Lou Grant sounds good. I always enjoy Dean Santoro’s work.
What are you tuning into?

I’m watching House Calls at 9:30 for Dack Rambo and Dack Rambo only.

Sometimes they aired it twice in a row, which I referred to as the Dack Stack.

Forget ultrasounds, Pro-Life religious conservatives should show pregnant women considering abortions this episode of Quincy.

I'm watching The Last Convertible; I loved those trashy miniseries based on equally-trashy book club novels!

R4 What do you expect? It's June. Nearly everything in primetime is a rerun!

Wow, they really made Bruce Boxleitner look dorky at R8. I didn't recognize him at first.

I would suggest watching "The Rehearsal" at 10:30pm.
This Gus Giordano ballet features one of his company's lead dancers, Jeffrey Mildenstein.

Fantasy Island and Three Stooges, but I'd tell everyone I watched Hidden Struggles.

Flipping between Quincy, the NACCP conference, and Wimbeldon.

Quincy will hook you and put a stop to your flipping, missy.

I’m very glad that “The Three Stooges” listing at 1:10am is specified as COMEDY.
I might have tuned in mistakenly thinking it was the hard-hitting drama also titled “The Three Stooges.”

Not watching Fantasy Island.....that cunt Celeste Holm is on!
I guess it's Dame Edith Evans for me!

Tom Snyder always has great guests. And definitely watching The Rehearsal.

June 29, 1981 was a Monday. I was at NYU at the time but of course this was summertime. I had a night job and probably didn’t get home until about 12:30am.
What I typically watched was David Letterman, then the Mare-athon (three episodes of the MTM Show and then the three eps of Bob Newhart. I’m not sure what I would have watched in 1981, though, because Letterman didn’t start until late winter of 1982.

What location is this? Lots of different markets overlap it seams. In NYC, each network had only one station unless you counted the Long Island PBS.

Wimbledon commentator, Billie Jean King, had just come out the month before in May 1981.

For the PBS types, "The Ambassadors" looks promising. It's part of the "BBC Play of the Month" series where they broadcast a filmed version of a stage play.
Seeing David Huffman's name listed as one of the actors reminds me that he was murdered by a 16-year old in San Diego in a violent attack just four years later.

I actually can’t tell. I collect issues of the French surrealist magazine Minotaure and purchased one a few months ago. The seller padded the package with assorted, very old pages from magazines and newspapers. This page from TV Guide was in there.
