Hey all! Currently working on a few more Sample Platter and the Nick Knacks episode on Fifteen, but while those are cooking, how about a poll where YOU decide what the next TV Obscura episode is going to be? For this next one, I want to focus on forgotten shows of a specific channel, and I figured I don't give my lovely patrons enough to do around here :). No release date for this video, but it will be out sometime in early summer.

Come on Tattoed Teenage Alien Fighters of Beverly Hills. I didn't remember you were on USA network but the internet said you were so I gotta advocate for you

A video on TBS' Tush is tempting, but I gotta go with USA Network. Give me some Night Flight and some Southwest Championship Wrestling and some Beyond Reality and some Lost on Earth, please please please!

I didn't think anyone else remembered that show, it was a _trip_

USA would be intresting to talk about since it was the "general intrest" channel, so lots of weird stuff wound up there.

i don't remember it, i sought it out as an adult because as a big fan of 'pete & pete' and 'kablam!' i wanted more mcrobb/viscardi stuff. only ever managed to dig up one episode

BET would be kinda neat as it's probably the most intersting in terms of historical contexts (also because you talked about it years ago to clear up confusion)

As a non-American I am both confused and invested

When I was in fifth grade, I would watch reruns of America's Funniest Home Videos on USA Network, and I remember seeing ads for so many random shows that nobody seems to remember. I remember one ad for "The Huntress," with the commercials saying it starred Annette O'Tool and Craig T. Nelson - but the latter only starred in the pilot and not the series, which I just found out now.

I watched a lot of TBS growing up so I'd see spots for a lot of different shows between reruns of Saved By the Bell and The Brady Bunch.

I picked BET only because not many people really talk about the history of BET Network. And I personally think that it would be interesting to see someone like you cover a channel like that.
