Ep. 109 | The Fall Preview Issue
Before there was streaming, dreaming, or creaming (#KramerVsCreamer), Americans were legally forced to watch the same shows at the same time. THANKS, OBAMA. There were two ways to know what to watch: boozing all day with the TV on as a dangerously hungry baby cries endlessly, or - BORING ALERT - consulting your handy TV Guide. And no issue of this once-ubiquitous weekly was more enthralling than the annual, overstuffed Fall Preview Guide.
So, longtime TV Guide-devotees Tony & T.J. chose this legendary format to preview the absurd number of Beatles-related product coming out this fall, as well as a recap of some summer repeats. But wait! Subscribe today and you’ll get:
👍 CHEERS: Is NBC’s Prime Time at 6:30 and NBC’s Prime Time at 7:30 the same thing? Or did they feature different shows/strokes/sheriffs?
👎 JEERS: Do the Brecker Brothers still host Breckers with the Beatles? Or are they merely a long running Ted Danson show that nobody actually watched?
👍 CHEERS: Did Svengolie record his sexy sax solo on a new Ringo track in BERWYN?
It’s the Untitled Beatles Podcast’s Fall Preview Guide - airing exclusively on Channels 2, 5, 7, 9, 11, 32, 44, 50 (née 60), and WGBO TV Superstation 66.
