That was us until I was 12, except for we got 4 channels through most of the day and for a couple hours we could almost make out another one through the snow.  Then we moved out to NoCal and had to get cable or watch nothing.

Just finished the first book (on CD), and it also kicks ass.

I remember watching Ultra Man and Kimba the White Lion on UHF channel 52 in San Francisco when I was 9.

Loved Ultraman and Kimba.  And wasn't that UHF channel 44, or did 52 go off the air before I got there in '78?  I also loved Marine Boy and Speed Racer.

Yep, you are correct, it was channel 44. Channel 52 was its sister station here in LA, with practically the identical anime lineup. I conflated my wife's memories with my own. As children, we were both watching Speed Racer in 1968, 600 miles apart, a fact never to be underestimated. Meeting someone you knew in a past life is nothing compared to that.

Season 4 was absolutely amazing.  John Lithgow was a great villain.

There are a lot of loose ends that Dexter is going to have to scramble to tie up, or he's in a heap-load of shit for season 5.

Have they shown the finale yet?  I've been waiting until I can watch the whole season at once.
