You may have seen this before, but it's new to me and I thought it was funny. All the colors were chosen to show up well in B&W. TV lied to us!

Color film existed a lot earlier than most people think. It was just expensive and unreliable compared to black and white. Plus color TVs took a lot longer to adopt than adapt black and white broadcasts took to include color. The Wizard of Oz was a movie while The Adams Family was a show. They had different constraints.
