Re: Whatever happened to...?

I still hit the side of the TV. All it does is make me feel better.

Re: Whatever happened to...?

Who remembers watching that late night scrambled "porn" on WDCA Channel 20? "I think I saw a nipple!!!"

C'mon don't act like you didn't do that in between visits to your Commodore 64

Scrambled porn? That would have been "Super TV" which was broadcast over some UHF channel but it wasn't 20. You needed a decoder box and I think it was on channel 50 before there was the current channel 50.

Update: Wiki has the answer.

Re: Whatever happened to...?

Oh man! My childhood has finally returned to me! Man...do I miss the late 70's/80's! Ultraman, Schoolhouse Rock, Punky Brewster (yes she is very hot now,) Night Court, etc.....

Kind of reminds me of that time machine thread i posted several months ago. This type of stuff is what I'd like to go back for!
