Gifts For Classic TV Fans You Can Buy Now
This holiday gift guide is for folks who love classic TV.
If you know someone who celebrates the oldies but goodies by watching TV the “old fashioned” way (aka they appreciate a good DVD box set), there are some great shows below that aren’t available on mainstream streaming platforms. Or maybe you have a pal who loves decorating their home with unique TV memorabilia — we’ve got that covered, too.
Below are a collection of standout gift ideas for shows that premiered about 15 years ago or more, from Mork & Mindy to Parks and Recreation (yes, it has been that long since we met Leslie Knope and the Pawnee gang). Also find collectible items from The Muppet Show and Seinfeld for the comedy fanatics, and for the spooky viewers a truly to die for Dark Shadows box set. Drama lovers, scroll through to find memorabilia from The Sopranos, The Wire, and more.
The Rankin/Bass and Peanuts holiday specials will be broadcasting all holiday season long. But if you want the classics nestled under your tree, look no further! Scroll through our Throwback Gift Guide options to get a jumpstart on your holiday preparations.
