Beautiful screen shots there. I watched it on a flat screen too, I'm sorry to say. I took time out of a busy night baking cookies for a Christmas party just to watch it. I wish they had done something special for the 50th anniversary.
I still have my family's first color TV, a GE 21" from 1969 in my living room. I had the party today and one person actually asked me if that was my main TV that I watched. Sadly, I haven't powered it up in years. I know I should use it and I still have analog cable, so I can still use the tuner to get the local stations. But something in me doesn't want to see it die.
I have fond memories of watching Rudolph on that TV. It was originally sponsored by GE and the elves in the show were also in the GE commercials. It was a first class job all around. For the show to still be broadcast after 50 years is nothing short of amazing in this day and time.
