huanim1-1, Exercise 3: Checking "the best of its era"

Model answer (any programme):

1. Best by what measure? Audience size, critical reviews, awards, sales abroad or lasting memory give different answers.
2. Compared with what? How many programmes were made in the era, and how many channels were there to choose from?
3. Who says so? A nostalgic poll, a critic or the makers have different motives.
4. Did repeats inflate its fame? A programme shown for decades is remembered more than one shown once.
5. Is the evidence still available, or has the archive been lost?

Any three reasoned checks are acceptable.
