Love the really old looney toons. One of the Roku channels has some super racist Merrie Melodies and they're gold.

Why whatever do you mean?

There used to be a late night TV show called Popcorn Theater that aired old movies, usually B&W sci-fis from the 50's that I liked to watch.
I was allowed to stay up late on the weekends at about age 12, so I did. :)

The Tomorrow Show with Tom Snyder, and also the Late Late Show with Tom Snyder.
I enjoyed both and tried to catch them frequently.
He did a lot of great interviews, but I'll always remember seeing his interview with a young Cyndi Lauper and being smitten with this wiggly, smart, cute, intelligent, sexy girl.

Was really saddened when Tom passed on.

As Tom used to say: "Fire up a colortini, sit back, relax, and watch the pictures now as they fly through the air."
