Sonny Pruitt/Movin' On And BJ & The Bear

If I was old enough to remember movin on, I would have had to be between 5-7 years old. So that would have been 1975-1977

Yep. 74-76. I was in my first hitch in the USAF.

Feeling kinda' dense, I'm trying to figure out how to upload a picture to TT to embed in a posting.... hmmmm......

I think you need an account like Photobucket or such and have posted a bazillion times!

Thank you kind sir! Appreciate the lead... I thought there would be a way to load the picture directly to TT in the post... guess I was thinking incorrectly.

What are you guys talking about?

Way before your time Daniel. These were TV shows that were playing after I graduated high school.

Ernie

Ha! That's a good one... :) These TV Shows were playing before I was IN High School.

Heck, now that I think about it, I think they were on before I was in Jr High School. Doh!

It's conversations like these that remind me I'm getting to be older than I think I am.

From a few months ago, LittleJoe posted, as folks often have questions about uploading photos:

Directly above this area, as you're entering a new post or reply, there are eight blue buttons… Click on the "Photo" button and enter the appropriate web address of the image that you want to insert. The image MUST BE uploaded to an image sharing website (I use Photobucket). Many are free to use for a limited amount of storage space.

Hope this helps.

Daniel, TV was like the internet in that it had content you could view on a screen. Most houses only had one, you could change stations (web sites) but you couldn't select anything other than what that channel was broadcasting. It was old-timey BUT it was wireless.

The screens were lodged inside veneered boxes.

Before 1965 many shows were in black and white.

LOL! ... and phones had wires connecting them to the walls in the house. You couldn't take the phone with you when you went out!!

Actually saw the restored red KW from BJ & The Bear at a truck stop in Effingham, Illinois a couple years ago. Billy Joe McKay, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Ahhhh......'70's TV......the memories.

In case you want to see what it was like, here is the first episode on youtube. It's been uploaded from what looks like a video recording of the pilot, so watching it in full screen will give you a 70s over the air experience - a fuzzy picture.

The TV series "Movin' On" is availalbe on Hulu. I've been watching the first season.

You old guys are killing me!! I got the Movin On model kit for my 10th birthday in 1975... It was a Kenworth W 925 in emerald green.

Okay now you got my attention. This is not why I am joining the ranks of trucking but i do remember the show. It probably doesn't help that my dad also owned a trucking company. I really did look forward to this show each week when i was kid. I also liked the comparison of tv to the internet. Looking forward to starting my career with Prime next month.
