TEEVEE

[Elspode]

The great thing about modern cable/satellite is that pretty much *all* those great old shows are available at one time or other, so you can re-experience the nostalgia should you choose to do so. Granted, we'll probably never see the really obscure ones, 'cause if they didn't make money way back when, they probably won't now, but still...we have lots of choices these days.

My favorite ancient TV memories? Winky Dink and Me (you put a plastic cover on your TV and drew on it, making a picture that then became part of a scene in the show), The Banana Splits, Sky King, The original Mickey Mouse show with Annette, Cubby, et al ("Meeska, Mooska, Mousketeer; Mouse Cartoon Time Now is Here!"), Superman with George Reeves as The Man of Steel, The Tonight Show with Steve Allen...and Captain Kangaroo.

I'd use up all of UT's bandwidth if I went on.
