4) Presidential inauguration: As we witness the transfer of power in the USA tomorrow, let's look back at 40 years ago tonight, when ABC broadcast a gala inauguration special featuring (I am guessing here and not looking it up): Frank Sinatra, Lee Greenwood, Pat Boone, The Beach Boys.
OK, I looked it up, and I got Sinatra and the Beach Boys right!
5) The Jeffersons: Antenna TV is celebrating the 50th anniversary of the show all weekend.
6) Sally Struthers: She went on the Let's Talk About That! podcast and called Betty White a passive-aggressive and mean woman, but she said she used to have a great time gossiping with Bea Arthur in the supermarket. She also said Norman Lear cribbed the idea for All in the Family from Carroll O'Connor and then took credit for it for 50 years. I love it!
7) National Popcorn Day: Just the thing for when you watch the Sally Struthers interview!
8) Dolly Parton: Happy birthday, Dolly!
9) Gilligan's Island: Start gearing up for the Season 12 Battys with a marathon of the show on Catchy Comedy today. I think they're showing the one where Gilligan costs them a chance at getting rescued at about 2:00.
10) R.I.P. David Duclon, David Lynch, Black Bart, Leslie Charleson: What a rough week! Here we see a promo from one of the shows Duclon produced, a commercial Lynch directed, an early match of wrestler Bart, and a commercial with future General Hospital star Charleson.
