How many tvs did your childhood home have?

Most of my childhood, one. Black and white until I was about 7, then we got a color TV. That was about 1965. When the color tv died my mom moved it into the Living room because "it was too nice a piece of furniture to throw out". So we had two then, but only one that worked. When my mom passed away in 2013 I took the nice piece of furniture TV to the dump. It had been in the house nearly 50 years, only the first 10 or so was it working.
And yes, we had 4 channels. ABC, CBS, NBC and NET. NET later became PBS.
We must have had the same Mother's at different times. In 1961 my parents bought one of those Cabinet B&W TV's with Fm and Am radio and a turntable. The TV gave out about 10 years later, but since the radio and turntable was still working she felt it was way to nice a piece of furniture to throw out so it sat out on their sun porch until she passed in 2005 it was then put to out of its misery. Still a beautiful piece of furniture but completely useless except to hold knick knacks and pictures of grandchildren.
