Couch potatoes talk about how watching TV has changed over the years


Couch potatoes from Star2 talk about how their TV viewing habits have evolved over the years.

Appointment television – that’s what it’s called, really? Or as we regarded it back then, “staying up late on Sunday night to watch Combat! (or on Fridays for The Night Stalker) so we could talk about it at school on Monday”.

As a working adult, I could not keep an appointment with Twin Peaks because I worked late on broadcast nights – thank goodness for VCRs. That’s “video cassette recorder” to you whippersnappers.
