50th Anniversary Rewatch Thread

If I talk my parents out of watching Judd for the Defense, I’ll be there

Is this show still on? I thought they replaced it with The Saint.

I am guessing it's not the one with Roger Moore.

Actually it was. It was run on NBC during the summer

Nice! I love these old black and white series!

It was in color at this point...last season.

Trek was on Tuesday at 7:30 for the rerun season, so it would have been up against Mod Squad and Lancer reruns.

 

[Ssosmcin]

Wasn’t Trek’s new slot starting with the first run of Turnabout Intruder? So we didn’t know it yet.

 

[The Old Mixer]

The Saint's been in Trek's old slot for a few weeks at this point, so I assume Trek moved when that started.

I guess this 50th Anniversary Rewatch Thread ends on June 3, 1969...wait no, we have the animated series and reruns for the next 50 years at which point we can start the 100th anniversary thread.

 

[The Old Mixer]

We'll be on hiatus for four years....

Pretty sure they pulled Trek off the air and replaced it with The Saint until Turnabout Intruder, which is when they moved it. Trek stayed in that spot until it ended.

Well, we can do the reruns until the 1969-70 season truly ended it.

Then there are The Syndicated Years...

Well I have a (oh Zod, serious?) question? Are we retiring this thread and starting a 50th Anniversary (TAS) thread? Or putting this one on hiatus and continuing in 2023? And then again in 2029?

 

[johnnybear]

I think the last two series of The Saint were in colour, the second with the lack lustre music!

^ That would be correct. What episodes were shown in America first-run were spread over three seasons.

There's plenty of time to decide that. But you can't let a thread sit for four years and go back to it.

I for one wouldn't be opposed to continuing on with a 46th anniversary TAS rewatch in September if most are so inclined.

Yeah, it's not a neat 50, but it's also not 4 years away....

 

[The Old Mixer]

Well I've got other shows I'm watching in 50th anniversary sync, so I'm willing to play the long game and wait for TAS to come along in its own time.

 

[Ssosmcin]

“Mom!!! Channel 11 is going to start running Star Trek in September! Now I can see all the episodes I missed!”

Ugh. That theme is nowhere near as good as the usual one, especially the up-tempo version as here:

Yeah, I was disappointed with the change of theme music...but trying to be accurate to the 50th anniversary here and now / there and then.
