"old school channel"

i am a child at heart!
thanks to the wonderful ideas of one group in my broadcast management class last sem, i am probably considering establishing a network showing only reruns (when i become a billionaire). the things (both local and foreign) that i would aire are:

1. takeshi's castle
--was aired on IBC 13
--until now, everyone still wonders about these two things:
a. what the grand prize is if the contestant is able to defeat takeshi and enter the castle.
b. has any contestant actually defeated takeshi?

2. oh tokyo (both the first and the second)
--aired on WINS channel
--eleanor, marichu are actually the most entertaining hosts

3. the filipino-niponggo tutorial
--was aired on WINS
--there are two hosts for this show- a male and a female, and three unenthusiastic male students. (from their appearances and expressions, they look unprepared and also seemed to be forced to be part of the show, and they are the same students for every episode) the male host starts with a scenario where the phrase might be appropriate to use. afterwhcih, he repeats the phrase. the only role of the girl host is to say "ULITIN PO NATIN" and the students would repeat the phrase until all three students get the phrase right. i actually took some words and phrases down.

4. crystal maze
--was aired on star world
--i still think this is the most fascinating "skill-and-intelligence-test" show. there are four or five venues in the entire maze which has a different theme for each. some of which are the aztec and the industrial. the goal of the team (composed of around six members, i think) is to collect as much crystals as they can from the different rooms in the maze after finishing the required task under a certain period of time. the team leader picks out from the group, which he or she thinks is the most capable of accomplishing the task. if the contestant fails to leave the room by the time time runs out, he or she gets locked into the room until the final round, or if the team is willing to exchange a crystal for their teammate's freedom. the significance of the crystals is the more crystal the team has, the longer their time they are given for the final round. in the final round, the contestants are inside the huge crystal dome and their task is to collect the gold palara and put them inside the container. if they get silver ones, the number of the gold ones decreases correspondingly. if they are able to reach a certain amount of gold, they win the jackpot prize, which is a giant crystal. the host of the show is the bald (but not hot), richard o' brien (donned in tim yappy clothes), who i think first gave me the idea of what gay is.

5. cartoons:
--rainbow brite (rpn 9 ata), smurfs (rpn 9 ata, those blue freaks with white hats and undies), visionaries (was aired on star world, the heroes have pictures of animals on their chests, and their super ability is to be able to transform to that animal), looney toons, tiny toons (we're tiny, we're toony, we're all a little looney, and in this cartoony we're invading your tv!), garfield and friends (abc 5 ata, cute ni odie! but i really hate the pig!), g.i. joe (storm shadow's hot! and i always found lady jane stupid!), voltes v, voltron, care bears, chipmunks, batman adventures, teenage mutant ninja turtles, x-men (the original cartoon series), chipmunks, chip n' dale rescue rangers, darkwing, he-man, she-ra, transformers (more than meets the eye), super mario brothers, wacky races (mutley!!), jem and the holograms...
