Memories of 1966 - Where Were You ?

[@picmajik]

FIrst thing I recognize in these clips is Roger Mudd's voice. I must have spent too much time watching the news in the 60s. I do miss the days of good TV news with Walter Cronkite, Roger Mudd, Harry Reasoner, and Hugh Downs who spent much time in radio work and it shows in their delivery. Now it's all flashy folks and quick cuts so I just wait and read things online as I did with my lamented daily newspaper (now a tabloid format which I loathe). I also remember when we got our first COLOR tv in 1968! I'm also singing along with all the ads--thanks for the memories.

[@boobzac]

1966 was the year I got the best birthday gift ever. When I got home from school my mother gave me for my 7th birthday a Batman utility belt by Ideal. Today it is considered the Holy Grail of Batman collectibles. In the package it'll cost you 3,500 - 4,500 bucks!

[@Johnnyboy792]

Holy Cannoli Buster !!! Even used you're getting back 10 times what your Mom payed for it ! LOL. Thanks for tuning in Buddy !

[@boobzac]

Unfortunately it's long gone. I'd imagine it cost under $10 back then. But at $10 your looking at 350 - 450 times what it went for. Today collectors usually purchase it piece by piece. It came with a Bat boomerang, Bat-cuffs, a Bat-light etc. All of these gadgets tended to get lost so trying to put one together is tough. About 10 years ago I saw the bat-cuffs with a rusty chain, looking the worse for wear sell for just over $200! And it's my pleasure tuning in. Just keep 'em coming!

[@AN-vt8qq]

I had one too

[@janhoyle1462]

I still love California Dreaming! Bottle tans were orange. I still want a 1966 Mustang! I saw the Ghost & Mr. Chicken at the matinee with friends. I was lucky enough to interview Adam West & Burt Ward at DragonCon in 2013. I was so happy that Adam answered and enjoyed my question. John & George, Davey & Peter are dead. I never saw The Beatles or Monkees play.

Despite the drama, 66 was the best year musically for the Beatles in my opinion. Revolver was a great album

[@bobbyfrancis8957]

Around 1965-66, I believed that time was the best time for Herb Alpert and the Tiajuana Brass. I heard their music quite ALOT during that time. "Occasional Wife"? Didn't they already have a program like that with "The Cara Williams Show"? Its about two married couples who live together, all four work together at the same place, but they must pretend they are not married or their boss will fire them. Only their next-door neighbor knows about them.

[@shimarisu595]

Born, missed the Star Trek premiere by 3 days...

[@johnallen2771]

I was 15 and remember it all. I was just getting into my hippie days and I hated the Monkees. The radio was filled with Top Forty music and a new thing was coming on the air called FM. It didn't hiss and crackle like AM did when a storm passed over. And the beginning of Time Tunnel and Star Trek were 2 of my favs. The movie selection for that year wasn't very memorable, except for the classic, "Who's Afraid of Virgina Wolfe."

[@undergroundwarrior70]

I saw the Blue Max with George Peppard, Ursula Andress, and James Mason that year. I was 10 years old. The second feature was Dimension 5. Starring Jeffrey Hunter. Terrible movie. It is on KZbin.

[@LynxSouth]

It's About Time! That theme song has been stuck in my head for decades, and I couldn't figure out which program it was from: not Lost in Space, not Valley of the Dinosaurs, so WHAT???! Whew! I can relax now. In 1966, I was 6 and 7, watching most of these programs with my little brother. I don't think I went to the movies, but I remember the ad for Virginia Wolf, which frightened me. I'm not sure why. I loved the TV ad for Little Friskies, partly for the cats and mostly b/c the speaker stuck his arm outside of the TV. I often visited my married older sister, who played the radio and danced. Music and dancing were something we always shared. EDIT: Most episodes of _It's About Time_ are available here on YT.

I still have the TV Guide and Life magazines with Batman on the cover! Although muscle cars were all awesome, the '66 Olds Toronado was a pretty rad design for older folks!

The video brings up some of the dark events that happened in 1966, but as a 12-year-old living the life of Riley on a small island in the Pacific, things were looking much differently. It was long before I started having to worry about the draft and going to college and finding a job. Now, I'm a 70-year-old man who has done all that and has somehow managed to survive though about two layoffs, but what kept me going were those magical days I spent in 1966, obsessing about Batman, Peanuts, comic books, and slot cars.

The theme song for "The Green Hornet" TV show sounded almost like Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's "Flight Of The Bumblebee," which was the theme song for the radio version of "The Green Hornet." That program was created by Francis "Fran" Striker and produced by George W. Trendle, both of whom also respectively created and produced two other classic radio adventure series, "The Lone Ranger," and "Sergeant Preston Of The Yukon." Like "The Green Hornet," those shows also used classical pieces as their opening themes: the music for "The Lone Ranger" was Rossini's "The 'William Tell' Overture," while the "Sergeant Preston" song was Georges Bizet's "Donna Diana Overture." Re: the ad for United States Savings Bonds with Adam West in his "Batman" costume.

What a great time to be in High School !

[@judyjones5089]

I loved Dactari, and got a lot of kidding, since the chimp and I had the same name :) Lost in Space was my favorite. Dad and I would watch together. If I remember right, it came on Wednesday around six, because Dad would pick me up from track, and we would get Burger King on the way home. That was mom's bridge night, so she was busy elsewhere, and we were happy campers.

What a great Dad !!!!! :)
