Where To Watch
Can you recognize your favorite black-and-white TV shows in full color?
Do the sets and characters look different in color?
Black-and-white cinematography is beautiful. The shadows of noir give it that extra grittiness. A 1950s living room just feels cozier and more familiar in black-and-white. Even Parasite, the most recent winner of the Oscar for Best Picture, is getting a release in black-and-white.
Some of the greatest shows in television history filmed in black-and-white. You know them best for the look.
But would you recognize them in full color? See if the sets and characters still ring a bell in a rainbow of colors.

I prefer The original Black and White. It was filmed in B&w, it should remain that way.

I've seen color pictures of the Addams Family set, it was mostly pink and some yellow. The reason was that it made the black and white film look better,
