Top Ten #375

1) Season 13: The podcast returns next week! And that is all I will say until Thursday!

2) The Paul Lynde Halloween Special: Thanks to Jason in our Facebook group for reminding everyone, hey, it's time to start firming up plans for our annual watch parties!




3) Roosevelt Franklin: Thanks to my uncle snagging it for me, I am now the proud owner of the new action figure of this Sesame legend:



4) Farmer's Day: I could try to link to a 1982 ag report that aired at 5:00 AM, but let's save that for next year and instead give all the farmers a giant SALLLLL-UUUTE!




5) Out of the Darkness: 40 years ago tonight, CBS aired this TV movie about the Son of Sam saga. Martin Sheen and Hector Elizondo starred, and some guy named Charlie Sheen was credited as "Man Shaving."




6) Susan Anton: Happy 75th birthday to one of the big stars of the BOTNS sweet spot (1975-1985)!




7) The 1975 World Series: Game 2 of one the most remembered Fall Classics in MLB history aired on NBC 50 years ago today...at 1:00 in the afternoon! The game was played in a wet Fenway Park and was interrupted by a big rain delay.




8) Viva Valdez: I had hoped Sony would celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month by uploading another episode, but I'll just post one they already gave us:


9) ABC Weekend Special: The anthology program for kids returned with a new episode on this day in 1985: "Captain O.G. Readmore's Jack and the Beanstalk."

10)  Hockey: The NHL returned this week! For TV coverage...don't go to USA Network. They don't have it anymore.
