It was never surprising when massive shows that kids love get an equally massive toy line. However, sometimes they pick some pretty random shows to market to kids. We honestly have to wonder if these next 10 really were the kind of things kids wanted to find under their trees at Christmas.

M.A.S.H.

Tristar

Now you too can own your favorite soldier that may or may not make it out of the war alive!

Gilligan's Island

PlaySkool

For some reason PlaySkool seemed to think that they could sell a floating island playset much better if it had the Skipper.

CHiPS

Because the car looks SO much different than any other generic police car toy.

Happy Days

8 Young Celebrities We Grew Up Watching Who Ended Up Behind Bars

By Tanya
You might think that growing up in the spotlight would be difficult, but you would hope that having money at a young age would help set you up for a successful future. As we've learned over the years, that is not always the case. As it turns out, being pushed into the spotlight and having people judge you while you go through puberty is apparently not all that good for you. Who would have guessed? Can you sense the sarcasm?

And of course there is Roseanne as well, which has been killing it in the ratings every episode. It's honestly only a matter of time before all

But those are the facts and there's not much

13 Dreadful Life Lessons You Learned While Playing 13 Dead End Drive That Haunt You To This Day

By Tanya
Listen, board games were a very important part of our childhood. Dream Phone was played almost every weekend, Fireball Island was played on those days when you had the energy to set it up, but there was one game that trumped them all. 13 Dead End Drive was what happened if you mixed Clue with Mouse Trap, and also added in some good old-fashioned sabotage. The object of the game was simple: Survive. The backstory of the game (not that anyone really cared about that) was that a wealthy woman died and now there is a big fight over who
