[Ocelot II]

2. This one:

Yup. Every time Grandma came to visit.

[WestMichRad]

4. Woo hoo!!

I’m entitled to compensation, too!

[Grokenstein]

7. Aw, I liked Lawrence Welk.

I mean, I probably wouldn't watch it today, but way back then we lived in the sticks, only had one channel, and it was either this or arguments that ended in violence. Believe me, Welk's show was something I looked forward to.

10. That's got a lot of stuff packed into it.

If it was your reality, I feel for you.

Otherwise it sounds like the beginning of a humorous tale.

I think we had 3 channels. Every now and then we'd watch Lawrence Welk for a bit but the cloying schtick got too much. Now Perry Como...

11. I can relate.

My father was a musician from that era and it was one of the few times he wouldn't be yelling at one of us or finding some work for us to do. I pretended to be interested in the show just to keep him happy.

14. Whenever Grandma visited she *had* to watch Lawrence Welk,

and IIRC there was some other show on at the same time that we kids wanted to watch, but Grandma had seniority (literally), so we just whined about how the music was dumb and awful until we were told to be nice and let Grandma enjoy her show.

18. Better than most everything on nowadays.

Arthur Duncan was the man. An' a one, an' a two...

19. I lived with my grandma! But, grandpa liked all the westerns, so it balanced out.

26. We had to watch Lawrence Welk every Saturday night.

Finally it got replaced by Sha Na Na, and my dad heard how good a tenor the little guy named Johnny was. After that we always watched Sha Na Na.

I laughed out loud at a few of them, but would never be able to pick only one favorite.
