Do you have a memory that is triggered by a tv show?

Ok, I am to young to have seen the first airing of them, but Dragnet, the Mary Tyler Moore show, Dick Van Dyke and Get Smart are all shows My father and I would watch during while helping my studying my spelling tests. Sometimes I will see an old rerun and I automatically think of the word and the spelling. :lol: I actually saw a past Episode of Dragnet the other day and caught myself spelling beautiful in my head. :-D

I used to rush home from school to watch Dark Shadows. That had to be the most low budget, worst show of all times but I loved it. I remember when the one actress's skirt actually caught on fire and "behind the scenes" people came scurrying out to put it out, seeing the wrinkles in the tarp that was supposed be the ground in the cemetery. The on fire woman didn't get hurt, she went on to be one of Charlie's Angels--the original. I don't remember her name but she was the one with straight dark hair.

Raptureready I remember the seams and all the shadows. I also remember seeing the camera and the microphones hanging in the scenes. Bad acting but I loved watching it with mom.

I remember that show too. I didn't realize one of the Angels was in it. I remember Barnabus and Quinton but not much else. I was about 12 I think.
I had to go look it up! Kate Jackson played Daphne Harridge in 70-71. I havent' gone back and watched any of it so I didn't realize she was in it.

Okay, here's a memory from the oldie! Dick Clark, American Bandstand. On 15 minutes after highschool let out. The "cool" kids stayed after school in the lounge so we could dance and watch. I can still hear the intro in my head, and see all of us trying the new steps. What a ball! PS... I'm talking when Bandstand was brand new to TV!!
