Default Childhood TV Memories...

As rec.boats is no longer a newgroup devoted to discussions about boats,
boating and related subjects, I thought it might be fun to intro
a new topic that hopefully will not become "bait" for the usual
collection of thread destroyers here.

So...

When you were a little kid (say, five to 10 years old), what were your
favorite TV shows, or, at least, shows that were shown on TV? (That
would allow inclusion of that "B" movies that were serialized for the
small screen.)

For a little while, I liked Howdy Doody, but I never had the patience
for the slow movement of the show.

I loved Kukla, Fran and Ollie; the Lone Ranger; Hopalong Cassidy; Tom
Corbett, Space Cadet; Mr. Wizard, and a few others. When I was a bit
older, I watched the Mickey Mouse Club. I thought the show was inane,
but I had the pre-teen hots for Annette, the first girl I "saw"
regularly who had tits.

Also listened at night to my little radio to tune into The Lone Ranger.
Now *that* was a great radio show.

What were your favorites?

Odd. If my dad owned a boat yard and shop, I'd spend all my waking hours
there. TV was for rainy days when you couldn't be outside doing things.

Well, well, well...it didn't take you long to try to trash the
discussion, did it? It's too bad you're hiding behind that skirt of
anonymity.

than you do.

On Tuesday and Wendsday night. Batman, and always Soupy Sales, and
sometimes we could get "Cowboy Bob" in Indianapolis on Channel 4.

Soupy Sales was *the* big hero in Huntington, West Virginia. He lived
there for a while. Don't ask me how I know that.

Cowboy Bob is another show with which I have no familiarity.

Are you familiar with the radio personality, Ed Walker? He has a
syndicated public radio show called the Big Broadcast, on which he plays
radio comedy and drama shows from the 30's, 40's and 50's. It's fun to
visualize in your mind's eye what only your ears are picking up.

William Conrad was another ubiquitous radio personality. I think his
most notable radio role was as Matt Dillon on "Gunsmoke."

"The Time Tunnel" was another show that I enjoyed. It lasted only a
season, I believe. And then, there was "The Man from U.N.C.L.E..."

Everything seemed to stop on campus the night The Man from Uncle was on.
Huge crowds wherever there was a big screen color tv.

I didn't think much of that series, though I don't remember why. I did
like Mission Impossible. A distant cousin or uncle of my first wife was
a regular in the series in its early years, but I never met him.

Conrad was great on the radio. He had a voice you could not forget.
