Day # 6 of the 30 Day Television Challenge
Oct. 2nd, 2020 08:09 pmOkay, I'm going to repeat three rules for this rec challenge:
1. Don't pick a television show you've already selected in another category.
2. Don't pick a television show that someone else already posted or pick in that category. You can however pick one that they picked in another category. (ie. If A picks Parks & Recreation in Day 1, B can pick it in Day 5, but A&B can't both pick it in Day 5.)
The point of this is to rec a broad range of shows.
3. Do not choose two different television shows in a category - unless otherwise notified. There are a few categories that picking two different television shows may be required.
If you don't like the rules? You can do your own meme. My journal, my rules. (I don't control much at the moment - but I can try to control this or at least try to - telling other people what to do is akin to talking to cats. I told that to my mother once... "Do you have something against cats?" So, uh, no offense to cats intended.]
This is Day #6 of the 30 Day Television Challenge
The prompt for this one shouldn't be a problem regarding the rules..posted above.
A talk show, variety show, or stand-up comedy show (old or new)
Hmm...before John Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Trevor Noah, David Letterman and Conan O'Brien there was...
I watched at more than one sleep over as a kid - it was considered a special treat to stay up late and watch the Tonight Show, right before the network sign off - which was the pledge of allegiance and then static. That didn't change until the advent of cable in the 1980s.
I remember watching the last episode of the Tonight Show with my brother's best friend one night. We looked at each when it was done, nodded and said good night. He's now the head of the Kansas City Art Institute Animation Department.
Weirdly I watch very little of it now. Possibly with all the cable shows, and the overabundance of information - the talk shows have lost their appeal. I don't know.
