Come Saturday morning

This was a childhood favorite.

(I know this title was a song I use to love too)

Side note: as a preteen or teen, do you remember the first 45 you bought? Mine was 16 candles. Heard it the other day, that's why I ask it.

But I loved as a kid, the Sat. morning cartoons. We 3 kids gathered around the t.v. for it.

Of course, that was followed up by Sun. morning church, which I have good memories of too.

What day was your childhood favorite, if you had one?

Now there are so many news shows on Saturday morning. If I saw a schedule of 60's/70's cartoons, I might recall a few I liked. One in particular was about a car race, and some character named D**k Dastardly would sabotage the other drivers.

I used to Love saturday morning crtoons but I don't remember many of them.

There were also the British imports I loved , The Thunderbirds and Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons.

What I really remember is my siblings and I doing our Saturday Morning Chores to the background of reruns of the The Three Stooges and then the Wresteling show. I was so young I thought the wrestling was really dangerous. Gorilla Monsoon and Chief Jay Strongbow were two of my faves. Then it was off with my friends to the bowling alley for a couple of strings of candlepins. If we were rich that week we might see a matinee.

Funny, now I've got the notion to do some dusting!

@qualitygal The day before Christmas was really special to me when I believed in Santa Claus. My stomach had butterflies! Also my Birthday was very special....having a party with all of my friends over.... as far as weekdays....Saturday was my favorite day....play all day!

The first 45 record was most likely by the The Monkees. Hey Hey were the Monkees! Big fan back then!😄

I used to love Sat mornings because that was when my favorite program "Fury" was on. Sundays were great also because after church we always stopped at a local family market for our paper and always got a lot of goodies to eat while waiting for our Sunday meal.
