I do!!

Setting the digi-box to record something is still sometimes referred to as "video-ing" chez Andyk!

Then again I'm one of the slightly younger dinosaurs on this forum who remembers when a remote control was attached to the video by a cable!

A rose by any other name...

Your amusing story in re: attached cable remote reminds me of my first TV in America...we found it in the garbage and it was that huge console TV that didn't have any remotes but rather this huge knob that you had to click to get 2 channels which worked on that TV...yeah...you've come a long way, baby...

And do you remember how hi-tec it felt when you got your first one like that lol

Yeah! :))

With so many remotes these days I quiter like the retro idea ... iuf they're tethered to the gadget they control then there's potentially less chance of losing them!!

Yeah I remember those days, when TV's didn't have a remote and you actually had to get up out of your chair and turn the knob to change the channel or turn it on or off. Now I'm really going to show my age, I even remember when colour TV's first came out. Boy that was exciting!!!!

Well...I will show you all what real age is...I remember time WITHOUT TV...how's that for old???

(I need my head examined)

That must of been a bitch

I feel for you really I do

Hey...I've learned to read and play piano...so...dunno who is sorry for who...LOL...

Zina is exactly right.

but that was when kids did something productive with their time other than staring at a screen be it tv or computer.

If i had my way the tv wouldntbe on half as much as it is in our house, the noise drives me crazy sometimes!!

anji take your ipod off your be able to hear the tv ok then :)

I hate to be the spoilsport here, but does anyone have any more info if UD really aired on tv/was released on dvd?

No info on UD, RJ, but was going "ouch!" at Zina's description of early TVs. Getting up to change channels was the way it was 'back then'. And we didn't have many channels, either - at first, just 3 - CBS, ABC and NBC! I remember having trouble understanding why the actors/performers wore color costumes (colors showed in publicity pics in color print magazines or in-between the feature movie) when they were being televised in black and white!

Doing away-from-TV living was also still the norm back then; obesity was in the minority. McDonalds came later.

Seems like another century and another planet compared to now.
