Buftex Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 Tonight...Mary Tyler Moore, and they're supposed to show the Chuckles episode! I had forgotten how attractive MTM was circa 1975. I never thought she was a classic beauty, but she's just so dang cute. Tomorrow...Barney Miller. I wonder if the hash brownies will be on? That's my favorite episode, and I haven't seen it in 25 years. Wednesday...Taxi (Hail Marilu Henner!) Thursday...Welcome Back Kotter. Does Epstein have a note from his mother? Friday...WKRP, so we can all salivate at Bailey. 8:00 - 10:00 Eastern time. All great shows, except Welcome Back Kotter. I loved this show as a kid, would watch it on the American station during the week, and then again on Canadian tv on Saturday afternoons...but it does not age well. Have you seen it as an adult? Is it not even remotely funny...it was pretty much each character during their schtick every week, their performances tied together, very loosely, by some inane plot...kind of like porn, without the sex...Mrs Kotter was a fox though! I remember not too long ago, me and my girlfriend, and her daughters watching it on Nick at Nite. We were telling them, it was the show to watch when we growing up. About halfway through, we were getting that sort of cokced eyebrow "really?" look from the girls... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your children ever find out how lame you really are, they're gonna murder you in your sleep. -- Frank Zappa, quoted from Whole Grains, an early 1970's book of quotations Then you can say, "You know how cool Trent Reznor is? He's pretty cool right? Well, back in the 70s then entire country thought this guy was at least 100 times cooler. At least. The entire country had lost its collective mind." So there you go.

My wife firmly believes that Fonzie had to overcompensate for "short man's disease". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
