Anyone else remember how they used to devote a summer half-hour or hour of primetime to run a special featuring their great new Saturday morning lineup?<BR/><BR/>I remember one in particular where Steve Austin, the Six-Million-Dollar Man himself, was racing to deliver the lineup (which even 7-year-old me could tell was generic footage).<BR/><BR/>I also, sadly, remember These Are the Days. It was weird because, as the SF lineup indicates, it wasn't a part of the pack. I'm reasonably sure in the Minneapolis/St. Paul market where I grew up, it was run on Sundays. Again, 7-year-old me saw through it when one particular episode of TWTD featured one of the Day children finding a watch and giving it to an elder Day as a gift, only to learn later that the watch had been lost by his/her teacher--a point-by-point ripoff of an episode of The Partridge Family from 2 years previous.rkempehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02274432619135970060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14002590.post-65701131427084671122008-03-27T10:33:00.000-07:002008-03-27T10:33:00.000-07:00Yes but the best Saturday morning viewing ever (al...Yes but the best Saturday morning viewing ever (althought I now own the Trek Animated Series after the fact) was Emergency +4! http://eplus4.danawheels.net/Deannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01982223330215608312noreply@blogger.com
