Johnny Yuma, "The Rebel", is now on Amazon - 36 episodes from Season One.

 

Remember when there were 36 episodes in a season?

Thirty six episodes is now 3 or 3.5 seasons of a network show.  No wonder I feel this old.

I never kept count, but I do remember a new season began in September and ran thru April or so. A new show every week. Then it was "summer reruns"

 

Lived near Philadelphia in the '50s; every August or so, the Philadelphia Bulletin included an illustrated chart of the new season's TV schedule.  I remember pouring over that fold-out, trying to figure out what shows we would watch.  When Bonanza came out in color, it changed the world.

Seasons are so short with such a long break and no re-runs I frequently forget what the heck happened at the end of the season.:angry:

In those days, scripts and sets were easier.

I agree.  I saw an episode of Land of the Giants around 2am when I couldn’t sleep.  The production quality was so bad, I couldn’t watch more than 5 minutes of it

Back in the days before 24/7 programming, I remember staring at a test pattern waiting for the Mickey Mouse Club to come on in the afternoon. Even into my adulthood, TV stations signed off after midnight or so with a patriotic video.

Used to see the flag waving and anthem playing at the end of a programming day. On the weekends it was right after Elvira: Cleavage of the Dark.
