...Walter Cronkite. I didn't Get Smart either. Not once did I come home from school and settle down on the couch for a little Gilligan's Island or Magilla Gorilla. There was no All in the Family in my family. M*A*S*H, Mannix, Merv, David Frost talking with Richard Nixon, Howard Cosell talking with Howard Cosell, Sunday-morning cartoons, late-night movies--we had none of it.
