Monday Evening TV 1965 - 50 years ago

Thought I would try this again. Monday had some very well remembered shows.
Times are Eastern:

7:30:
ABC - Voyage To The Bottom of the Sea (7:30 - 8:30)
CBS - To Tell The Truth (7:30 - 8)
NBC - Karen (7:30 - 8)

8:
CBS - I've Got A Secret (8 - 8:30)
NBC - The Man From UNCLE (8 - 9)

8:30:
ABC - No Time For Sargeants (8:30 - 9)
CBS - The Andy Griffith Show (8:30 - 9)

9:
ABC - Wendy And Me (9 - 9:30)
CBS - The Lucy Show (9 - 9:30)
NBC - The Andy Williams Show (9 - 10)

9:30:
ABC - The Bing Crosby Show (9:30 - 10)
CBS - The Danny Thomas Show (9:30 - 10)

10:
ABC - Ben Casey (10 - 11)
CBS - Various (10 -11) - must have been rotating shows
NBC - The Alfred Hitchcock Hour (10 - 11)

Per the article:
This is the first full season in which NBC broadcast more than 50% of its schedule in color, a fact which the network emphasized during its September 19–25 premiere week.[1]
CBS and ABC, still mostly in black and white, continued rolling out rural sitcoms;

Added note - "The Lucy Show" is not to be confused with "I Love Lucy"

I remember Voyage To The Bottom of the Sea and The Man From UNCLE being on TV, but that's about it. I might have watched Andy Griffith back then.
