This Day in TV History: Marjoe's BLISTERING performance on Medical Center would earn him a Batty

50 years ago tonight, CBS went up against the season premiere of Monday Night Football and TV movie What's the Matter with Helen? (NBC) at 10:00 with a new episode of Medical Center called "Demi-God."

Helen is a 1971 horror movie with Debbie Reynolds and Shelley Winters. Here's a look at the trailer:
