I cant find a picture but my step father used to make me record his favorite shows (when I was 10 or so), which wouldn't have been so bad if all I had to do was load a vhs and hit record. But noooo, he didn't like commercials so he bought a 'remote' that plugged in to the vcr (yes, a wired remote). This remote had two functions 'pause' and 'record', so every time the damned commercials came on I would have to push 'pause' and then push 'record' again when the show came back on. I didn't mind most of the time cause I rather enjoyed a few of them (Airwolf, A-Team, Night Rider, Magnum, P.I., Simon & Simon, etc) but he also watched shit that I hated to sit through like Murder she Wrote type shit.

At least YOU weren't the remote. Before remotes were common, it was the kids' responsibility to change the channels and turn it up and down. Usually, about 10 times an hour, I was ordered to "turn it up", "change the channel". Thank God we only had 3 channels back then; ABC, CBS and NBC. Channel surfing was in its infancy.Originally posted by Duncan View PostI cant find a picture but my step father used to make me record his favorite shows (when I was 10 or so), which wouldn't have been so bad if all I had to do was load a vhs and hit record.
