What tv show memories pop in your head from childhood while playing with your star wars toys

I am sure many of you like my self   set many times  in the living room floor  playing with your toys while the parents watched tv. What tv shows come to mind   that you watched  or were on as you played star wars on the floor?

I can  vividly remember  the dukes of hazzard, Dallas, simon&simon and threes company, fantasy island.

We would play with our toys in the floor  till it was time for bed and then the figures went back into the vader carrying case.Usuall  we would go to bed listening to one of the cassette tapes of the films.

I wonder how many of us hold on to such memories and still buy and collect  the same  vintage toys now that we got then because one we either  like our past better than our present or two  we dont want to grow up. That is a conversation for another thread though.

for me, it was always cartoons that came to my mine. mostly that old cartoon show calleld swat kats. i use to imitate their voices when i shot down an Xwing or Tie fighter, depending whether or not i was a good guy or bad guy.

The only Star Wars toys I ever had as a kid was a TIE fighter & Y-wing LEGO kit, and I never really played with them.

There was a Charles Bronson movie on when I was assembling them, though I don't recall the name of it.

God doesn't think in terms of black or white - or even shades of gray - but in big, bright, bold hues of blue and orange.

I never really played with toys in front of a tv. I liked to make up my own stories and do crazy things with action figures. Oh the many things I did to that poor Tamtel Skreej Lando and Emperor Palpatine...that's probably where my random Palpy quotations stem from.

The question now becomes what to do with your SW toy collection...and yes sometimes one simply must pick up more...still looking for that bloody electronic POTFII snowspeeder...and there's a brand new Target exclusive one that is sooo tempting...

Because two full sized electronic toy Millennium Falcons are not enough! ;)

I dont recall any specific show, but I played with my SW toys while my parents watched scary movies.
