My TouchPad Today: TP - A TV Wayback Machine

A couple of times a month, I find myself trolling YouTube late on a Friday or Saturday night for old television clips or interviews/remembrances about the history of the medium.

Most of these trips down my memory lane take place on my laptop or the Roku box attached to my TV. In the last few months, however, the TouchPad has crept into the mix of my conveyances.

The TP is a great vehicle (with headphones - remember, this is a late night activity) for use as your personal wayback machine.

My last trip took me to a great series of clips with Bill Marx (Harpo's son) and Dick Cavett chatting about the Marx Brothers.

If you have the opportunity or inclination to take one of these trips, here are some points of interest for your itinerary...

• Sid Caesar
• Your Show of Shows
• Imogene Coca
• Carl Reiner
• Howie Morris
• Mel Brooks
• Dick Cavett
• Archive of American Television
  
  

Is your passport up-to-date?
