This wonderful 80’s lost treasure only aired from March 18, 1981 to February 3, 1983 and with only 45 episodes it didn’t make a huge dent in tv history but for this guy it was forever a classic. What a cast by the way. Robert Culp was a star but William Katt was fairly new to the star thing. It was the first time I remember seeing Connie Selleca and Michael Pare’. Here is a great YouTube channel I found […]

We hear LOTS of rumors about these fun-loving party carousing drinkers but how much of that is true. Now, we could sit and debate for hours but there’s one thing you cant deny, their comradely was contagious! If you go back and listen to the banter between this group of […]

We always love to explore the earliest days of television to see how things were done. This wiki article was fascinating! It reads: “Radio giant RCA began daily experimental television broadcasts in New York City in March 1929 over station W2XBS, the predecessor of current television station WNBC.

Now for those of you who are true […]

Remember little Tommy Bradford on Eight Is Enough? Of course you do. I’ll bet Willie Aames was on Tiger Beat Magazine as much as anybody back in the day. The hearthrob Bradford was to teens what his TV older sibling Grant Goodeve was to the 20-somethings of the late 70’s. Willie’s story is amazing. AND LET ME SAY THIS… He was THE MOST HONEST INTERVIEW I have ever had. He shared personal moments of his life that can help any […]

LISTEN TO THE SHOW HERE She was one of Hitchcock’s most famous blondes. Tippi Hedren was the classic beauty we loved in Hitch’s “The Birds” (1963). Tippi plays a wealthy San Francisco playgirl follows a potential boyfriend to a small Northern California town where birds of all kinds suddenly begin to attack people. You know the plot. I remember this one as one of the first horror movies I ever saw. Of course I saw the edited for television […]

Hi all. Just a quick note about a pioneer in Saturday morning cartoons from the 60s and 70s. If you were like me you couldn’t wait to see what the new Saturday morning cartoon line-up would hold each year. Names like H.R. Puffinstiuff, The Kroft Supershow and Sigmund and The Sea Monsters. Well, in addition to being big hits these shows had one thing in common. They were the products of the genius minds of Sid and Marty Kroft. Sid […]
