It was 1971 before we got our first television. We were so excited. Some of our favorites were The Big Valley, Bonanza, The Rifleman, Here Come the Brides, Bewitched, I Dream of Jeanie, Gilligan’s Island & Star Trek – although dad hated it when we watched it, he didn’t like the weird aliens. Always told us it wasn’t real and we were wasting our time because God didn’t make creatures like that!
