The It Was a Thing on TV Podcast Network

In 1986, NBC expected to air Saturday Night Live in its usual post-news time slot.  The New York Mets had other plans, forcing SNL's hand to record that night's show in the dead of night, and causing the episode to air weeks later.

The gang returns to the world of Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction for this episode which has a Halloween theme in one of the segments.

Is one man actually being haunted by a meddling trick or treater who's pretending to be the grim reaper on Halloween night?

Can a mysterious drifter help Roy from The Office find love with his wife?

Is it possible that two people who are about to be married can turn out to be seperated at birth?

These mysteries will be answered as we once again go Beyond Belief!

We start Halloween off looking at an obscurity from the early 90s which apparently has a small cult following.  Originally, this was called She-Wolf of London but due to budget cuts and production moving from London to Los Angeles, the show underwent a format change and went by Love and Curses.

ABC went against the grain with some of their TGIF offerings.  First, Dinosaurs aired during TGIF.  Second, it was followed by Camp Wilder, an untraditional family sitcom loaded with future star power.

This past summer we encountered through IMDB in one of our episodes this Netflix teen romantic comedy based on a YA book.

Greg and Chico sit through the movie that started an era that both of them had no idea even was an era.

Can young Elle end up with her best friend Lee's hot brother? Can Greg and Chico make it through this movie in one piece?

Follow the rulebook as Greg and Chico enter the The Kissing Booth.

After Westworld, the movie but before Westworld, the HBO series, there was a very brief TV series titled Beyond Westworld.  In 1980, CBS attempted to continue the story of robots gone amok, the agents hired to stop them, and their creator from taking over the world.

Since the new fall TV season has gotten underway, we thought it was time to release the Director's Cut version of our Fall TV Campaigns episode from last year.

We have about 45 minutes of new material added from the original version that we released over on the Place to Be Nation last year.

So let's all be there for this look back at one of our best episodes as we give you the touch.

It's the early 1980s and the Brady kids have grown up and are ready to begin adulthood.  Two of the Brady daughters got married, the couples moved in together, and Alice joined them for some reason.  Typical Sherwood Schwartz hilarity ensued...briefly.

Before baseball season began in 1999, during a viewer mail segment, a viewer asked David Letterman how Letterman prepared for opening day.  The response was the first of three appearances of this segment, Ball, Get Out of My Nachos.

In this installment, we mark the 40th anniversary of the compact disc by going down under and all around the world for ABC Australia's coverage of the breakthrough technology.  Someone should have warned people in 1982 to not touch the bottoms of CDs.
