1971 - "The Lawrence Welk Show" was seen for the last time on ABC-TV.
My mom grew up being forced to watch the LWS. She hated it. Probably because she wasn't given a choice. I love it, and often have it on on Sunday afternoons. Yes, the songs are cheesy, as is the "acting." But I love the costumes! I've always dreamed of wearing flowy dresses like the girls wore. And singing cheesy songs with my sisters. I'll pass on the big hair, though.
