Forty-six years ago this day, The Brady Bunch filmed the King's Island episode.

Trivia: The actors playing Jan and Bobby faced probable decapitation via a forty pound camera improperly bolted down on the Racer coaster, capable of sixty mile an hour speeds, they rode in the final scene. The issue was detected and remedied at the last second.

This day in 1994, Party of Five, a show I disdained in high school but secretly watched a few times with the sound low so no one would catch me, aired for the first time on FOX.

Factoid: Chelsea Clinton said around this time that PO5 was her favorite new show.

This day in 1993 Conan O'Brien took over Late Night on NBC, to many negative reviews and few expectations of long-term survival. A decade and a half of highjinx followed amid a supporting cast that included the Masturbating Bear, Little Dead Jimmy, Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, and that coattail-riding a***ole Andy Richter.

Full House debuted in 1987, and Dave Coulier was not yet the victim of an Alanis Morissette song.

This day fifty-one years ago, 60 Minutes began its demonic run of forever inflicting itself on schoolchildren, who still associate that accursed ticking stopwatch with having to get ready for school the next morning. The horror....the horror....

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
