Does anyone else miss the days with only a few channels and no on demand?

I mean having 100s of chancels is great and on demand is even better but
sometime I miss how it was when I was a kid,

I miss the wait and the feeling looking forward to a program,

examples : O use to get up early so I could watch kids TV before school, I use to get home on time from school as for the same reason and get up at 7 on the weekend to watch TV, Now it 24/7, sometimes I use to wait all week to watch a new episode of show and try not to miss it because you would not know when it would repeat.

having 200+ is good but half of the time nothing is on.


I know if I had a choice I would stick with on demand but I'm assuming some of you will understand and miss that feeling.
 
You mean the days of three channels, BBC1, BBC2 and in my case Granada (ITV), Black and white goldfish bowl TV, Test card until around mid-day and programs finishing not long after midnight?

No

No and yes. I mean the days we had full colour with 4-5 TV channels and 20-40 cable and satellite channels.

also the vid uploaded is from a time before I was born.
