Show Notes: Mailbag episode #1!

*Thanks to everyone in our Facebook group who gave us topics and questions for our first mailbag bonus episode! We'll do it again, but in the meantime you can always reach us at mailbag@battleofthenetworkshows.com

And come on and join us in our FB group and talk TV! It's private but super easy to join.

*Rick here: Don't worry, folks, even though I love shows from the 1950s and 1960s, I am true blue to our beloved BOTNS era of the 1970s and 1980s as well! 

*The Munsters Today is on Peacock and NBC. It was in first-run syndication from 1977-1981, somehow accumulating more episodes than the original The Munsters! Could an episode of the pod centered on this one be in the hopper?

*Here for posterity are our lists of "5 faves" (at least at the time we recorded this):

Mike: Cheers, Magnum P.I., Search, Late Night with David LettermanColumbo
Rick: Cheers, The Love Boat, Clash of Champions, It's Garry Shandling's Show, The Odd Couple

*The Simpsons and Seinfeld did start in 1989, but we hereby declare them 1990s shows!

"Suspicious Minds" is actually a song by Mark James, but "In the Ghetto" is indeed a Mac Davis tune.

*Our first episode of the podcast premiered Thursday, September 22, 2016.

*Let's get the 1970s Spider-Man TV series (both American and Japanese) on Blu-Ray!

*Check out this week's YouTube playlist for glimpses of the shows we would like to see on DVD/Blu-Ray.

*Here is a link to Geno's great YouTube channel and another one to Steve's Illuminati Social Club podcast. Please check out their stuff as well as all the other great pods and friends of the show we mention in this episode like 20th Century Pop.

*Thanks again for your support, and get ready for the Season 8 Battys next week! Season 9 is just around the corner!
