I sucked in. The interiors are great. Costumes show the reality of clothing that was brushed more often than laundered. But, honestly, where is the smoking? The secret upstairs rooms? #hatm

My mother was an army brat with army brat parents and grandparents. My father was a natural adventurer and curious person. I just hope I’ve imbued my kids with their spirit. Trying now with grandkids

The little trolls ushered in ads on one f the channels. A othe had little hedgehogs. It was ‘60s, so maybe we only had 2 channels. Commercials came on in a clump, ca hourly. I didn’t have a tv in 70s when I was in college and seldom went to watch it

My parents would be flattered! We had tvs….. small b&w units. We even had one in Germany & watched, though the trolls, & moon landing thing I remember the most. We got our first color tv in about ‘70 when my father got back from Vietnam.

I gave up questioning teachers about the drills in about 2nd or 3rd grade. We moved a lot, but the drills were the same everywhere

I’m worried it might be too disturbing. I’m deeply conflicted. BTW, I was that Kindergartener who was openly dubious about the duck & cover drills. I think my father, who’d been involved in early nuclear testing was as truthful & clear as you could be w/ a 5 yo about the bomb.

I didn’t have a tv for Roots, but there were gatherings at peoples houses. We also didn’t have can a TV for The Day After, but I remember the impact it made. We got a tv in about ‘86. Lots of Sesame Street and old movies were out chief fare. I think we got a VCR at the same time
