She doesnt remembere ver watching it in the morning or afternoon. When I was young we had only about 3 or 4 different channels. My bothers ,my sisters and I would sometimes fight about which channel to watch .But we usually enjoyed the same shows. Nowadays we can get hundreds of channels on TV. I cant believe it! There are channels with old movies, cooking,fishing and so on. Its amazing! There is a channel for everything.
