People on TV shows live inside the television

This is one of the first memories I can remember. I used to beleive when I was REALLY young that there were tiny little poeple in the TV acting, and when you bought or rented a VHS tape, the little people went from the tape to the TV to do the show for you.

When I was a child I used to believe that all the people on TV were actually tiny people who lived inside the TV set, i was always looking through the little slits in the back trying to see those miniture people who lived inside, i also used to think that if i tried to insert tiny pieces of paper into the back that they would magically apear on the screen falling onto those people.

I used to believe that the people inside the tv were real. i always thought that if i broke the screen i could climb in and join my favourite tv stars. one time my dad found me with a hammer and explained to me that there wasnt people in there and that if i tried to get in i would probably die!

I used to believe if you broke the TV tiny people would come out.

When i was little, I used to believe that the people at TV, was actually inside the TV. Since I'm from Norway, we only had one channel, but mum's English friend had several. When we came for a visit, I saw a childrens TV-show on a channel. Then they switched channel, but the same show was on. I then asked how the people could run so fast from one channel to another. They still laugh of it.

I used to believe people lived in the tv. So when I was watching a movie or a tv show, I thought it was another reality coming from inside the TV. I also thought if you tried hard enough, you would get sucked into the "TV dimension". I had a crush on the character (played by Crispin Glover) George Mcfly (the young one from the 1950's) from Back to the Future, and tried to jump into the tv, but it never worked. Then one day I saw a billboard for Micheal. J. Fox's Spin City, and reliezed that people do not live in the Tv, and that they are real people.

When i was younger i used to believe that poeple on the t.v lived in there. I thought that they would need food like us all, so i made sure that they were well fed by putting my milk bottle and other various foods into the vcr so they would not go hungry.
