I remember when they'd play the national anthem....and then sign off at night!

[John Brown]

We used to watch the test pattern in the morning while waiting for the stations to start broadcasting, and then again after the last program went off at night. Yep, them were thrilling times.

Dug the Corvette's in Route 66 with Martin Milner, later to star in Adam 12.

[njsteve]

Milner, and his co star George Maharis.

This was an extra credit question on a law school criminal law exam I took decades ago.

It simply said: &quot;Name the actors who portrayed Buzz Murdock and Todd Styles on Route 66?&quot;

I was the only who got the extra 5 points. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

Everyone seems to have overlooked &quot;Bandstand&quot;, as in American Bandstand. Bandstand info on wiki
One of our local stations carried it way earlier than 1957 but I can't seem to recall who the front man was. We even had a local version called &quot;Hoosier Favorite&quot; that was on on late Saturday afternoons, with dancing and records and local bands. It was a part of growing up in the 50's.

[m22mike]

Yes it was, thanks for dusting off my memory [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
