Adventures of the Road-Runner (Short 1962) (1962)

We had a bigger one growing up, can’t remember the actual size, was on a stand though, remember that, not really big though, remember watching a lot of cartoons on it, creature features stuff, Dark Shadows (had to sneak that though, was told I couldn’t watch that, it ‘gave me nightmares’, but never had a single one…), probably a 13 inch, give or take. Can’t remember the brand though. Worked really well, was a lot of baseball games played on that, growing up.

Was raised in Jersey, so the Met’s and the Yankees were the 2 big teams that got watched a lot, and we normally were able to get a pretty good picture of those most of the time. Of course, that was before the advent of cable and things like ESPN, and that all got monitized…

I remember watching Dark Shadows after school (first grade and on) with my Mom; I think it was the shared experience that helped make it so memorable. I know the TV was B&W and small, but I remember the story and characters… my mind really filled in the blanks.
I still have the LP and 45. Listening to the soundtrack on YT now.
Thanks for the memories!
