And, um, how does it go? "Do not attempt to adjust your TV set..."

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
"You unlock this door with the key of imagination, beyond it is another dimension. A dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into . . . The Twilight Zone."

"In 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit! These men promptly escaped from a maximum-security stockade to the Los Angeles underground! Today, if you have a problem, if no one else can help -- and if you can find them -- maybe you can hire... THE A-TEAM!"

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
1968, I was twelve years old. A lot happened that year. Dennis McLain won 31 games, The Mod Squad hit the air, and I graduated from Hillcrest Elementary and entered junior high school...but we'll get to that. There's no pretty way to put this: I grew up in the suburbs. I guess most people think of the suburb as a place with all the disadvantages of the city, and none of the advantages of the country, and vice versa. But, in a way, those really were the wonder years for us there in the suburbs. It was kind of a golden age for kids.
Damn, I loved that show.

If I only had a brain...
"Do not attempt to adjust your TV set..."
Right. And how many kids today even know what the horizontal and the vertical are, far less how to adjust them?
