You can not go wrong with Joan Davis and Donna Reed. Both starred in great, wholesome programs.

I recall some years back (in the late 1980s), visiting a late relative’s home and they kept a stash of TV Guides from about five or six years earlier and I began casually leafing through one of them. And believe it or not, some station (in the Rochester NY locale) had I Married Joan on but it was at some ungodly hour like 3 or 4am, lol.

And I can remember from a visit to another relative’s place at about the same time, their locale (in rural British Columbia) got a TV station from Dallas TX as part of their cable package and this station from Dallas would show episodes of Death Valley Days in about the mid afternoon timeframe (another believe it or not, lol). Sometimes it’s interesting to think back to those years when TV stations were that good bit more independent in their operations and some would show interesting old classics like those. And it seemed that that was often the case when you got out of the larger city/urban area where you grew up and went to these smaller towns where other family lived.
