Space Ghost: Coast to Coast. Sometimes my parents let me stay up to watch it, but they stopped after some dumb gag scared me and I started crying.

Cheers. Every weeknight, walking down the hallway to the sound of “Making your way in the world today takes everything you’ve got…”
My mum recorded this and would play it when she wanted me to goto bed early.
Xfiles theme song.
As soon as that shit came on I ran to bed. Fuuuck that, terrifying.

Local news ending or TNG opening
Literally the closing signal of the evening tales show, the Hungarian “Television Bear”.

Not really a show, but Im familiar with the old CBC (canada) sign-off. Wasn’t really my bed time either, I have insomnia disorder, I would just read books after the tv went off-air for the night. I’m also familiar with the CBC sign-on, and the first program on in the morning was 100 Huntley Street, followed by the PTL Club, before Jim and Tammy Faye went to jail.
“Come and knock on our door…”
M.A.S.H
My bed was in view of the living room TV, as long as I kept my head under the covers and pretended to be asleep I could watch MASH.
For me that meant that dinner was half an hour away. That tune always makes me hungry now.
When Cartoon Network went off and changed to Adult Swim, and this theme song started playing, you knew that it was time to go get some rest. Especially if it was on a weekend. On Sunday, it meant the fun was up, it was time to sleep and get ready for school the next day. And it was always the first show to air on the block every single night.
Memories.
Not always bedtime but the stopwatch to start 60 Minutes was a weekly reminder that the party is over and school is imminent.
Damn, I felt that. 😩
That ominous stopwatch ticking every morning meant that it was time to get on the school bus and that the party was over.
Wait what? You watched 60 Minutes everyday? It was always Sunday evenings from my memories, during winter usually right after a Football game, don’t remember the exact timing tho.
