It's a real love/hate relationship with me....I love the TV and hate myself.

TV's haven't gone off like that for a long time either - reducing to that little dot.

Nice work - have me chance to play spot the difference.

Having come to Oz, the land of 24/7 telly, in 1980...I'd almost forgotten the 'dot', until back on a visit, in '86 and my bils were searching for "Auf Wiedersehn Pet" videos for me to watch, when we got home from the pub and I said "Can't we watch live telly, while you're looking?" and got a pair of weird stares B-)

Ha! Good story, Bear...and let's not forget the sound they made when you turned them off "THUNK"!!! like someone kicking the side of the set.

Hey look who's back! Poor dog needs to go for a walk I'm thinking. Ooops, it's a pig, but they need a walk surely.

Hi ya, Mo! Florence sleeps all day then he walks all night....roams the neighborhood, then the little piggy goes wee wee wee alllll the way home.

LooeyQ! How do you do? Yeah, I mean how else can one binge watch the entire series of Miss Fisher Murder Mysteries? Am I right?

Good spotting on the front page there by me : so 38 strips down in one go. Being an intelligent chap, I instantly realised that his sponsor on that GUN page...was ACME !!! NOTHING of theirs has ever killed a bird in its life ! B-) Nice work btw

Good catch, Bear...just wait til next week's strip to see if you can identify that sponsor. And thanks. ...I like to believe this comic strip is for intelligent chaps such as yourself.
