Dean Martin and Jonathan Winters at The Bar – 1969 TV.
One day Dr. Wetbrain blurted out to Harold about his amazement on the advancement of technology in the last 6 decades.
In the 60s and 70s technology was very limited. Cellphone!? What the hell is that?! For communication in those days, we only had one house rotary dial phone with a short cord and at least 5 other households on the same party line. If your neighbor was on their phone you had to wait until they were60s and 70s tv shows, done to use yours. It was a guessing game. Each time you pick up the receiver to see if the phone line is open, you mostly hear, “Line busy!”
Television viewing was great on the large 18-inch color TV. Since you don’t know any better that the
quality and size made TV viewing more advanced. You only had 3 channels from your antenna reception input. That was OK for your channel changing dial only went to 12. The 60s and 70s TV shows were the best though with their innocent charm and humor. Shows like The Dean Martin Show, Carrol Burnett Show, I Love Lucy, Bewitched, Jetsons and Gilligan’s Island to mention a few.

Harold replied with, “I miss those good old simple days”.
