On another note, ever wonder why there was never a Dad in the Partridge Family?

I wondered when it came on, way too late for me to be up and watching. Friday Nights at my house was always tuned to ABC, I loved The Brady Bunch and The Partridge Family. I used to want to see The Partridge Family so badly that I would be sitting in a restaurant with the checkered table cloths and the candles , I guess it was an Italian one and lo and behold, The Partridge Family would come out and start singing. But no luck ) : I had no idea they really didn't sing together. Just Shirley and David and another bunch of singers.

Gunsmoke was what my family watched , maybe that's why I don't remember seeing Nanny And The Professor. I knew it originally came on Friday nights. Jenny Augutter was a good actress. I seen her in Logan's Run and I have also seen her in a movie called Walkabout, which was made that year. It was about two children, a boy about seven, and a girl about fifteen. Their father went insane and tried to kill them in the desert in Australia. The two children meet an Aboriginal boy and he teaches them survival skills. They used to show it on television sometimes, but they had eo edit out scenes where Jenny swims naked and another scene where all three children are swimming naked. I have a DVR of it from last year. It's a very good movie.

I can tell you were looking at a W WA State TV Guide, as all the stations in the ads were Seattle-based. NANNY AND THE PROFESSOR was left all alone in its time slot this year, w/ an open half-hour for the ABC affilates before MNF. NANNY was rarely carried at its scheduled time that season in ET or CT, as the affiliates figured it was easier to program the full hour from 8-9 PM ET before MNF and dump NANNY in early evening on the weekend, if they carried the show at all. It's pretty certain that this dumping happened w/ all ABC affiliates in time zones farther west, as MNF started at 7 PM MT and 6 PM PT, and affiliates didn't want to carry the show after MNF. NANNY died a lonely death that season, ending when MNF did at the end of December. I vaguely remember seeing the HERE'S LUCY opening Monday nights at 9 PM ET, as I remember the sponsor mention of Lever Bros. This was Doris Day's 1st season w/o her 2 boys, as she was now expected to emulate MTM's free single life. 10-11 PM ET was a terrible time for CBS to dump MY THREE SONS & ARNIE, and both shows were moved to earlier time slots on other nights after a few months before their cancellations at the end of the season. ABC decided to keep MOD SQUAD at 7:30 PM ET Tuesday, instead giving back the half hour between NANNY & MNF on Monday nights. This move angered the other networks, their affiliates, and producers of syndicated programming, as this Tuesday night exception ruined the chance of running syndicated "strip" programming, which were same or similar programs mostly to be aired in that 7:30 PM ET slot. ABC, and as a result the other networks, freed 7:30 PM ET to the affiliates from the 1972-73 season onward. Tuesday nights CBS & NBC programmed until 10:30 PM ET, not 10 PM ET, as their programs that started at 9:30 PM ET were a full hour long on both networks. ABC moved BEWITCHED to 8 PM Saturday nights, up against ALL IN THE FAMILY, in January, after cancelling GETTING TOGETHER. I've read though that ABC still wanted to renew BEWITCHED after killing it on Saturday nights, but the actors & producers were tired of the show by then, which is apparent to almost anyone who has seen a Season 8 episode. ABC did carry THE PAUL LYNDE SHOW and TEMPERATURES RISING from Ashmont Productions (Bill Asher & Elizabeth Montgomery's production company) for 1972-73 and folded them together by moving Paul Lynde to TEMPERATURES RISING for 1973-74. THE SMITH FAMILY producer Don Fedderson got Henry Fonda for his show by giving him the same deal that Fred MacMurray had for MY THREE SONS and Brian Keith had for FAMILY AFFAIR, filming the shows around their leads so the leads would only have to work about 13 weeks/year. Pete Duel killed himself on the last day of 1971, causing ALIAS SMITH AND JONES to replace him w/ announcer Roger Davis for the remaining episodes of the season, after which the show was cancelled.

Well they had so many good TV shows on. Many of these I remember watching and they were always really good they always look forward to seeing now there's nothing really great on TV but violent weird stuff. Women sure different now kind of hard and full of tattoos even older women loaded with tattoos and the boys are looking more feminine by the day
