Who has the middle of the days/mornings for watching TV, pray tell?

Which leads to the secondary of what do all these thugs in Portland, etc., do for a living when they're not out vandalizing and looting and pillaging???

I've been giggling over Lisa last month or two--never saw most of them when were on originally.

Carol Burnett is better than the evening news about 90% of the time so she's been getting her innings as well, hit 'n miss, when they're doing nothing but obsessing over COVID on news (which is most of it, these days). What am I supposed to do with that...nothing I can do about Miami or Houston/Dallas...

I can relate to that. I think I fell asleep watching the Saturday night horror movies, And there was no way to record them.

When I was little, I watched tv on my belly with my head resting on my hands, my elbows on the floor. But my arms got too long. I really missed that position for a long time.

On that last point, Jack Webb made sure of that. :) He had some strong opinions on hippies, drugs, things like that, and those things made it into the show.

I really like Gunsmoke and Rifleman.

I think Gunsmoke still holds the record for longest running show.

The Simpsons hold the record. Then Law & Order: Special Victims Unit Then Gunsmoke tied with Law and Order

I like the Rifleman, but what gets me is that no matter how old his kid gets or as many times as he sees his father in trouble, he still doesn't know what to do. He's a wimp. One time he threw his father the gun instead of shooting the guy himself Wasted time, and what if he didn't catch it.

I thought Dragnet was pretty corny the first time around.

Yes, it was not authentic like Broderick Crawford in Highway Patrol.

10-4 ;-)

All of those shows have run at one time or another in the last year or so, including Sea Hunt. I still have a few Highway Patrol episodes on my TiVo
