Buck and Roy were extremely fine musicians.

Though I never have warmed-up to my reruns of my grandmother’s Lawrence Welk Program.

My father who was from the WW II generation was a big Lawrence Welk fan. I agree that it's just a little too old fashion for me to get into as well. The few times I've tried to watch a re-run on PBS, I would start nodding off after about 10 minutes.

"Lawrence Welk"

Imagine having one channel when you're a young kid. You watch whatever programs are on the one channel. My parents had Welk on every Saturday evening. In the bitterly cold winters of Wisconsin in the fifties and early sixties, polka music Saturday afternoon and Welk at night. Believe me, that got tiresome real quickly.
