I can remember when losing the remote only meant that you actually had to get up and go over to the TV. Now, many new TVs don’t even have external controls.
(Actually, I can remember much further back than that: Before remote controls at all, when most people didn’t even have color TVs. My dad told me how almost his whole little town gathered outside the hardware store because they had an actual television (black & white, of course) in the store window when he was a teenager!
