We were one of the fortunate families to have a color TV, but since I was the only fledgling trekkie in the house, I was never able to watch it at home. Instead, I knew a neighbor five houses down that had a color TV and that he always left his front door open. It was possible to see his TV through his screen door. I used to sneak out of the house and up on his porch and watch the show through his screen door.
