When I started this thread I posed the question because when I grew up in the 50's there were no distractions like cell phones, computers, vcr's, cable tv and life was much more basic. Like many kids of that time I grew up with all the kid favorites of that era. One day my dad to me to a tv store and there it was a tv running that had a show on in living color. After that every time I saw the Peacock on tv the envy started to build. Color tv was about as out of place as having a UFO land in your front yard. Those sets were big, clunky and had the usual reliability issues, but one thing was clear, those who had sets were fans of color forever.
