You may not have a remote, but you have control. That's right, it's time to play "What Would You Watch?".
The year is 1962, and the TV schedule is packed with classics. The only problem is, you have to get up and turn a knob to change the channel. So you might as well settle on one.
Let's go through the listings and see what's on. Pick the show you'd want to watch and see how your selections stack up against the others. There's no way to lose here!

Since I was five years old at the time, I really didn't have much say. BTW. Wasn't Twilight Zone a Friday night show before moving to Thursday? Which was done for the final season?
I wouldn't be born until 1964.
62% similar...mostly because we always watched the Westerns at my house.

I got 50% similar. But I can tell you this, I watch most of these.
