In the earlier episodes, they didn't have their first color set quite yet. One that I remember was when the set broke down just before what I seem to recall was one of Archie's news appearances. In that episode, the repairman came to the house but couldn't work late enough to fix the set that night because he was Jewish and couln't work past sundown. There were some references to "when we finally get a color set" and I remember that the trouble with the set was "one line fuse blown and 1B3 tube out" which sounded like B/W set trouble to me. There was also one of those Panasonic 1.5" pocket sets featured in that episode, not working because of dead batteries.
