12. I remember watching it

Sun Sep 8, 2019, 10:06 AM

Sep 2019

with my best friend when I would spend the night in the tiny village her grandmother lived in. I now live there coincidentally. I did not get to really watch them until much later. My parents, for some reason, would not let us watch it. I was in Jr. High so I am guessing it was because there was some "tough guy" show on another channel. My mother could never get enough of watching men smash other people around. LOL Wasn't Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea with Richard Basehart on right before that? We did get to watch that.

I must boast here that I watched them all when they were originally aired pecosbob Sep 2019 #9

That's the way episodic television was back then. Dave Starsky Sep 2019 #19

Part of the reason was to make it work in syndication. Beartracks Sep 2019 #56
