I was about 6 when they came out with "As told by Ginger". I would watch it all the time, but in secret. This was because it had the rating TVY7 and I thought because I was only 6, it was illegal for me to watch. I would lock my door and keep the volume low and hide under the blankets. When my mom found me and asked "What are you doing?" I said please don't tell on me! Don't call the police, cause I'm breaking the law! She asked me why I'm breaking the law and I told her. She burst out laughing.
