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.

I thought it was Dick Dastardly. And don't forget Penelope Pitstop.

Wow, never heard of that one. Reminds me of the Monster movies with Godzilla. I loved coming home from school and KCTV 5 would be playing Monster Movie week.

Loved Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom as a kid. I've always been into nature and exotic animals. I still enjoy stuff like that on Nat Geo.

Ah those heady days. I recall the afternoon monster movie weeks on KCTV5 myself.

Bet you watched this every Saturday as well. Lord knows I did.

Not sure I can remember what show I first saw, but I think I can remember which show/s I first listened to crying in my bedroom.

I always got in trouble right around the holiday season and the parents punished me by grounding me from the Peanuts and Rankin/Bass specials on TV. I probably got grounded from watching Wizard of Oz a time or two as well.

Parents played it to the hilt, too. Closed my door, but raised the volume. Gave my sister a seat in the middle of the room with a bowl of popcorn and a soda.

I was a hellion as a 4-5 yo, though, so. . .

It's amazing how many Scooby Doo rip offs there were in the 1970s. Speed Buggy, Captain Caveman, Hong Kong Phooey, Jabberjaw, The Funky Phantom, Goober and the Ghost Chasers, etc
