Today marks the 50th anniversary of my top two all-time favorite television series, THAT GIRL and STAR TREK. Both series premiered on Sept. 8th, 1966. The former ran for five seasons and the latter, famously for three. That first night I was seven years old and didn't have control of the TV set--a black and white one, I should add. My parents chose for us to skip STAR TREK in favor of the highly touted TAMMY GRIMES SHOW. Never heard of it? It was canceled after a month. We watched THAT GIRL from beginning, though. We didn't see much STAR TREK until Season three.
I first came across That Girl via one of your blogs. I'm now just at the end of season 3 and have loved almost every episode. Thanks for turning me on to it.
ReplyDelete66 was a great year for sure. Me & my brother enjoyed The Monkees, Batman, and The Smothers Brother's Show, although I can't remember when they premiered.
