Let's see...
Doctor Who
Transformers
Star Blazers (aka Space Cruiser Yamamoto)
Robotech
Battlestar Galactica
Galactica 1980
Star Trek
Warner Brothers' Cartoons (the good ones, Tex Avery &c.) - collectively
known as "The Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Hour" (or show)
Some non-fiction-ish shows:
In Search Of...
Any of the specials with David Copperfield
Any of the specials with Doug Henning
Fight Back! (With David Horowitz)
That's Incredible
Going back a bit further, I'd probably add:
Sesame Street
Mr. Roger's Neighborhood
The Electric Company
Romper Room (much earlier that the three above)
When I was around 7 years old, my mom used to bowl and my brother and I
would stay in the "day care" room at the bowling alley. The lady who ran
that forced us to watch "Happy Days" (which I hated) and "Eight is
Enough". A few others like "My Three Sons" and "Leave it to Beaver" were
in there as well.
Oh, yes, Little House on the Prairie.
A few game shows like Joker's Wild, Jeopardy (my dad loved that show),
The Price is Right, Wheel of Fortune - usually what my parents watched
during dinner.

...and I should have thrown in 'Rawhide' and Walt Disney's 'Wonderful
World of Color' also.
I could have sworn that 'Combat' was also created by Rod Serling, but
apparently I'm wrong.

Wonderful World of Disney I do recall watching regularly as well, now you
mention it. I also forgot Tom & Jerry, Scooby Doo, The Brady Bunch (some
of the things I list now just make me shake my head), Popeye, Flinstones,
the Jetsons.

Not allowed to watch He-Man, She-Ra, Thundercats, Transformers, Voltron,
G.I. Joe, Ghostbusters, et cetera due to satanic (read: has magic)
and/or violent content. Whee. Occasionally sneaked an ep here and
there while visiting neighbour kids. :P
I remember watching:
Mysterious Cities of Gold
the Little Prince
Belle and Sebastian
the Little Koala Show
Maple Town
Today's Special (wtf? that's a magic hat, wonder how that got by)
Sesame Street (pre-Elmo ftw)
Flying House/Superbook
Count Duckula (might've been sneaking that one)
Dangermouse
the Monkees
Mr. Roger's Neighborhood
Mr. Wizard
3-2-1 Contact
Reading Rainbow
Newton's Apple
Square One TV
(ah, Wikipedia, how handy you are at recalling names of old PBS shows)
