When I was a little kid, I believed that when you saw someone killed on television, that they were actually killed. I thought they just got people who wanted to commit suicide, or people who were sentenced to death for crimes, and put them in the tv show.
I used to believe that if you lay down under the TV and looked up at the screen, you'd see up people's clothing. And I also used to think that at the end of the cookery program, you'd be handed a nice cake to eat through the screen.
i used to believe when my parents recorded something on t.v. that it was also recording the noises we made.so i always sat real quite and a few years later my sister was recording a cassette of the radio and i would walk in and yell nadine sucks! thinking it would record it...and i'd ask her if she ever got a special message adn she'd me like nope
When I was little I believed that when I would turn off the television, the show I had been watching would stop and wait for me to come back. I distinctly remember one time watching a cartoon (I think it was Spiderman) and my mother and I had to leave to run an errand. I stood in front of the TV and instructed the show to wait for me so I could finish watching it when I returned. Imagine my disappointment.
When I was four, I adamantly believed that turning off my television would consequently turn off any other television in the neighborhood.
Needless to say, "Turn the TV off!" was a statement heard often around my house.
When I was little I used to believe that actors and actresses lived inside the VHS tape and I would ask them repeatedly whether they were ready for me to start the tape or not. I assumed that they just acted out the movie whenever I wanted them to.
My Mum and Dad would never let me watch rented videos more than once. They told me that the cassette had a counter in it, which the shop checked and would charge us the fee for each time the video was watched by us.
growing up... i used to think every time we left our home after turning off the tv... i would be able to continue watching where i left off...thinking the power button was a puase button also when playing the radio i thought when batteries went bad the song would still play on radio just only slower lol
I went to my friend's house and they had a VCR. I actually thought it was real-time TV that they had the ability to fast-forward, and rewind if they'd missed a bit. I was devastated when I realised the truth.
Another friend got Teletext and I was absolutely mystified by the prospect of 'reading' your TV whilst the sound played over it. I thought these gadgets must be worth millions and that my parents would NEVER in a million years be able to afford them. We got them about a year later.
whenever people on shows like Barney or something would talk to me when i was little (like "hello, kids! are you ready to have some fun?", i always answered because i didnt want to be rude. even if i didnt feel like it, i would answer. one day, i decided i would be mean and not answer and it came as an incredible disapointment that they couldnt actually hear me.
iused to think that that people in tv would have parties weee little partys when you turn off the tv and iwould turn the tv on fast to see them
I used to believe you could switch channel on the tele using the car keys
I used to think that all those people typing subtitles were extremely quick. I thought the subtitles for each scene were only typed out when that particular screen was shown. Hence the many mistakes too.
When I was little I thought if you turned off the T.V when you where watching a show it would pause until you turned it back on.
1.I used to beleive that there were actuall people in the tv,and they didnt realize that they had shrunk and everyone could see what they were doing.
2.I also thought that if you sat to close to the tv it would suck you in and you wouldnt see your mom or dad ever again.
When i was little girl
i used to believe that when i watched a comic (telly). That if you smashed oped a telly the figures would fall out. Of course i never tried this i just thought it luckly . i no if i done that my dad would have been very angry.
I used to beleive every time you watched a video cassette the actors would act it out every tme. Confusing huh?
I used to think that if I was watching a show on TV and I turned the TV off it would make the show stop until I turned it back on.
top belief!
When I was little I loved watching TV and trying to stay up late (still do), but Mother told me the TV went to sleep at night, so I left it alone at bedtime, making sure not to wake it up and make it mad.
I used to think that the laugh tracks you hear during tv shows were actual people who were watching the same show at home, and you could hear them laughing through the speakers, and they could hear me. So every once in a while I got annoyed at the laughing and yelled "SHUT UP" into the speakers.
