Battle of the Network Stars was a great show.

Robert Conrad’s intensity was the father of all overly nasty reality game show contestants.

I personally would like to see a rehash of all our favorite Saturday Morning Shows like Wonderama, The Bay City Rollers Saturday Morning show and the one with the two mimes.

It kills me that stuff like “Pink Lady and Jeff” are available on DVD, but “The Wonder Years” is not. Sigh.

What about “Celebrity Circus”, or are we waiting for that to actually air before we call it a failure?

How can we forget the many, many great episodes of “The Nick And Jessica Variety Hour.”

Aren’t you forgetting the most recent mistake — which I did not watch — of “Hidden Talents of the Stars”, canceled after 1 episode? Amusing nontheless, Ben.

Cop Rock wasn’t a variety show, but it was truly the Hindenburg of epic television failures.

Do you mean Swoosie KURTZ in “Mary?”
