NOSTALGIA : Programs You Watched as a Kid
« on: April 03, 2022, 06:29:06 pm »
When I was very young I loved watching Shirley Temple. It obviously impacted my life.  My kids tease me; to this day, I say "Oh my Goodness", one of her lines.

I also loved watching Heidi.  I'm not sure if either is available to watch these days.

Ahh....The Little Rascals or was it Spanky and Our Gang?  I loved the show!!  Although I thought Alfalfa was annoying.

Another one I watched and loved.  They just don't make good, clean, wholesome wonderful shows anymore.  Far from it.

In looking back, I liked just about anything my parents would let me stay up and watch.  The only show I really couldn't stand was "I Love Lucy".

I was young and the Twilight Show and Alfred Hitchcock creeped me out.

I have heard ... that once upon a time ... all televisions were black and white. I guess this must be true.
And if you sit too close to the TV it would cook your brain with radiation. And all TV shut off at midnight.
Everybody smokes. No car seats for infants. No seat belts. Cars that max at 150mph.

Drinking in the morning and at lunch and for dinner. I'm surprised you guys are still alive. You are the few and the lucky. Just living through all that makes you all supermen - person - undesignated gender classification.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

It is a wonder we survived eating real food like eggs, bacon, sausage, whole milk, lots of red meat, butter and fried our food.

We had black and white for quite awhile and would gather at my uncle's house to watch TV in color.

My first exposure to music. I was in a crib and could not walk. My father played this album all the time. It is a recessive memory for me. Could not tell you about the song or anything about anything. But I remember this song.

Exactly!

Remember back when they decided that smoking would no longer be allowed on shows and commercials? Funny how you won't find smoking on shows but you will find nudity, vulgarity, swearing and extreme violence.

@mystery-ak  @Elderberry  just think how fortunate we are to have grown up in such times.  We were free, believed in patriotism, God was still in our schools, most people went to church on Sundays and life was simple.
