TV events (miniseries and such, not so much regular shows)

[netmouse]

As I recently posted on a friend's journal as a comment, when I think TV miniseries of my childhood, I think of "V", which I'm pretty sure I've seen more than once, "The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby", which is why I first fell in love with Roger Rees, and "North and South", about the civil war.

What TV events and miniseries do you remember taking a chunk of time out of life when you were young?

I've read it and am in the middle of his second book. He's a great person, and I always appreciated his interest in science.

If I recall correctly, the MASH finale was a rarity at the time, an ending to a TV show that ended the storyline as well. I know The Fugitive had done that before; I can't recall any others off the top of my head.
