Where To Watch
We can guess your age based on your earliest TV memories
Did you first start watching shows in black and white or color? Did you have 3 channels or 300?
Like many other things, how we consume entertainment has changed a lot in the last half century. Ever since the dawn of television, a new innovation occurred at least once a decade, meaning kids born just a few years later had a different experience.
Whether it was switching to color, getting new channels with cable, adding things like video games and VHS players or never knowing a time before any of those, your earliest experiences in front of a television set can reveal a lot about you. Maybe even your age!

I'm 34 going on 42 :/
56- Right on the money! (For once)
One year off!
Add 5 years.
I just turn 50 not 56! 😂
Wow really darn close, said I'm 64 and I just turned 65 in March.
64 - nope, you overshot by 6 years. But now a certain Beatles song will be in my head all day.
They aged me by over a decade :( I guess it could be due to being raised by my grandparents.
Good guess, but I'm actually 69. I was born July 18th, 1952, and we had a black-and-white TruTone console TV in our house that had rabbit ears connected to it. My favorite singer at the time was Tennessee Ernie Ford, back in the late '50s.
Very close. Your guess is 64. I will be 64 in three weeks...
they hit the nail on the head, exactly!
One number off. They guessed 56. I'm 55
Good job!
Good job!
It said that I'm 64 and I'm 64!
Not too bad, but those last two questions are BOGUS since I didn't eat or drink ANY OF THEM.
It said I'm 64, but I'm *not* - I'm *59!* Off by five years!
(I was born on April 29, 1962.)
(I was born on April 29, 1962.)
And I followed you on May 6, exactly one week later. Happy belated birthday to us!
56 Spot On
wow pretty good!! it said 72-- i'm 71-- however 9&10 were forced answers, as we were not allowed to eat while watching tv and we were not allowed to eat EVER in the living room-- no family room for us the non-wealthy!!! apartment dwellers
It said I'm 56, but it was off by five years - I'm 51. Also, #7 should have had "none of the above" because I never watched the Battle of the Sexes showdown as a kid, and for 9 and 10, I only put down Keebler and PDQ because potato chips and Kool-Aid were not included as choices.
You daid I was 56. I'm 58. I loved Bugles but put Space Sticks. I loved Kool Aid but put PDQ Chocolate Milk. I never heard of either of those foods or drinks. I wish you would have put Kool Aid and Lays Potato Chips. We had an outdoor antenna that brought about seven channels from two hours away, plus Charlotte North Carolina. We finally got cable tv in 1982. I bought my first VCR that same year to record my soaps.
You guys are wrong way wrong but only 5 yrs off. Its easy to guess by the generation of TV. Thanks for making it fun for us old kids
