Back when we lived in Alabama they had three TV stations and they went off the air at night. One of the couples that lived behind our house were from NYC and the wife worked the 2nd shift at the hospital. She would get off in the middle of the night and turn on TV in NYC and there were lots of stations broadcasting. She was astonished that there was honestly nothing at all on TV. Of course she was used to grocery stopping at 2:00 AM and that was was not gonna happen back then. Heck wit the blue laws no grocery stores and few businesses were open on Sunday.
