What's on TV? Monday, May 11, 1970




I would have been 10 years old and living halfway across the contiennt when this TV Guide from Portland, Oregon came out (I'll let you do the math); and while school wouldn't yet have been out for the summer, I couldn't help but be reminded of how summer meant, at least some of the time, watching the daytime TV shows that you couldn't see otherwise because you were wasting time in school, having your individualism quashed. I mostly remember the game shows; I was never one for getting involved in the stories that my mother watched. But there's also Joan Rivers and her talk show on KATU; would I have watched that if it had been available in the Twin Cities? Maybe; I remember seeing Virginia Graham's Girl Talk. And of course every city had some kind of matinee movie, or even one in the morning like Abbott & Costello's Buck Privates on KPTV. And don't forget What's My Line? on KGW; maybe that's where I first saw Soupy Sales. But then, I'm sure you have memories of your own—maybe the listings from today will bring some of them back for you, too. I don't miss school, but I do miss summer vacation, that time when you can be a kid and not worry about anything. I won't be able to get back there until I retire. Which, if you did the math at the outset, you know isn't that far away.
