I don't really know where to put this, but perhaps it will be seen anyway.
Since this is a TV based forum, I thought that just maybe some of you would find this site to be pretty entertaining. It is all about the history of TV, the shows, the stars, the sponsors etc. This guy has put together some really cool stuff & on a weekly basis he even goes back in time to an old TV guide & gives a synopsis of what was showing that week. There are lot's of old clips attached as well. If you grew up with TV like I did, I think you will find a lot of smiles.

There are tons of articles going back to posts he has been making over the past 6 or 7 years. There is a lot of good stuff.

Imagine if you will, a time when TV stations took pride in advertising an upcoming program being broadcast in color.

Jeez, I remember having only 3 channels: ABC, NBC + CBS. Then, years later we got Fox.

I remember cable channels having letters - the 'dirty' channel was channel 'J'. We had crazy Public Access Television back then. I miss those wacky shows.

I used to watch this show way back when! Dale, Roy, Pat, Trigger and Bullet, were so much fun to watch. Also as a kid, The Cisco Kid was on, Tales of Texas Rangers and Sky King.

Well, good for you for all of your surfing. It's amazing what's available on line these days. Truly! And sometimes you've just gotta surf and surf to come up with some gems.

I would love to tour this home! "The Bel-Air estate that was the most expensive house for sale in America in 2018 just dropped its price by $50 million. The “Chartwell” mansion is situated on 10.39 acres, and its exterior once served as the establishing shot for the CBS sitcom The Beverly Hillbillies, which aired from 1962 to 1971." Bel-Air Estate
