LocateTV Blog

When life seems a little hard to bear (as is so often the case in late November), there’s much comfort to be had from regressing to the past and indulging in a little nostalgia.Thus LocateTV introduce this week’s theme page: Retro TV Classics.

Each of our theme pages acts as an example of how you can use LocateTV to watch a range of TV shows or films on a particular topical theme or genre by using our free embeddable widgets - previous ones include The World’s Sexiest Actors and Thanksgiving.

This week our page includes such old TV favourites The Brady Bunch, I Love Lucy, M*A*S*H and Dallas. Our selection has a US bias, but if you’re a UK TV fan why not take our example and use Locate to search for a handful of your childhood classics such as Mr Benn or The Prisoner?

The team over at Child of the 1980s have added LocateTV embeds to many of their retro pages such as Bagpuss. It’s a great site for nostalgic web users with articles on games, toys and sweets as well as UK and US 80s film and TV.

Never underestimate the bonding value of nostalgic programming. Share the retro TV theme page with friends and work colleagues to ensure misty-eyed conversations about quite how much Lassie made you cry. Come home, girl, come home!
