Actually parents never watched when my husband and I were first married in the 70's we watched ,it was light hearted and our favorites were Guy and Raina.
With Myron Florin on the accordion, and the Lennon Sisters. I admit I had a 8 yr old's crush on the youngest Lennon Sister, seeing her was the high point of the show ... for me.
Yup... I also remember watching 60 minutes, meet the press, ECT.ect. Dad ruled the roost and we kids were the remote control. During those times, I believe we could get about 7 channels out of D.C. and 2 OUT of Baltimore. ( maybe 2 or 3 on P.b.s. ) the good old days...
2:50 Channel 20 was for kids if you got the chance to watch it. I could't tell you now what was on that channel but it seemed to be set up for kids rather than adults.
I was around 16 yrs old and I hated it. Well maybe not hate but I didn't watch. It was toooo cutesy. Besides no one I knew could afford all those fancy clothes they were showing off. I'm just glad someone out there enjoyed it. 😂😂😂😂
As I remember, it was on Saturday evening. I remember watching it at my Grannys in Western Pa. We were only there for visits on Saturday night as Friday and Sunday were travel days.
Jo ann Castle!

ReplyDeleteYep, and “Hee Haw” was right before it - I remember because the babysitter would show up at that time when my parents went out
DeleteYes, had to watch it while grandma and grandpa played ROOK with my mom and dad.
ReplyDeleteI had to watch it, it was pure torture.
ReplyDeleteTorture yeah right ! The variety show was awesome ! No one you or me or anybody knew could tap dance like that black man !!!!
ReplyDeleteDidn't HAVE to watch it with my parents. It was the only channel / show we could get on Sunday night.
