We didn't get a color TV until 1972!🫤

I grew up in an abusive household. I never got to watch tv, except what my dad wanted to watch. I hated school on Monday morning, when all the kids would be talking about The Wonderful World of Disney. I rarely got to see it. I kind of gave myself a second childhood raising my children...made sure they had fun. Now I'm a grandma and I love watching old shows...

I haven't watch TV in years..

We still had a black & white tv in 1965, but it was a treat to go vivit our aunt and uncle's home to see Disney and Bonanza in color. On some Sundays my dad would go out and buy Sandy's hamburgers for a treat while watching the ABC Sunday Night Movie. Fond memories indeed!

Our family, too! We would visit Grandma's on Sundays for dinner, Disney & Bonanza in color. Then once a year we'd also watch The Wizard of Oz (I still remember being freaked out by the Flying Monkeys!), The Ten Commandments, and the Charlie Brown specials, depending on the season. Did they make you sit at least six feet away from the color set because of the "radiation"? Edit: we sometimes got lunch at Sandy's after church, since they were located on the same street.

I bet this was amazing back in the day. Going from black and white to color. Most families probably didn't get a color TV until several years later. TV stations did the same thing in the 80's when we got stereo and in the 90's when we got HD.

Sundays, in our home, were all about The Wonderful World of Disney and Ed Sullivan. My favorite Disney episodes included Kilroy with late Warren Berlinger and The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh (the theme song still haunts me 60 years later) with the late Patrick McGooghan. Also Gallagher with Harvey Korman and a young actor who I can't quite remember, though on whom I had a little crush...Fun memories...

In the words of Cher: “If I could turn back time...”

The Bonanza theme always sent shivers down my spine....9pm Sunday night, and I forgot to do my homework!

And when i hear the Bonanza theme, i then think to myself, "see the U S A in your Chev ro lay!" It was almost like the Chevy commercial was part of the theme. In a way, i guess it was, and their intention. I also reckon it worked since I eventually bought one as my first new car.

I remember Sundays and the Wounderful World of Disney, I watched a lot of the shows that are on this video, but then again I am 60 and I love these videos. My favorite was Canded Camera now that was a funny show. Wish some of the shows that I grew up with were still on. Love from Marysville, California

Holy Sh!t!!! This takes me back to about 2nd or 3rd grade!! I remember all this sh!t like it was yesterday. I was singing along with the themes songs after all these years.

Definitely the best TV!

The ABC Sunday Night Movie opening is from 1975.

Thank you VERY much for this. I especially enjoyed the surreal treatment of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea and the ABC color logo used prior to Fall 66. It looked great. Also enjoyed the commercial notice on the late Nite CBS panel show. Sunday, what a nite. Always good to have the Disney World of Color display, the Bonanza theme and ABC s movie "theme", regardless of vintage. And, Perry Mason on Sunday. Nice print of the opening of Wackiest Ship In The Army.

Bob You might be recalling the Voyage movie (1961) debut on the old ABC Wednesday Night Movies. It had two servings there, March 67 and a summer rerun maybe in July.

In the fall of 1965, ABC started programming an "all-color" Sunday night lineup as well- even though about half of their evening schedule was still telecast in black and white. "THE SUNDAY NIGHT MOVIE", though, continued to present a mix of older black and white and color theatrical films (I believe it was a 50/50 mix).

I was just 3. We didn’t get a color TV until 1967.

For the first time- ALL of NBC's Sunday night programming for the fall of 1965 was in full color. They decided to promote themselves as "The Full Color Network" that season by scheduling almost all of their prime-time programming in "Living Color" [the exceptions were "I DREAM OF JEANNIE" {they didn't believe it would last a full season to justify the extra cost of color film, despite producer Sidney Sheldon 's offer to pay the extra cost himself}, and "CONVOY" {no color footage of World War II naval vessels at sea could be found at the time; the series was cancelled that December}].

Aside from the sitcoms & westerns of that year, there were some bright spots on the schedule. The FBI, Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea, The Ed Sullivan Show & of course, The Bell Telephone Hour. 📺

Penelope I'd like to try. If I attempt to doublecheck this with a quick search now I might lose the connection so for the moment I'll guess on some clues. Black and white? Likely an anthology. If it's from the 60s try Fred Astaire Premiere Theater. A few of these have been posted. Try You Tube of course. My second guess would be Bob Hope Presents the Chrysler Theater but most available openings and closings for this have disappeared since the show went off. Was possibly syndicated as Universal Star Time but it's been awhile since that's been found with its (substituted new) credits added. Another hopefully strong possibility is The Dick Powell Theater. I've been surprised that episodes have been turning up. In particular, an early treatment of what would become Burke s Law, "Who Killed Julie Greer?" It's the only one I've hunted down in the recent past. Fred Astaires' Premiere Theater has two I've found on line so far, "Seven Against the Sea " (the War drama that actually "piloted" McHales Navy) and a fascinating story about urban doctors in a rough district featuring William Shatner and...ouch, his co-star escapes me at the moment. It would help if I could recall other performers here but hopefully Mr Shatner s "clue" is all you'll need. Good luck with this. I sincerely hope these clues will take you to the right show. PS. If it's a 50s anthology I am likely somewhat useless here as I have not studied these much. The grand daddy is Playhouse 90...another notable is Hallmark Hall of Fame which may have actually run into the 70s?

Bonanza was sponsored by Chevrolet back then

That episode of Perry Mason you show in your video would not have been shown in 1965. Perry Mason ran from 1957-1966 and the episode you showed was the very first episode which ran in Season 1 which was 1957. They wouldn't show reruns until the show had officially ended in 1966.
