Define vintage. If by that, you mean anything pre-1980 in origin, then I would obviously pick Doctor Who and Blake's 7. Also, I named myself after a trilogy of serials from the 1950s (and a fourth in the 70s) about scientist Bernard Quatermass. There's also The Prisoner and Monty Python's Flying Circus.

I have been watching the Rockford Files- I like the hip, 70s guy machismo of James Garner, the story of a guy living in a trailer, solving crime and seducing a beautiful client each episode.

Some others:
M*A*S*H
Bewitched
The Incredible Hulk

I agree with sluice about this one. I didn't watch it at the time but sure enjoy it now. I covet the trailer.

Some I did watch:
The Wild, Wild West
Get Smart
The Avengers (of course)
The Man from U.N.C.L.E
Mission Impossible

Vintage to me would be anything at least 20+ years ago so pre 1990's tv.

Some additions to my faves list:

Dangerman
Suave Patrick McGoohan is NATO's best--perhaps only--operative. Great sets, late 50's/early 60's cars, a succession of dignified, faultlessly groomed women who are aided, rather than rescued.

New Avengers
Unlike many Avengers fans, I enjoyed this. Joanna Lumley kickboxing--what's not to like?

The Protectors
Expensively shot on location, frequently Venice. Museum quality mahogany powerboats and vintage Volvos. Nyree Dawn Porter plays a charming contessa.

Sapphire & Steel
Joanna Lumley again, here paired with David McCallum, who plays the diva.

Are You Being Served?
My sentimental favorite. John Inman proves that great acting is as much movement as words.

Hogan's Heroes & the early half of MASH are the best ones. The first seasons of Get Smart are pretty good as well.
