So detail your earliest TV or movie memory. What was the first TV show or movie you remember watching? How old were you? What are the circumstances surrounding that event?
Mine...
The earliest TV show I remember watching was Sanford & Son. It was 1980, I was five years old, and I had just moved to Kentucky from New York. I was looking around our basement TV room for my stuff which was still in boxes. I found a box marked Kevin's toys and tore it open and found my Colonial Viper and Cylon Raider toys from Battlestar Galactica. Then I turned on the TV. Sanford & Son was on. I had no idea what it was but I left it on while I played with my ships.
My earliest movie memory is of my parents taking me out in the family car. I had no idea where they were taking me and they wouldn't tell me. Then I looked up and saw a theater marquee with Star Wars on it. I'm assuming it was the '78 re-release. Dunno how I knew what it said considering I didn't learn to read until about '79, but I knew. Logo recognition? That is my earliest movie memory although I have no memory of being in the theater and actually watching it. Just of the process of pulling up to the theater in my parents' car.
Anybody else?
