Yep. If you weren't in front of the TV when your show came on, you missed it. Even cartoons were only on weekends, or super early in the morning. I suppose as a child, the thought of today's cartoon networks that ran 24/7 would be paradise, but like anything else, if you have anything you want, any time you want, you don't learn to appreciate it the same way.
BTW I'm a Gen X'er, born in the early 70s, but I think my childhood experiences are far closer to those of Boomers than they are of today's kids.
