Where Were You in 1979?



Since 1979, Kitchen Magic has provided quality kitchen refacing and remodeling to our customers at an affordable price. You've helped us become the largest kitchen refacer in the U.S. We will celebrate its 30th anniversary in November of this year, and to celebrate, we'll look back at some of what made 1979 special.

Earlier we looked back and reminisced about the top music hits for 1979. We also had a look at the top movies of that year.

In 1979, there were just over 76 million households with televisions, but viewers were pretty much confined to the three broadcast networks, ABC,NBC, and CBS (Fox was many years in the future) or a few local channels. Just one out of every five homes had access to cable TV, and Time magazine marvelled that cable viewers might be able to see as many as 36 channels on it some day.

Let's count down the thirty most popular shows in 1979. Last week we looked at shows #21 through #30.

Here are shows #11 through #20. How many of these do you recall?

11) Archie Bunker's Place
12) Eight is Enough
13) Taxi
14) House Calls
15) Real People
16) Little House on the Prairie
17) Happy Days
18) CHiPS
19) Trapper John, M.D..
20) Charlie's Angels
Can you guess the number one show in 1979? Send your answers here.
