“You got 9 out of 10

Fun quiz! About half of those were luck or process of elimination.

[radu]

Howdy, Allegra.

Ya gotta be old like us to have seen those shows. LOL

[luvie]

Hey Allegra! Good to see ya. Thanks for taking the quiz. You did great! Did you miss “Mr. Lucky” too? LOL!

[luvie]

True dat. Unless you watch the oldies channel. I don’t do that. LOL!

I’d rather watch True Crime.

[Allegra]

LOL - I’ve seen maybe half of those shows, if that. But I liked the ones I did - Lost in Space, Bewitched… Reruns of Petticoat Junction came on after school when I was a freshman/sophomore and my BFF (we’re still close friends to this day) and I watched it together and loved it.

I got lucky on “Mr. Lucky.” I’d never heard of that one, but it seemed to fit the description best.

I missed “The Rifleman” question. Go figure. 😄

One of my friends also likes to watch true crime.

[radu]

The oldies channels here don’t have much I care to watch.
There’s a pretty good old movies channel and today started off Halloween month with a bang. Been watching old horror movies all day. LOL

[luvie]

How could YOU of all people miss a show called “The Rifleman”? LOL!

You did great especially since you watched them “second hand”. :)

[Allegra]

My sister loved horror movies - the cheesier the better. LOL

I do love to watch old movies. I found “Casablanca” a couple of weeks ago and watched it for the first time in years. It surprised me at how much of it I’d forgotten.

[luvie]

Why am I not surprised that you are loading up on horror movies. LOL!

I watch zero from the oldies channels. I do love old movies from the late ‘39s to the very early ‘50s. I do like a few modern ones. VERY few!

As for TV shows. I’m hooked on BBC and other British channels that I watch on BritBox. It’s the only platform I’ve paid for, and I have totally gotten my money’s worth!

[radu]

The shows I’d like to see again are the creepier ones - - Dark Shadows, Twilight Zone, Outer Limits, Night Gallery, and though it wasn’t creepy, it was off-beat - Addams Family. I can watch that one, at least, on YouTube but the others just show up in short clips.
No one’s ever accused me of being normal. LOL

[E.G.C.]

A very pleasant good Wednesday morning and ((HUGS)) to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country and thanks Luvie for this morning's thread.

The planned power outage happened yesterday. We only got a few minutes notice. Thankfully it was only a few minutes long.

We had a great time at Chisolm Trail Park yesterday.

I also got 9 out of 10 on the quiz. Peter Gunn threw me off there.

How's everyone doing this morning?

[Allegra]

You did great especially since you watched them “second hand”. :)

I did see a couple of them in real time like Lost in Space. I was a little kid and loved it.

We were stationed overseas for three years and they didn’t have AFN TV back then. Nobody watched TV over there, so we missed a lot of shows. (But, surprisingly, we didn’t miss TV.) That happened to bite me on the butt sometimes several years later when playing Trivial Pursuit became all the rage. I always groaned if I got a TV question.
