I watched Rat Patrol and Combat last night. Didn't see them as a kid as I was really young then.

I'll go way back.
Romper room. Sheriff John, including the cartoon Clutch Cargo and his pals, Spinner and Paddlefoot. Engineer Bill.
Mom would plop my sister and I in front of the TV at 5:00 to watch the Mickey Mouse Club while she made dinner. It was over at 5:30 and then Dad was home.

Early on I it was Roy Rodgers and Captain Kangaroo. A little later It was the shows Johnny Weissmuller was on (Jungle Jim and Tarzan) and of course a whole slew of the sitcoms like Gilligan, Beverly Hill Billie's etc. An always the Three Stooges and capped off with the Man from Uncle.

From the earlier posts it is apparent my generation isn't represented, so....
The Howdy Doody Show with Buffalo Bob Smith.
Then there was Andy's Gang with Andy Devine and Froggy.
Pluck your magic twanger Froggy!
