Where To Watch
Pick: What would you watch on TV in 1960?
Will you spend the evening in Bedrock or the Twilight Zone?
Do you remember the time before remote controls? There was no such thing as channel surfing. Sure, you could get up off the lounger, walk to the television set, and turn the knob… but it was it easier to just pick and channel and stick with it for the night.
With that in mind, we're taking you back to a time when (most) people did not have remote controls. The year is 1960. The TV schedule is filled with brilliant classics.
Pick one network, kick up your feet, and stick with it for the entire night. See how your tastes compare!

In 1960 I was 4 so I didn't have much say. Looking at these choices, my mom would have had me (I was the remote) change the channel a lot each night to watch assorted shows.
No way I would have stuck to one channel all night. I'm not a huge fan of westerns.

What if you split your viewing choices?
I purchased the complete box set of the Untouchables a couple of years ago and it proclaims they were on CBS.
Though the show aired originally on ABC, "The Untouchables" is distributed by CBS through Paramount which is a division of CBS.

91% is excellent!
We only had 2 channels, ABC and NBC, but one of them did get a few ABC shows that they showed on weekends. We didn't watch one channel all night, because I remember watching varying shows on the two channels in the same night. TV was wonderful back in the late 1950's and early 1960's. We were blessed and took it for granted. Glad METV has chosen to telecast some of the great old programs.
I really love your programming and I would love to request One Step Beyond to be on your lineup. I remember watching that show with my parents many years ago, thank you for your time
Let's be honest; on at least some nights I suspect people would have changed the channels before the end of the night.
I remember watching To Tell the Truth and Lawrence Welk as a little kid back in the 1970's. And I still occasionally watch a bit of Welk in reruns on PBS.
When we would go to visit my grandmother, she would always watch Lawrence Welk. She didn't watch that much TV, but whoever was there would be in the living room watching it. I would get bored and go outside.
100% for me.
