When I was younger I used to watch a lot of black and white movies and tv shows (Like I Love Lucy and Shirley Temple movies). Well I used to wonder why it was only black and white and no color. For about 8 years of my life I thought back when tv was first made there was no color, just black and white, so the whole world was black and white, not just tv and movies.
