On that note, I also remember TV shows as a kid, the parents always came out in full pajamas, fuzzy slippers, and a robe on. "Who dresses like that?" I thought. Didn't know a single person in SoCal that did, to this day even. In fact summers I'd live in swim trunks (only) for three solid months.

Even in Washington, DC, which isn't New England, I can get away with bumping around the house in shorts and tee shirt only until about the end of September.

Of course, the TV shows were largely filmed around LA, so maybe the cast got hardship pay for the costumes.

TV produces so many ideas per second. Young minds absorb them not realizing they come from a bunch of stressed out writers in a room. The ideas are really transient but that moment on TV makes it seem so important.
