Oh my, this will really date me.

Shari Lewis and Lamb Chop

Howdy Doody

and I was just reminded today as I saw an Obit for Bob Keeshan, alias

Captain Kangaroo

I also watched The Lone Ranger and other saturday weeklys

What can I say, the first TV we owned was a round screen!

Blessings and laughter... :rolleyes:

Did you watch the Mickey Mouse club too?

Captain Kangeroo was the original Clarabel on the Howdy Doody show. I'm sure you knew that already.

Take care

Yes, I did watch the Mouseketeers! I wanted to be one.

And yes, I did know that Bob Keeshan was the original 'Clarabell.' What hit home today as I saw the notice of his death was that he was only 76 years old. I would have guessed older than that. (that is not much older than me, lol)

But then I can also remember the days before TV. Radio was so great for the imagination. Shows like "The Shadow" and of course, "Fibber Magee and Molly."

blessings,

Nell

Believe it or not

I'm walking on air

Never thought I could feel so free-ee-ee

Flyin' away on a wing and a prayer

Who could it be?

Believe it or not

It's just me!

Anyone like Seinfeld?

Believe it or not,

George isn't at home.

Please leave a message

At the beep.

I must be out

Or I'd pick up the phone.

Where could I be?

Believe it or not,

I'm not home.

I had that on my answering machine for the longest time.

God bless! :)

I don't know when it debuted, but I loved Thundercats, She-Ra, He-Man, Garfield, and the Care Bears. Talk about variety, eh?

i used to have the sheera castle :unsure:

My local UHF stations used to always carry the classic Looney Tunes cartoons, and CBS on Saturday mornings had 'em too in the form of "The Bugs Bunny - Road Runner Show". I also remember the Sid & Marty Krofft shows, especially "Sigmund" and "The Bugaloos".

Other cartoons from my childhood:

The Super Globetrotters

Saturday Supercade (cartoons based on video games like Donkey Kong, Pitfall, Q*Bert and Frogger)

Pac-Man (not part of the above show)

Smurfs

Fat Albert

Transformers

The Shmoo

The Mighty Mouse/Heckle & Jeckle Show

Y'all are making me go nuts. To hear about all of these good shows and to believe I missed them. I have never heard of most of these shows. Probably my favorite show as a small one was Ghost Busters. I was a Ghost Buster and my best friend was Egon. We even had a dance! ::Sigh:: The good ole days. We live on Ghost Buster Lake One and I even still have my backpack.

Was it the Filmation Ghostbusters... or "The REAL Ghostbusters"?

I'm guessing Filmation snagged the cartoon rights to the name before the makers of the film could. And when they made a cartoon that had absolutely nothing to do with the original film, the other guys struck back with a cartoon more faithful to the movie.
