( A household of Witnesses in the 1980s) 

 

My Dad liked Andy Griffith. I liked the music. 

 

My mom loved the Waltons. 

 I couldn't stand it. The music depressed me. The only part I liked was .. Gnite Jon Boy. 

 

My mom and dad watched Mash. The music depressed me. But I liked the helicopter.

 

My brother ( not a witness ) watched " Dallas". I liked the intro music. 

 

My sister ( a witness) watched Miami Vice. I liked the Music 

 

Me, the little kid. I watched the Cosby Show before going to meetings.

 

Then there were Mini Series. I specifically remember Lonesome Dove as a big deal. A man needs a leg to kick a pig! I remember laughing at that line. The snake scene scared me to death. 

 

 

 

Not sure if those are Boomer Tv. You old folks. 

 

I will leave out the movies i went to the neighbor kids house and watched.
