Yet Another Event in Television History

The makers of The Greatest Event In Television History are nothing if not frank. The first 3 Greatest Events In Television History were failures, they say. But even so, they're back with a fourth attempt at the Greatest Event in Television History.

This time, the goal is to meticulously recreate the opening to the hit TV show "Bosom Buddies". This has special significance for me because I loved the show when I was a kid. The part in this video with Billy Joel is priceless.

The Tonight Show - Yolanda Adams

Mix Tape Month continues with performance #2: Yolanda Adams.

POW!

The Tonight Show - Christopher Cross

Christopher Cross and The Roots perform "Sailing" on the Tonight Show...

Continue? - Super Tennis

In honor of Summer, the Continue? guys play Super Tennis for Super Nintendo. The game is fraught with sexual innuendo and Lexus commercials.


And as a special youtube Summer bonus.... It's Super Tennis! Best Summer Ever. Nailed it.

Tonight Show - Don Rickles

The man, the myth, the legend, Don Rickles on the Tonight Show. The whole interview is funny but this is what's available on youtube.

Tonight Show - Mix Tape Month

What was called the "Yacht Rock Party" has now perhaps been changed into Mix Tape Month. Instead of limiting themselves to the Yacht Rock genre, they're going to have "one of Jimmy's favorite [musical] guests" on to perform. And instead of one day, it's once every week for a month.

The lineup is:

Thursday - Christopher Cross performs "Sailing".
TBA - Yolanda Adams performs "Victory".
TBA - The Doobie Brothers reunite with Michael McDonald

That's it. Are there three weeks in a month? I think the quality control may be slipping. But that aside, I like the choices. I mean, all I need is "Sailing" anyway.
