Remember when television was GOOD? As the world makes the inevitable shift to internet streaming, I find that upon looking back on the American broadcasting industry we can find a common culture that most people take for granted. Join me as we sift through 70+ years of television‘s greatest hits, misses, trends, careers, and strange oddities.

1:20 I Love Lucy had higher ratings than any sitcom or half hour show today, and there were few people alive back then and a smaller chunk of the population owned TV's.
I loved the Clueless TV Series as much as I love the Clueless movie. Clueless premiered on ABC September 20,1996 during the Fall 1996 Season and aired on ABC’s TGIF during the 1996-1997 Season but got cancelled by ABC in February 1997, soon after repeats aired which brought high ratings but it was too late for ABC to get the show back due to the fact that UPN picked up Clueless for the 1997-1998 Season and so ABC prevented UPN from broadcasting Clueless until their contract expired in September. Clueless began its second season September 23,1997 and aired on Tuesdays following Moesha where it would remain until UPN cancelled the series after its 3rd Season on May 25,1999 due to declining viewership.
ABC's TGIF block (1989-2000) began to die in the fall of 1997: stemming from a combination of aging sitcoms like Family Matters and Step by Step moving to CBS (who started - and ended - their own family-friendly Friday night sitcom line-up in 1997-98 called "The Block Party"), the oversaturation of supernatural/magic type shows (Sabrina the Teenage Witch and new series You Wish and Teen Angel, the latter of which both lasted only one season), the failure of Two of a Kind (which was the last sitcom produced by the previously reliable Miller-Boyett group) starring the Olsen twins the following year. Ultimately, the ending of Boy Meets World after seven seasons and Sabrina, The Teenage Witch moving to The WB after the 1999-2000 season. ABC would bring back the TGIF brand for the 2003-05 & 2018-19 seasons, but it never met the same success it had before.

I recall hearing that "Seinfeld" was the third show in history to be #1 in the ratings during it's final season. The first two were "I Love Lucy" and "The Andy Griffith Show". In the 1990s, each network had their best night. ABC had TGIF on Fridays. Fox had Sunday nights with "Married With Children", "In Living Color" and "The Simpsons". ABC broke through on Thursday nights when "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" beat "Jesse" in the ratings.
1:00 boiling point is great film based on the book money men by a great author gerald petievich who is the same author who did to live and die in la which is also in the same universe with the book money men and this film..
I cannot believe that Radio Flyer (1992) was going to be a PG rated film. This is very stupid that they had a PG-13 rated film before it opened in theaters.
I compiled this episode from four other parts I found on RU-vid. Only three episodes were aired in the US, but in the UK, Germany, Hong Kong, and The Netherlands, all 13 episodes were shown. I have not been able to find any more episodes online.
Ok I try to keep this as short as possible. 1. Since YT invention I uploaded hundreds of vintage and/or rare early Jodie Foster episodes, movies, appearances, snippets and thanks to three strikes law had to create a number of dedicated YT channels over the years - so many that I even can't remember the names or logins now. At peak they had combined subs of several K and viewer numbers in the mid six digits. After a while it got exhausting to re-upload again and again. Just to have another idiot company nobody heard of claiming copyrights. The plan was to prevent the old stuff from getting lost forever. YT is only a good solution for this if you keep re-uploading bc tons of vids simply disappear over the years. I can only guess more copyrighted stuff today can stay bc of the many ads they show us. Anyway, congrats your compilations made it thru the filters and please keep up the great work! 2. Since you can already tell: I'm a Fosterist. I've contributed to wiki com/fr/de, IMDb and several movie boards for..I can't remember. So yes, imdb isn't perfect but got approx. 95 percent right of their JF entry (doubting Jeopardy) And because you put quite an effort into these videos, in return you might find this interesting ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GGYkpBU4GfY.html from one my ruined channels. Medical Center and My Three Sons was there, too. Guess what happened. 3. and final. Maybe it's more helpful to tell you what is considered lost. Alexander, one of her three ABC Afterschool Specials. My Sister Hank, CBS pilot only. Love Story ep. The Youngest Lovers. Oreo commercial, kids shampoo commercial. The full version of BBC's documentary Americans episode The Film Star of which you can find an edited version on one my other channels just put it in the search box. This doc is also of historical importance bc it has JF's first directorial work Hands of Time. AMA early Jodie Foster and The Little Girl Who Lives Down The Lane. Visit jodiefostermuseum.blogspot.com
