The Love Boat was one of my favorite shows back in the day. So many WONDERFUL memories. It helps to get through the 21st century to watch these shows when times were so different and so much better!

[@wisdomseeker3362]

Times then were different and so much better . The 80's were my best memories of love, family and life and greatest television shows of our time.

Gopher was my congressman after the series ended. He was a native of Sioux City Iowa and came back home and won a seat in the United States house of representatives. He later took on the incumbent governor in an unsuccessful primary challenge.

[@lorimiller4301]

@R I'm sorry you got such a reception. Unfortunately typical, so few appreciate the truth. What you offered was gold, you are absolutely correct. It's a spiritual crime. Do you watch Mudfossil University or Wise Up ? Perhaps JonLevi ? We've been lied to about everything. It's a shame that people don't realize but they will. Don't give up. Much love to you R. 🙂

Agreed I grew up with it too 1980s best times wanna go back!

[@keenakaur6314]

@@karolinesmail489 I loved pretty much everything from the 1980s. It was so great. The Love Boat was always so fun to watch. I still love watching free episodes on Xfinity, whenever I'm depressed and longing for the old days. It's a comforting show for me, and I just loved all the main characters, especially Julie and Gopher! ♥♥♥ My favorite episode was actually the very first episode, with Jimmy JJ Jackson, John Ritter and Captain Stubing's ex-wife on board. After watching this, I plan on laying on my bed all weekend, watching at least 15-20 full episodes of Love Boat, and sipping on some red wine, with my dog, and kitties, cuddled up next to me.

Normally when you watch a then and now of the cast of a show, especially a show that is 40+ years old, you expect a few deaths, so it is a pleasant surprise to see all the cast still alive.

[@BrianSweetman]

Well considering the got Teds age wrong after 38 years. Math is not their strong point. 28 (1982) does not make someone 57 in 2020!!

[@RetroCaptain]

Sadly Gavin (the captain) McLeod passed away shortly after this lookback was uploaded. Most of the guest actors also are long gone (I'm familiar with many of them). Even the Ship itself was junked 2 or 3 years ago after attemps made to revive her. Nobody wanted to invest in a 50 years old cruise ship. Kind of "fitting" in a way... the person who played the Captain...and the Ship itself..both gone basically the same year.

I was 5 in 1977 and loved those shows, but never got to see all of them. It is fantastic to be able to stream them all now with no commercials one after the other.

It's weird how some people look and age so completely different over the years while others you can still make out who it is even after they turn 60-70 yrs old.

[@asherhall4639]

The reason they called him the patron saint of Jumping the shark is because in those three series you mentioned he was in, in came in at a time when they feel all the life had been gone from the show, was beginning to get stale, and Ted came along and helped revitalize it for a few more seasons.
