Forget TV Land, check out NBC.com's blast to the past

Remember when Don Johnson's t-shirt-and-pastel-suits from "Miami Vice" were all the rage?

Yeah, I don't really want to, either.
But now the whole world can relive the late 80s in their pastel and art-deco glory, thanks to NBC.com's collection of vintage television shows. Aptly named Way Back Wednesdays, the web site uploads new episodes of a variety of old school shows on, you guessed it, Wednesdays.

Must-sees are "The Alfred Hitchcock Hour" and "Night Gallery" -- a sequel of Rod Sterling's "The Twilight Zone" -- and fans of "Battlestar Gallactica" should check out episodes of the original show as they're uploaded. If only to mock the 1970s special effects.

Other shows include: "Emergency," "Night Gallery," "Miami Vice," "Buck Rogers," and, sadly, "A-Team."

Any other vintage shows you'd like to see revived online?
