This was the show to watch before I went to school in the morning.

You are right, 3 stations when I was a kid and my only disappointment was we couldn't get a 4th one out of Detroit. The thought of having 150 channels would have blown my mind.

OH, I am sad..........I"ll bet Natasha's in tears, too......I can't even imagine how ROCKY feels about this!

'Hey, Rocky. Watch me pull a rabbit out of this hat.'

'Bullwinkle, what, again?'

They were favorites of mine.

Chuck: Having 150+ channels on my 19" portable Sylvania tv set would've blown my mind too. On the other hand, knowing my parents, I wouldn't have been allowed to have a TV in my room with today's programming.

Z: Growing up, this was one of my favorite shows. Ahh, the memories.

Sue: Nothing up my sleeve... :-)

Patrick Carroll: Same here.

Awww, I loved Rocky and Bullwinkle. Did this guy have anything to do with Tennessee Tuxedo and Dudley Do-Right, too?

cube said...

BeckEye: Dudley DoRight yes. I'm not sure about Tennessee Tuxedo, but it sure has the same feel, doesn't it? His humor will be missed by many.
