Sorry, but no. Cross-posting here!
The early TV sitcom Mary Kay and Johnny was the first television series to portray a married couple who slept in the same bed.
As I said previously: Who?
On American TV, who was the first husband and wife shown sharing a bed?
BTW, I know it isn't nice to say, but Fred and Wilma weren't real people... |

As I read that I kept thinking, "What station was that? I've never heard of it." and, of course, "Who?"
They got it done before everyone got uptight about it.

I remember going to someone's house with my friends after school to watch this trippy new children's TV show called "Sesame Street."

I'm getting older when I can remember:
1. I remember not having cable t.v. until I was 15 years old.
2. Not having a remote control until I was 15 years old.
3. The old Tootsie Roll commercial ("whatever it is I think I see...Becomes a Tootsie Roll to me")...remember that cartoon commercial???
4. When Nolan Ryan was with the Houston Astros.
5. When Terry Bradshaw was still playing football.
6. I remember when Ricky Nelson was killed in that plane crash (New Year's Eve 1985).
7. I remember when Ronald Reagan was almost assassinated (the shooter was John Hinckley, Jr.).
8. When Mary Lou Retton was a gymnastics champion in the '84 Olympics.
9. When Willie Nelson and many other artists were playing a concert called Farm Aid.
10. "We Are The World" came out.
11. The space shuttle blew up (with Christa McAuliffe was on board).
12. Aerobics (Jane Fonda aerobics) was a popular way to lose weight and get toned.

I am so old I remember the movie, 'The Outlaw' starring Jane Russell. My cousins and I were not allowed to go to the movies to see this picture. At the time it was thought to be way to risque for youngsters.  |

I remember when Nolan Ryan came up as a rookie with the Mets ... and that infamous day when the Mets traded him (and three other players) for Jim Fregosi! What an awful deal that was! |

I remember my girlfriends and I going to the movies for about eighteen Friday nights in a row to see that cute blond guy in "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid."
(The other guy was too old)
