Well as kids, corny was cool, we were moving away from the western series fame of our parents, in to a brave new world of batman and star trek, bewitched and I dream of genie, corny, kids today or yesterday what corny did/do they have? I mean I don't watch TV so I really have no clue. Cartoons back then were bugs bunny and the road runner and all of that violence the SJW's of our time complained about.

Sort:  

Amazing! I don't watch TV either! Yet when I look into people's living rooms as I walk the dogs, I see TV's on everywhere. If I'm at someone's home and they have the TV on, I'm reminded why I hate watching TV... far too many commercials! I prefer to pop a DVD into the DVD player and watch with the ability to pause and rewind if I miss something and get the bonus of special features which are sometimes as interesting as the show itself.

Yep, all those adds, for awhile we had satellite TV and Cable TV, and 100+ channels, I never could find anything to watch at 1 am other than hour long commercials, DVD were a lot better to watch. I have run into the problem though of finding anything worth while to watch on Amazon or any new movies to watch, that is part of being retired I guess, no hearsay of what is good being produced.

And to make it worse, "good" can be something completely different for each of us.
I bought a lot of DVD's from Blockbuster when they closed up for $1 each and have piles of them that I haven't had the time to look at yet. Even if just 1 out of 5 is worth having, at $5 it's still a pretty good deal.
