“Gasoline Alley” is /exactly/ where children grown up. When the strip started, Boog’s great-grandfather hadn’t been born yet. Some people say “Gasoline Alley” was the world’s first soap opera; the way things are going on daytime TV, maybe it will end up being the last.
I grew up watching and still do, I even did an informative presentation on the history of soaps and got an A. Soaps gave homemakers who were waiting for their husbands to come home from the war something to take their mind off things for a sort while.
