Often, when listening, I don't know the shows you are discussing, since I think I am a bit younger than you all (just turned 40). However, I absolutely remember everything you discussed today. I am a huge SNL fan and hearing about the "lost season" was very interesting. The Ropers, well, I am less of a fan but watched plenty of Three's Company back in the day. And of course Glen Larson's stuff was legendary. Loved BSG with a passion! I even had the novelization of Galactica 1980, which was horrible but I loved it anyhow. Anyway, as you closed the show, I was thinking, wow, they really outdid themselves this time. There was even an Assless Chaps reference. It couldn't get much better than that, could it? And then... Then, you played the Automan intro, and I wept as I listened, enraptured. Bravo, to the three of you, you should just stop podcasting now, because you can't top this one! No, really, don't stop. But, yeah, good stuff. Thanks.

Hello! For a change, I am familiar with all three...well, topics rather than shows. Although, I must say I didn't watch any of the shows (including any of Larson's shows) regularly, I watched them. Tie-in--I worked for a few years at a publishing house named "TV Books." The connection is that TV Books was owned by Broadway Video...which was Lorne Michael's production company. (Someone neglected to point out to Michaels that publishing companies, when they are doing well, have profits in the high single digits, which was not satisfactory to him.)
