The sad anniversary is with us - 44 years ago it ended. I rushed home at top speed from Washington Jr. High School so as not to miss a minute. As the final credits rolled, I cried. This had been a part of my life since June 0f 1966. The characters felt like family. On the following Monday, hoping beyond hope that ABC had changed its mind, I turned the TV back on but it was gone. There was Password. We still had plenty of outlets for our DS fixes: the Marilyn Ross novels, the Gold Key comic books and, for those whose local press carried it, the comic strip (ours didn't). There was still one more movie. Se got close to an additional year of DS things, but it wasn't the same.
