One of my favorite shows was Bewitched. I would pray and ask God to make me magic like Samantha.

I love Endora, how when Samantha was vaccuuming, Endora would pop in and say, "Oh what drudgery! Lets fly to Paris for lunch."

RaeRae - can you wiggle your nose like Samantha? or did you just try to blink like Jeanne in "I dream of Jeanne"

Guilty of both!!!!

I remember watching Bonanza and Maverick on Sunday nights with my mom. I learned to love the bad boys at an early age !

Mayberry, My Friend Flicka, Johnny Quest, Underdog, yes I remember them all !~

And popcorn my dad made on the stove.

As much as I try - I can never make that popcorn on the stove taste as good as it did when my Mom made it on the stove.

Do you remember going to the movie with a big brown paper bag filled with popcorn? My Dad was in the Army & worked part-time at the Movie House (as he use to call it) and they would let his kids go watch the movies & my Mom would pop a big batch of popcorn put in a brown paper bag for us to eat while we watch a double feature - Disney's New Releases - Like the Computer Who wore Tennis Shoes & Blackbeard's Ghost!

Dean Jones - my first "crush" on a movie star & a older man - I was doomed from the start!!

Does anyone remember a short lived TV show called "Then came Bronson"?

It was about this guy who drifted around on his harley with a sleeping bag and never combed his hair.

I had a huge crush on him as a kid.

Anyone remember being totally in love with Jan Michael Vincent? He was in a Disney Movie or 2~

What a cute site! It did bring back memories. I always believed Bugs Bunny was a genius!

The black and white reminds me of a couple of years ago, my boys (now ages 6 & 7) and I were looking at old photos of my family.

My oldest asked me when did I turn "color"? He asked how long I stayed "black and white" (like in the pictures with my brother and sisters)!!

I'm ONLY 41!!!


Thanks for the 'memory' post!

I liked Jeanne, I think my father had a crush on her. She was the first girl to bare her stomach on tv wasn't she? One of my favs was Little House On The Prarie.

Jan Michael Vincent? He is one of us!

This thread makes me smile every time I read it.

Was I the only one whose heart skipped a beat every time I saw Troy Donahue? He wasn't a great actor, couldn't sing, appeared in only mediocre movies....but those eyes!!

He put the "hunka" in "Hunka Hunka Burnin' Love"

Oh lordy, I went looking for a picture to post here and see that poor Troy was an addict...read it and weep.

I always liked the westerns because I liked to wathc the horses. Rawhide was good and one of the first movies my parents took me to as a kid was "how the West was won."

good stuff.

And while it was b4 my time, Gone with the Wind is a Masterpiece as is Dr. Zivhago and Lawrence of Arabia.

OH Elana, I loved the westerns & horses too. And when someone got shot and the horse fell down, I would cry because I thought the horse was hurt!

We had a local television show here called Duane Ellett and Floppy. Floppy was this goofy dog puppet... but he was wonderful ! The show came on at noontime every day- a bit of news and then those glorious cartoons.

The day that John F. Kennedy was killed is forever etched in my mind - I ran to my mom and asked why someone killed our president, and when were the cartoons coming back on? (I was 4...)
