Welcome! Welcome!

Here, I riff on old TV clips shown on YouTube, and you share in the joy. It's like having me sitting next to you on the couch, but different. Ya know?

1966 Thursday Night Lineup



Poor mousy Judy Carne. Her "Love on the Rooftop" won't survive, and it shows. She's hopelessly lost between Elizabeth Montgomery's smooth, finishing-school charm and Marlo Thomas' deliberate adorableness.

History will prove that Carne does not belong on that couch. She'll make her mark later, as the "sock-it-to-me girl" on Laugh In. Here, she attempts to explain that she's not really going anywhere, and don't we know it.

Marlo makes a game attempt to sum up the Thursday night lineup, and even though it is akin to brain surgery, she decides to simplify and simply lays down the law: leave your TV tuned to ABC starting at 8:30. Sold!
