Back when I was a kid, I used to hate waking up in the middle of the night to a dark room with only the faint glow of the VCR time display as the only source of light illuminating the far side of my room, and invariably it was at 1:11AM, which provided the least amount of light. But 12:45AM was the brightest, so at least then I could see if the monsters looked hungry or not.
