Space 1999. It is like "Star Trek" but on Valium. No that is another Gerry Anderson series UFO |

The Lucy Show season 1 episode 9: Lucy Puts Up a TV Antenna That's a good one, but two of my personal favorites are from the original I Love Lucy. One is where her and Ethel take apart and try to put back together a backyard barbeque because she thinks her ring is cemented into it, and the other one is when she's on a plane with a huge tube of cheese, pretending it's a baby, to avoid duty tax. The mind is a weird and mysterious place |

Nice. Thanks for that, James. Now if I can just find a few old episodes of "Betty and Bob". ~My mom loved that radio soap as a kid. The mind is a weird and mysterious place |

Now this is cool; I just found ~ Radio Mystery Theater. I can apparently download the programs to CD's so I can take the disc in the living room and listen to it! The mind is a weird and mysterious place |

Well seems I must have been a UFO fan The SHADO HQ was famous for the girls with purple hair. No the SHADO HQ was famous for people with fairly normal hair MOONBASE was famous for girls with purple hair. And Sky-Diver for people wearing string vests These things matter to a fan. |

Just watched a episode of UFO. The costumes were unique to each place the people worked. |

But of course you can't be a REAL scifi fan unless you were there in 1953 following Jet Morgan and Journey into Space on the radio! Or more probably in those days the wireless. So called because it didn't have any! Well only those to the plug as against the telegraph :-) It would be difficult for me to have been there, since my parents were in about 7th grade at the time.

them dark ages. Look, we were born back when the whole world was in black and white, not the "Dark Ages!" Why back in 1953 I almost lost my virginity, I only missed by just 20 years or so. |

But of course you can't be a REAL scifi fan unless you were there in 1953 following Jet Morgan and Journey into Space on the radio! :-) LOL. Well I was born in 52. We never had a TV set until 57. I think the screen was the same size as a kidle. Black and white only. Then in 1962 my grandfather bought a color TV. It was a 21 inch. The first color show I ever saw was the wizard of Ozz. At my house we didnt get a color TV untill 1969. Thats when we got my grandfathers old tv set. I never saw Star Trek in color. In 1976 I bought an RCA 25" color TV it was like furniture. Cost me my income tax refund, But i had that TV until 1983. No, Im not knocking you young folk, But I could still get off my ass and change a channel by hand if I had to, Or put a tape in a VHS machine. Or play a record on a turntable, Or even thread a tape on a reel to reel. But to be honest I have to ask my Grandkids how to do certain functions on my smart phone. The last 20 years have seen a giant leap in technology. And I like that you can see just about any show ever made on you tube or the equivalent. [/quote] Old James |
