We had the first color TV in the neighborhood. I remember all the kids from the entire neighborhood (LOTS!) piled into my "family room" (anyone else remember those?) to watch our first-ever color TV show ... Gilligan's Island!I am so old I remember when we only had one TV channel. And a black and white TV
FYI I still have my old colour TV for my bedroom as a teen. It’s a boat anchor but it still works! Not that there are any channels to watch now, signals are all digital these days!
How many inches is grandma's old huge TV?
We were the last to get one I believe.
likley one of the last CRT TVs ever sold. Bought it at Sears, I worked there and received a hefty 25% discount on merchandise I bought.
I hate throw away stuff.It’s big! I can’t lift it
I remember when Sears was the Amazon of the day - catalogues were sent out all the time. Makes me mad that Sears didn’t jump all over the internet sales, they were too slow to realize the value of the internet.
And also today’s business model that Amazon has with their ‘throw away’ merch didn’t fit with the quality brand that Sears modelled.
No one wants quality anymore, they want cheap and throwaway.
You know, I’ve been in at least fifty houses and haven’t seen a single one with a family room other than my grandparents’ house which they built themselves in the 80’s. And maybe one or two other old houses. I wonder when they went out of style.
My parent's house has a family room. It's just a normal room. They have a split level and the kitchen, dining room, living room, and a spare room are the first level. Upstairs are more bedrooms and downstairs is the family room. It's not one those rooms that are set down a step, like this...
What’s the difference between a family room and a living room? I thought they were the same and then for visitors there was the front parlor (in an old house).
Probably just location in the united states and age of person saying it
