    I was in the audience for a local TV show, back in 1993. Robert Vaughn was a guest. I was seated right next to where the guests entered to go on stage. He stopped, shook my hand, said it was a pleasure to meet me, and continued to his seat. He didn't stop for anyone else. 🤔

      Everything was on film by then. I think that everything had been filmed since about 1956, thanks to Desi Arnaz. It was how Desi time delayed "I Love Lucy" for different time zones. Soon, the networks were doing that with all their programming, and reruns were born! Around 1969 or 1970, video tape became widely used even though it had been around for quite a while. (There are a few "Twilight Zone" episodes from the early 1960's that are on video tape).
