Yeah, well, I can remember when it was the "Wonderful World of Black & White", and the whole neighborhood crowded around the set.

Well of course it was never called that. I remember the original was called the Wonderful World of Disney but you are correct it was in Black and White on my TV too. (but did have shades of Gray)

Beulah the Buzzer says your time is up, Dale! The show, originally on ABC, was called Disneyland. When it switched over to NBC (I think in the fall of 1960) they changed the name to Wonderful World of Color.

The name was changed to Wonderful World of Disney after my time - I'm not sure when, but I figure it was after all the little kids took color for granted.

I guess my youth was wasted, spent on watching television!

Sorry, I guess my memory is going. I got it backwards. I do remember Disneyland as the name since you jogged my memory.
