With an apologetic, yet necessary, recall of the Wonder Twins.
One of the creepiest shows of the 1970s. Forget about kitschy horror. Night Stalker was genuinely scary and Darren McGavin was a rockstar journalist.
My first Fav list podcast for Best Episode Ever. Inspired by a Twitter exchange with frequent listener, critic, and fellow podcaster @scarboroughdude, I present my Top Ten Fav Sitcoms of all-time. This list is strictly personal and not based on any merit other than my personal reflection. That said, I welcome your input through comments, email or twitter.
A remembrance of all things interstitial (but not necessarily commercial) between my 70's Saturday morning cartoons.
The best animated series that is never remembered as a series.
Now, the world don't move to the beat of just one drum,
What might be right for you, may not be right for some.
A man is born, he's a man of means.
Then along come two, they got nothing but their jeans.
But they got, Diff'rent Strokes.
It takes, Diff'rent Strokes.
It takes, Diff'rent Strokes to move the world.
Everybody's got a special kind of story
Everybody finds a way to shine,
It don't matter that you got not alot
So what,
They'll have theirs, and you'll have yours, and I'll have mine.
And together we'll be fine....
Because it takes, Diff'rent Strokes to move the world.
Yes it does.
It takes, Diff'rent Strokes to move the world.
Here's the story of a lovely lady,
Who was bringing up three very lovely girls.
All of them had hair of gold, like their mother,
The youngest one in curls.
Here's the story, of a man named Brady,
Who was busy with three boys of his own.
They were four men, living all together,
Yet they were all alone.
Till the one day when the lady met this fellow,
And they knew that it was much more than a hunch.
That this group would somehow form a family.
That's the way we all became the Brady Bunch.
The Brady Bunch, The Brady Bunch.
That's the way we became the Brady Bunch.
Teenagers solving mysteries with a talking shark who plays drums or a talk dune buggy? It all goes back to Scooby Doo and the recycled plotlines of Hanna Barbera.
Hey, it was the 70s. I was a kid, and I loved it!
Love, exciting and new.
Come Aboard. We're expecting you.
Love, life's sweetest reward.

Love Boat soon will be making another run.
The Love Boat promises something for everyone.
Set a course for adventure,
Your mind on a new romance.
Love won't hurt anymore.
It's an open smile on a friendly shore.

Welcome aboard it's LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE!
