I used to the ALF (the alien from Melmac) was real, and that he ate cats because they were evil and he was trying to save the world.

Nellie

Back in the early-80s when I was in kindergarten, one of my very favourite TV shows was Knight Rider. Back then my parents had a 1974 Chevy Camaro that I absolutely loved (when my father decided to trade it for a butt-ugly pick-up truck I was rather upset). I would go outside and hang around the car, pretending not to pay attention to it but stealing glances every so often to see if I could catch it talking (beats me why I just didn't go up to it and ask, "hey, can you talk?", but acting like a spy was just so much more interesting at that age). I conducted this top-secret experiment a few more times until, with a heavy heart, I realized it was just a "normal" car.

Tornado

I remember my parents not letting me watch "Laverne & Shirley" when I was in grade school - I thought it was some perv-sex-adult show. Little did I know they were trying to get me to sleep at 8:30pm.

Christine

When I was young, I used to watch Star Trek all the time, and until I was twelve, I thought that when I grew up there really would be transporters and space ships and the world would be just like it was in the show. When I realized that I was not going to go to space and visit other worlds, I was very dissapointed!!!

Jenny

I used to think "The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air" was actually a prince and one day he had to go to court for some parking tickets(or whatever) and I remember thinking "he can't get in trouble, he's the Prince!"

SarieBear

I remember crying every time the show, Lassie went off because I thought the credits hurt her (Lassie), and the whistling music made it even worse.

Leah

When i was a toddler, I used to spend hours in front of the television watching Barney, Sesame Street, and Mr. Rogers. Then my mother would always tell me that my shows were fixing to go off and her shows (soap operas) were fixing to come on. Then she would change the channel to her soaps.

So naturally I just thought that there was only one channel on the television that played my shows for half of the day, and my mom's shows for the rest of the day.

Really it was just my mother not wanting to miss the next episode of her soap operas.

KirB

I used to think that everyone understood what trolley from Mr. Roger's Neighborhood was saying (dinging). I would get very upset and frustrated thinking I was the only one who did not understand. I would yell at the TV saying "What are you saying?"

Hyun

When I was a kid in the 60's, we'd watch the Ed Sullivan Show. I remember being really confused because in the beginning, they'd say "Life from New York...The Ed Sullivan Show." Then at the end they'd say, "This show has been pre-recorded." When I pointed it out to my dad, he roared with laughter.

old lady

I believed that Miss Sally on Romper Room really had a magic mirror and could see the children watching her show. I never really forgave her for saying my brother's name and NEVER saying mine.

Laurel

I used to believe that Quincy was a really bad doctor because all of his patients died.

Heather

When i was young, i used to believe that the credits at the end of t.v. shows and films were the words of the song they would sing at the begin and end of the show.

When i was a child i firmly believed that when i was on Ready Steady Cook (it was compulsory, everyone had to do it) if i didnt think of a good enough name for my meal or quickly enough Ainsley Harriot would pull out a bazooka and blow me up. I don't know why, he just looked like a mean guy. It used to scare the hell out of me, and i'd practice at night, thinking up weird and wonderful names.

Im not crazy, everyone else is

after watching too much Gilligan's Island, i had the idea that quicksand could be found anywhere, and i was always afraid i'd fall in some when i least expected it. it wasn't until much later that i realized there will never be quicksand in new york city.

scoop

I used to think that Mr Snuffalupagus really was invisible, and that like Big Bird, I was special and that we were the only ones who could see Snuffy. Of course, now EVERYONE on Sesame Street can see him. I was disappointed when my daughters started watching & I saw that Big Bird's secret was out. It just seemed so much a part of the show AND Big Bird & Snuffy that it sort of spoiled it for me.

Jessica

My son, then age 4, - now 13 - used to believe that Vanna White was a tiny little person, fairy size, and that's why she was smaller than the letters of the puzzles on Wheel of Fortune.

Wanda

When I was little, I thought that the people on TV could see us, and when they talked/looked at the camera, they were talking just to me. I used to have a crush on Luke from the "Dukes of Hazard", so every Saturday night I would spend the hr. before the show getting dressed up in my best pajamas, curling my hair and making sure I looked my best for Luke!

Lia

When watching the show The Incredible Hulk, I used to think that if I watched him change from Bruce Banner he would come through the TV and get me. Trust me, I got to be very good at hiding in the cushions of the couch when I heard that telltale music.

Brian

I used to think that soap operas were the real lives of the people on the other side of the world, and that there were hidden cameras taping me for them to watch!

Crystal Shaffer

Mr. Rogers creeped me out. I thought he could see me through the tv. I would hide in my closet to change clothes so he couldn't see me naked.
