What if there had been blogs in 1976? I would most definitely have had one and this might well have been it. This blog is based on my actual journal kept in 1976.

CPO Sharkey and Quark were on NBC... I used to think I was the only person in Detroit who watched either of those shows..!
ReplyDeleteIt was neat to see a young Martin Short and Shelley Smith (pre-Busom Buddies). Never even knew Mel Brooks did a show for the telly... did not stop him in his tracks though.
If you and your family watched ALL of these shows, you guys were a little out of the ordinary and I do mean this in a good way!
The days when TV shows had original theme music instead of a classic rock song.
ReplyDeleteI use to watch CPO Sharkey. I don't recall the other shows.
I recall the Partners and Roll Out...neither lasted long. CPO Sharkey lasted longer but was bad for me since I resembled Seaman Pruitt and was always getting called Pruitt by Steak & Shake customers in 1977/78. I NEVER saw Quark until I bought it on DVD recently. Never saw the Associates but I wanted to...
ReplyDeleteNever saw this the Paul Lynde or Bob Crane shows here...the Bob Crane show looks awful.
I watched very little TV from 1976-1984 due to where and who I was living with and then my later military service. I did see Lotsa Luck...it was another adaption of a UK sitcom and I thought it was not very good. Now I NEVER missed an episode of WHEN THINGS WERE ROTTEN...it's a show I really wish WAS on DVD... Only 13 eps were made. Funny show!
As you might expect...I DO have WHEN THINGS WERE ROTTEN on DVD! :) Loved that theme song!
