The Evil Genius Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 I was a latchkey kid and TV was my babysitter. What images from TV have been burned into your psyche? I'll go first with 2 of them. One more. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 (edited) Specifically Ted's mannerism.. but typically it'll always bring m to him reading the awful story of the Death of beloved Children's TV host Peter Peanut during a downtown parade. Peter was shelled to death by a rogue elephant, and Ted read his catchphrase so deadpan over-the-top.. Salem's lot. Yeah, still the willies from this moment. I'm still surprised to this day that movie was made for TV. I loved it, but it was a straight up horror movie, and they didn't usually do that. ~Bang Edited February 1, 2023 by Bang 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PleaseBlitz Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 (edited) Technically, it was from TV. My teacher wheeled the TV cart into class so we could all watch. Edited February 1, 2023 by PleaseBlitz 6 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Columbia though Like 9/11 n Columbine I only saw the Columbia explosion later on the news. Challenger tho I watched in school like pretty much every kid my age did. Olympic Park Bombing at the 96 Olympics is another one I saw live tho n won't forget. Crazy ass Eric Rudolph. This here is another one that immediately comes to mind. I remember hanging out after work with my best friend smoking some ganja n watching this interview. Definitely changed my outlook at seventeen years old. 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So when all the generation 2 transformers debuted on the next season my brother and I were confused as all hell. 🤣 18 minutes ago, PleaseBlitz said: Also this. (OJ Bronco chase) Didn't get to see the car chase but got home from band practice right when AC n OJ pulled into the juices driveway. Not old enough to remember him as a player but he was all over tv n movies when I was growing up in the 80s. I believe that was the last day of my freshman year of high school. Almost two years after that I can still remember listening to the not guilty verdict on the radio in my public speaking class junior year.
