Young people won't probably believe this but back when TV really mattered, you had to get up to change channels. I do remember but that's because I'm old. Here's a 1961 promotional movie introducing the first television remote control.

there obviously was no need to change channels as you only had one in those days WHOEHAA!!
oops in the end they DO change channels....
The woman reminds me of my mum in those days hahaha
I love the glittery styrofoam star!
If that's "Living color" I'd hate to know what "Dead Color" was like.
They had color TV in 1961? Huh. We didn't get ours until 1972.
From what I remember, the reason people had kids was so they'd have somebody to change the channels for them.
