Default Watching TV
When I was 5, I watched Howdy Doody on an old 12" Motorola mahogany cabinet tv. I remember when we got a black and white 21" tv. Remember curved screen color tv's?

I've had my new OLED tv for a week or so. Black is truly black. I'm seeing hues and colors I've never seen on a tv screen before. The definiton is incredible! I'm liking the new technology.

What's the oldest tv show you remember?

C'mon Rinty? Pop your magic clanger Froggie? What?

The oldest t.v. show I remember watching would be Batman.

My T.V. gave up the ghost so I am in the market for a new one. I'm going to move into the 21st century and get myself a flatscreen.
