yeah, i saw a 1980 episode of Battlestar Galactica and if that was normal for a show, why was the 1980s considered the golden age of television? I seem to dislike a lot of shows from the 1980s but for some reason I like watching modern movies and episodes with a 1980s setting.

Yeah the 1980s Battlestar Galactica was an abomination but the original series was actually not bad (I think so anyways).  I look back on tv shows in the 80s with nostalgia but whenever I watch them I realize that most shows from that era are extremely formulaic and completely unbelievable (there were some that weren't though but they were few and far between).  The writing today on average for tv shows is probably a lot better.
