Top Ten #296: Special "Protect your eyes tomorrow" edition!
1) Total Eclipse of the Heart: I have this video in my head for some reason today.
Remember, people, be smart tomorrow and always. Never, ever look directly at Doc Severinsen's outfit.
2) Joe Flaherty: Special shout to the late Joe Flaherty, our Robert Pine Genius Award winner at the Season 9 Battys. What else can I say except he made us laugh real good.
3) National Beer Day: Speaking of Mr. Pine, you know we suggest you celebrate with a Lowenbrau:
5) Dinah, Won't You Please Come Home: 50 years ago tonight, Dinah Shore starred in this music special from Nashville on NBC, welcoming guests like Glen Campbell, Isaac Hayes, and...Jack Benny? Maybe he played fiddle.
6) Michael Douglas: The star of Streets of San Francisco has been making the media rounds to promote upcoming Apple Plus show Franklin, in which he plays the legendary stateman--Ben, not Franklin Pierce--with a twinkle in his eye.
Come to think of it, has he reached the age when he plays everything with a twinkle in his eye?
7) National No Housework Day: The boys can give Mickey the day off.
8) The National Invitational Tournament: I have always maintained that the winner of the NCAA tourney is just a paper champ unless it accepts the challenge of the NIT winner.
9) Sanford: In a lean month for new shows on streaming, this show stands out as one of the few adds I saw--the 1980 version of the show. Tubi now has, uh, a handful of episodes of each of its two seasons. Well, I said it was a lean month.
10) R.I.P. Barbara Rush, Barbara Baldavin:
(Note: Post was edited to correct an error in the Joe Flaherty item. We featured SCTV in Season 9, not Season 10. We may be able to pick Geniuses, but apparently I am far from one!)
