Thanks for the pleasant reminders.
Those were certainly the days..... Speaking of that, does anyboty remember the old SF series Believe it, or not ? How about the original Outer Limits? "Do not attempt to adjust your television." Bill Cahill

...An' the Outer Limits' "BEARS" that made any/all self-respecting 8 yr old pee his pants, they were so scary ?!? That's where all the modern version series' fall down, IMHO...They always have to give you a dose of New Age touchy-feely crapola, where the originals, all they wanted to do was scare the CRAP outta you...Story MUST take a backseat to PC sensibilities, nowadays...

I just had to re-watch the Twilight Zone episode being discussed! The TV appears to be a 16" roundie hidden in a hastily-improvised shell to avoid any noticing of the manufacturer, which was common practice at the time. The radio was an RCA Radiola 62 in Static, also featuring the late Alice Pearce. She played the first, and best "Mrs. Kravitz" in Bewitched, where, conversely, there was a Zenith in almost every room!

That was a 10" set. I think it was a Bendix.

I know this is a bit OT, but a lot of those science fiction and speculation shows really makes one think.
