Ok, search your memory banks. The one tv lineup(sequence of shows that aired the same night from anytime in history, not necessarily back to back. Also not network specific) that gave you the most joy.

It was a tough deal to pick but I'd have to say:

Friday nights CBS circa 1979:

The Incredible Hulk 8:00-9:00
The Dukes of Hazard 9:00-10:00

Still get chills thinking about that line up.

There's no place I can be since I found Serenity.

I'm sure I'll think of a few other line-ups later on, but right now the ones that come to mind are:

September-December 2002, FOX:
Firefly & John Doe

January-April 2007, Sci-Fi:
Battlestar Galactica & Dresden Files

Now that's what I call a tough question!!!

So here's a UK based Friday night.
I think, if memory serves me correctly, the shows were all on the same night for a couple of years in the mid '90s.

Tea-time C4 - TFI Friday
9:00pm BBC2 - Have I Got News For You
9:30pm C4 - Friends
10:00pm C4 - Frasier
10:30pm C4 - Whose Line Is It Anyway?

And I think BBC2 had late night repeats of Monty Python as well but that may have been other years, I'm really not too sure about that.

The short time Firefly aired was enough to surpass my previous Fox Friday night favorite: The X-Files in the early 90's.

NBC's Thursday night line up rocked for years, it was called "must see Thursday", now they may as well call it SNL's has-been Thursday.

THESOMNAMBULIST

Here in the UK Sky, to thier credit, would actually broadcast Buffy and Angel in order. So that for those episodes where the two shows crossed over the narratives lined up.

8 o'clock until 10 'oclock. Pure brilliance.

Otherwise back when I was a kid in the 80's I think Dukes of Hazzard was followed up with Buck Rogers!

In the 78-79 season it was Wonder Woman at 8, then Incredible Hulk at 9. Gorram teenage-geek Heaven, I'll tell ya!
