Am I the only one who watches these things? I absolutely love them. Currently watching top 40 division series moments and it brings back a lot of great memories. I don't find the NFL particularly entertaining so I gotta get my baseball fix somehow. I hate winter!

Yeah I have them on in the background a lot when there's 5 feet of snow out the window

Thank you. Tuned in just in time for #27 (which, as a Padres fan) should be #1 .

1984 NLCS Game 4
Steve Garvey homers in the bottom of the ninth to force game five.

the only countdown I've watched in the last year was the top plays of 2014 that aired last night.

I find those pretty boring for the most part.

My favorite offseason programming is SEASONS, the one hour recap of a MLB season. Even better of those are the ones pre-1980 with the vintage footage and players.

My worst programming that I rarely or never watch is countdown or MLB TONIGHT when you only have about 3-5 mins of hot stove news and 60-120 minutes of time to waste on it.

MLB Prod should do more documentary/reality programming (I liked the knuckleballer "reality" show) and I think they should do a hard knocks type show during spring training and reair those reality and documentary shows during the offseason, just like NFL Network in the NFL offseason ruruns all the seasons Hard Knocks including the non-HBO debut of the newest season.

I would love to see Yankeeography type of documentaries. I think I saw the were showing Ken Burn's Baseball which is fantastic

yes, they show Burn's BASEBALL, but I consider that a wasted evening of programming as I have the 10 inning DVD set and can watch any inning at any time I want.

I wish there were more baseball related documentaries created by MLB Productions or more seasons of SEASONS added to the schedule or even random 2014 regular season game replays in the evenings since that would be more interesting than all the MLB Tonight reruns, countdowns, prime 9's, and the same six movies in their cinema block that they've already aired millions of times already.

Seasons is good. I also wish they would show some retro TWIB, there's a lotta little anecdotes hiding/forgotten in those old episodes. I don't mind Hot Stove in the morning, good noise while I drink coffee too but I've always be a fan of Vasgersian

I watch the first hour of hot stove before work every morning. I like the cast but I think some old replays would be cool. Like ESPN classic use to do (or still might do). I'm just not a big NFL or NBA fan so I find myself watching a lot more history channel lately
