It probably wasn't the first time I laughed at the TV, that was probably some cartoon.
But the first time I remember laughing at the TV, that was Dick Martin. I was 5 or 6. Just before a commercial break, the camera cut to him and he said "Horse!" and then the camera cut away from him. That was just amazingly funny to me.
A few years later I realized that the real joke, if you could call it that, was that he was just saying the first syllable of "horse-(poop)". Maybe it would have been funnier to me when I saw it if he had said "Horsepoop!" but hey I wasn't 3 anymore.
