    That TV spot for "The Watcher in the Woods" was prior to the movie being yanked from release by Disney so that the film could be extensively re-edited and new footage incorporated. It finally found its way back into cinemas the following year.

      @@ChristopherSobieniak Even for Disney today. They still don't want to restore the original cut for Blu-ray, but they will let out an alternate opening. Ron Miller still put limits on how dark Disney could go even though he was the one pushing them out of their G-rated box. I wish Disney had restored it, then they could say "we can edit your movies better than you can."

    The critics ripped this thing to pieces faster than you can say chew-toy, but I thought it was a well-made program. A lot better done than most kiddie trash. But nobody ever watched it, and NBC sat on the 2nd season for a year before finally burning it off as strike filler. One of the episodes had been rotting on the shelf for so long that its special guest star (Victor Buono) had been dead for 5 months when it finally aired -- almost as long as the show itself had been dead. (Never mind that it was an intended Halloween episode.)

      In the 1970s, when popularity replaced moral rectitude, there was nothing less "cool" then being a family show or movie. That changed in the 1980s with Disney's comeback and when Baby Boomers started having children.

    • @Attmay
      @Attmay 2 года назад

      They put it on the two worst nights they had: Friday (where *Star Trek* went to die) and Sunday (where nothing could beat *60 Minutes* except a copy of it), and they scattered it over three TV seasons. I only ever saw it because The Disney Channel had it in reruns in the 1980s and I managed to tape it once since it was on after the movie I wanted to tape, *The Three Caballeros.*

      It originally WAS a Saturday morning show called The Red Hand Gang in 1977, this was Boomer's first appearance.
      In 1979, Boomer got a pilot movie called A Christmas For Boomer which led to the 1980-1982 series.

    Facts Of Life in its first season with a young Molly Ringwald and Helen Hunt appeared in an episode as a dope smoking student, for its next season they would change the theme song. get rid of four girls, and bring in Nancy McKeon and what looked like would be a short lived show would get another eight years

      Especially since the contestant was Eric Kaplan, who went on to win the $100k tournament. Four years later, Kaplan appeared on Lange's NTT as one of 14 $100k winners from Tom's version in the Super Champ tournament, and got all the way to the finals against Elena Cervantes. Eric swept through the first two games but Elena won the next two and the second $100K.

    I remember the day before this (5/1/80) Boomer made a guest appearance on Carson's Tonight Show, and I remember Shelley Winters was on the same show. Around this time Carson announced his intention to stay w/ NBC in return for shortening the show to 60 mins. & giving him ownership of the show.
    I recognize both Henry Jones & Jeanette Nolan from the opening teaser. I recall seeing Al Molinaro on a different episode aired a couple weeks earlier.
    I'm surprised NBC would air a major motion picture from the last 5 years on a Friday night.
