S8 E11 Pilot Season "Saturday Night Live"
Before there was SNL, there was NBC's Saturday Night. There was also Saturday Night Live with Howard Cosell (Don't worry, it will all make sense when you listen to the episode). There's nothing I can say about SNL that hasn't been said already, so sit back, relax, and let me tell you about the first episode, how it came about, how it was cast, and how half of Hollywood takes credits for helping Lorne create it. Like success, SNL has many fathers. Apparently.

S8 E10 Pilot Season "The Jeffersons"
If it weren't for this series, I would probably be frying fish in my kitchen and burning beans on my grill. Oh boy, do I love this show. Easily the best theme song in sitcom history, and in my not so humble opinion, the best leading man in 70s sitcom history! The Jefferson broke new ground by showcasing an affluent black family achieving the American Dream. As it turns out, money doesn't automatically erase prejudice, social tensions, or personal flaws. Huh. Who knew? Join me as I dissect the pilot and what this series meant to American television. Dry cleaning just got sexy.

S8 E9 Pilot Season "Barney Miller"
Show of hands. Who enjoys dry humor, ensemble casts, urban blight, and weary sarcasm, most of which is largely confined to one room in a grimy, confined 1970s NYC police precinct? If your hand is raised, than Barney Miller is the television program for you! I love this series and you should too! It's smart, impeccably acted, and funny as hell. However, the pilot was a little underbaked and I'm not sure the producers really knew what they wanted this series to be. So grab a cup of bitter coffee and let's chat about this 70s gem.
