tv

Up until a few years ago I used to belive that Tony Robinson and Timmy Mallet were the same people. You can imagine my boyfriend's delight whilst watching Time Team, as I continued to remark on how surprising it is that Tony Robinson has managed to forge a serious presenting career after being known for so long as a wacky kids TV host. I still get confused now!

When I was a kid, I used to believe if you were watching TV, and you turned it off, it paused.

i used to believe that i couldn't see the ladies head from the Powerpuff Girls because i had a small tv in my room. then my mom got a big big BIG tv for the living room and i saw it was just the show.

i used to have very strange beliefs. i used to think that everybody could read my mind and all the people on t.v. were actually real people who got sucked in and had to stay there and act for the rest of their lives! i also remember i used to watch a show called "buffy the vampire slayer"(and i still do) and i would actually believe i was a real vampire from that show and would act really evil and my parents almost took me to therapy because they thought i was possessed!!

When i was about 5 i was convinced that the tv and radio broadcast the same thing and i used to tune the radio to corespond with the tv channels.

i used to believe television was just another window in our house. i used to talk to the tv. i thought sesame streeet characters were just my neighbors. i was so proud. somehow, i felt that they dont hear me or they dont care what i say, so i shout to them sometimes. i was so disappointed when i got to visit my cousins. "they're your neighbors too?!"

My mom used to watch the television programs about criminals all the time when I was younger, so I decided that I should try watching them too. Every time I saw a reenactment of a crime, I thought someone had actually caught the original criminal in the act and filmed it. I always wondered why that person couldn't have just called the police....

Thanks to my sister, I used to believe that babies saw everything upside-down. Every time we were watching television, my sister would insist that I watch it upside-down so that I could see life through a baby's eyes. And so that's what I did.

I used to belive that every TV show and movie was proformed right there and then everytime live, well then I heard they could take out scens and I thought when they did, they had to whipe your mind of that part to make you forget.

At the end of Disney movies, they would always show the "And" symbol, &. Like "in assosioation with Disney & Lupin the Third", or whatever....Well, When the & came up, I thought that if I didn't rewind the tape or turn off the TV, that movie would never play again.

REEEEEAAAALLLY STUPID

As a child our TV stayed on one channel. We had a TV
anntena and got only a few channels. For some reason I thought the neighbors were watching us on their TV. We had a fire and ran to the neighbors. I was
stunned to see they were watching the evening news
instead of us. I remmeber my mom telling my brothers to behave because the neighbors were watching us.
Maby thats why I thought this... wierd I know lol
