Unsolved Mysteries. Dick van dyke. The honeymooners. The Unsolved Mysteries song still gives me chills. I still remember holding onto PawPaw so tight while it was playing. But I never asked for him to turn it off.

Grandparents on mom's side were Italian immigrants, I don't think they had a TV. They had money, they just did want one I guess.

Grandmother on dad's side had a damn color TV, In 1958 that made her a billionaire, Bonanza and football games were amazing.

I remember Saturday mornings watching 3 stooges and wrestling with my grandad. I’d do anything to get another chance to do that

Just like Chuck Norris, I don’t have grandparents, I just appeared.

The Price is Right, followed by Days of Our Lives, was a daytime staple for my grandma for ages.

She loved The Golden Girls, too.

My mom's side of the family (her parents and her grandparents:
We watched a ton of Cubs games. Every day, we got to watch Harey Carey butcher someone's name during the reading of the lineups.

We also watched The Bozo Show. They probably remembered watching it with my mom.

My dad's side of the family:
We visited each Monday for Monday Night Football. We'd stay until half time. Longer if it was a good game.

My grandparents had a new “color” TV and we’d often go watch Bonanza.
Those Ponderosa backdrops were beautiful.
