8. Fantasy Island
In 1977 — for a third year in a row — Aaron Spelling carved out a slightly larger notch in pop culture history when he released Fantasy Island. Set on a mysterious island where fantasies come true (kind of …), the show ran for an incredible 152 episodes (Spelling’s longest running series up to that point) and cemented itself in TV history with the help of an excitable French dwarf shouting “Ze plane! Ze plane!” at the beginning of every episode. Note, a reboot of this show is in the works.
