the lines of TV Show board games. The most unique one I recall playing in the 1970s was called The Sinking of the Titanic.

I love video games but nothing beats an old board game. I would love to find a Casper game that is way to cool!Bob Johnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02218170399251710882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8080299065441712068.post-79115267980491664222016-04-03T22:28:05.248-05:002016-04-03T22:28:05.248-05:00Thanks, Joe.

Sadly, it wasn't a ton of fun now. Great pics, thanks for the stroll down memory lane.Wings1295https://www.blogger.com/profile/08045644215235749353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8080299065441712068.post-80484592307382236482016-04-01T17:14:20.897-05:002016-04-01T17:14:20.897-05:00There are descriptions of the games at boardgamege...There are descriptions of the games at boardgamegeek.com and you're right, neither one sounds like much fun.<br />When I first found that Battlestar Galactica game, I almost threw out the "cylon raider" piece because I thought it was just a random piece of plastic. C'mon, Parker Bros, how about a little effort on the game pieces?Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03119827816698009731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8080299065441712068.post-70084779579813120102016-04-01T14:47:23.365-05:002016-04-01T14:47:23.365-05:00great round up! i actually HAD that "battlest...great round up! i actually HAD that "battlestar galactica" game, dangit. i can't imagine what the "all in the family" game would be like -- it's not like they left the house all that often (or at least, we never saw the neighborhood much). same with "the waltons" zzzzzzzzFrankOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01316107158387079660noreply@blogger.com
