    I'm 42yrs old, born and raised in Texas, and grew up watching TCR. My Dad never worried about the content. He said that more shows like TCR were needed.
    CONGRATULATIONS on 50 yrs!

    I’m not a Texan but I love Texas. I have been watching TCR for years. I would say TCR’s body of work is a national treasure. I hope it will continue for another 50. Congratulations guys!

    It's amazing that on one video I could actually agree with this governor on TWO things - count 'em - on two fingers: TWO things! 1) congratulations to Bob for promoting Texas stories and culture, and 2) God bless Texas!

    Congratulations Bob for 50 years of exploration and adventure. Although I haven't been with you for all of the 50 years, it's close. I started following you in 1975 when I moved from Fort Smith, Arkansas to Dallas.

    Eighty-One years old. Born and raised in California. Been to Texas a few times and always enjoyed my time there. I watch your "Reports" and find them very informative and enjoyable. Sometimes feel like I have somehow become, at least part Texan. Thank you Bob, Kelli, and the TCR crew. Congratulations and best wishes for a wonderful continuing journey.

    By far one of the best channels on You Tube, I never miss one!! You've taken people from all over the world on your adventure to places I'd bet that 99% of even Texans have not seen. You've proven your going to see more if you get off those highways, and slow down and take the back roads.

    I am 53 years old this 50th year of TCR. I remember looking forward to watching your show every week. I was raised by my grand parents and they didn't speak english well but they still watched TCR. They were strict with what I could watch by never having a complaint about TCR. I don't travel, but through TCR, I've been ALL OVER TEXAS. Thank you, Bob, Kelli, and the TCR crew. 🇺🇸

    Back in the day whenever we tuned in and finished an the airing, it always seemed we were now heading on out for a Dairy Queen, funny how that worked! Thank ya'll for 50 wonderful years of pure Republic of Texas sights, monuments, towns large and small, gatherings, events, and the interesting hard working common folks throughout our great State that have been a joy to watch. And most importantly to our fellow Texans who allowed all of us to have a small glimpse into their daily lives, God bless them all for sharing with us. And to you Sir Robert and your crew for bringing us all together..

I got busy with life and did not watch from my late teens til my 40s. I remember being so happy to see Bob again and still chugging along. Bob, please do not ever stop! You actually look younger than me!!! I love you and your wife so much! Every Sat am I tune in!!! And I will as long as you remain and the good Lord allows me to walk this earth!

    Congratulations on 50 years! I just turned 50 my self and I truly enjoy your show! I work 911 in Stanly Co. NC and on my down time I watch your show on UA-cam. It helps me to relax after a rough call or incident. I have been to Texas one time in my life and that was to pick up a Fire truck my Vol. Fire dept. had purchased. My daughter and I plan a return trip sometime in the future. I may not be Texan by birth but I am Texan by heart!

    Fell in love with TCR way back when I stumbled onto RFD-TV when I first got cable television . I've personally only been to Texas twice. Once in 1967 at Lackland AFB , and again about 12 or 10 yrs later as a "tourist". But thanks to TCR I'm able to 'visit" Texas anytime I want too.

    You are my very favorite show! I’m 63 and have difficulty going to sleep due to tinnitus. I have to listen to something pleasant to help me sleep. I laugh at some stories, and many times cry at the way you show the sacrificial altruism of so many Texans. Makes me want to move there from the east coast. I wish I could purchase the whole series! Your show is a ray of hope in this climate of political insanity.

    I’ve been watching TCR since the beginning in 1972. I learned early on that this was not really a travel show. This is a show about people. Good people with a talent and a story to tell. There have been stories that made me laugh out loud. Others have made me shed a tear, even sob. But maybe most of all, they make me realize, in times of constant turmoil, there are good people with uplifting stories to relate. Thanks Bob and Kelli for letting us ride along with you.

    When TCR comes on....either I'm watching or the DVR is, so I can watch later. I've only been along for 25 of those 50 years....and look forward to the next 50+! or until Kelli decides she wants Bob all to herself. LOL Course I think Kelli has just as much fun doing TCR shows as Bob does. Haha
