This day in 1993 Conan O'Brien took over Late Night on NBC, to many negative reviews and few expectations of long-term survival.

This day in 1963, producers of ABC's new series, The Outer Limits began arguing, "We are not just a Twilight Zone ripoff!"

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....

Fifty-four years ago today, the Beatles became a Saturday Morning Cartoon on ABC, and in a related note, John Lennon went on a shame-fueled drinking spree that resulted in him waking up in bed three weeks later with a strange Japanese woman wearing his mother's wedding ring. Yup, that's how it happened....

That is my understanding of those events.

Fifteen years ago today Conan was given the nod to eventually replace Jay on The Tonight Show.

I'm sure in some alternate universe everything turned out just fine.

Did he crush the jeweled thrones of the world beneath his sandaled feet?

All the while muttering "KROM" under his breath.

Fifty-seven years ago this very day, Johnny Carson took up hosting duties on The Tonight Show. A master of the witty comeback and an early pioneer of sketch comedy, over his thirty year tenure more than 10,000 guests would appear on Carson's stage, and he would go on to invent one of the most popular fictional characters in entertainment history....Johnny Carson.

NBC's Saturday Night, then a comedy, debuted forty-four years ago this day. It went on to be re-named Saturday Night Live, and eventually stopped being a comedy.

This day in 1977, NBC aired KISS Meets the Phantom of the Park. Seventy-nine little old church ladies keeled over in their parlors, and the devil snared at least 3,000 teenage souls.

I saw it!  :thumbup:

I liked it back then (of course I was a teenage metalhead).
I watch it now-it's like a live action Scooby-Doo. And KISS cannot act.

I saw Kiss on Don Kirshner's Rock Concert. I had some of they're records. I had a poster- a big one- of Space Ace hanging on my wall. Right nest to my green black lite poster of Frankenstein.
This was about 1975. I was 13! I started buying comic books like a drug addict. I worked picking asparagus and pickles to make money.

It was 1977!

It was a simpler time.

Twenty-four years ago today ABC aired a six-hour Beatles documentary that saw the release of a video for the band's hit single Free as a Bird. I actually remember that night and that video and all the Easter eggs in it (The Fool on the Hill, Here Lies Eleanor Rigby, etc.) Greatest band of all time....even with fake Paul.
