What's the first TV show you remember watching?

We can go with two categories if necessary: animated and non-animated.



As a little kid, I remember the non-animated shows more than the cartoons. I have vague memories of seeing The Red Skelton Show live, as well as an old Three movie on a Saturday afternoon. At the age of six, I pondered becoming a variety show host. I also have vague memories of The Courtship of Eddie's Father, and I greatly admired the bachelor upstairs neighbor who had the beads instead of a door. And of course, Wonderful World of Disney, which was quite interesting but also annoyingly void of cartoons to be full of such cartoon potential.

On the cartoon front, I remember greatly enjoying Wacky Racers, which I believe is where Dastardly Dan and Muttley got their start. My mom worked in a day-old bread store, and she had a little portable TV that she would set up in the back (inventory) room, where I would watch cartoons on Saturday morning.

What was the one with the Olympics theme, where all the characters got together to do 'battle of the network stars.' I remember Grape Ape, and who was that dog that chuckled to himself, . . . Mutley?

Looking back, they just took stock footage from other HB shows, put them on a running track, and put javelins and shotputs in their hands.

EDIT: Laff-a-Lympics



Used to watch that whenever I went to grandparents.

1952 Democratic convention. Only 2 channels. CBS NBC. Convention on ALL day long. Nothing else. Every speech. My mother watched it all.

And yeah, you got me by a few, lol. Never saw that mess above. I think Underdog is likely the first cartoon I can remember, along with Tom and Jerry.

The element of surprise must have been tremendous for the first commercial. I bet TV viewers took notes about it.
