See, this is weird because when I read the other posts I remembered watching Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie (which I loved!) as a child but my mother had a problem with Sabrina The Teenage Witch! Now the reason was because some wise ass elder of the anointed class mentioned from the platform that Sabrina and Harry Potter were demonic programs that encouraged interest in the occult. But by then I had a tv in my own bedroom so watched it anyway!
What TV shows did you miss out on as a dub?

four candles
In the UK,it was top of the pops which was on a Thursday night. We had the group study that night in a house just down the road from us,and my mum had forgotten her glasses,so I ran back up for them,ran in the door,turned the telly on while looking for them when Whitesnake came on with 'Fool for your Loving'.....I couldn't miss that!!!
Said I couldn't find the glasses straight away when I went back down.
Course,no I'm not at meetings,TOTP isn't on.....ah well,Scuzz here we come!!!

Dune
As far as because of content. Buffy the vampire slayer . I convinced myself that i wouldn't watch the show for the demons/vamps even though i am a HUGE horror fan. The first rated R movie i saw in theatres was 'slither', and after that i stopped "missing out".
As far as because of the times, i only saw the series premiere episode of 24 because I was sick and stayed home to watch it. I know i would have loved the show if i could, but tuesday was bookstudy night and couldn't get home in time to watch it. I know this sounds petty, but i'll never forget it, I missed the last episodes of Xmen and Spiderman because we were out in field circus. I'm going to find them on Youtube right now.
