He seems like an odd choice for Midnight Special. I wonder if he did standup between sets.

"Deuce," Kiss

"Black Diamond," Kiss

I'm not familiar with either of these, but "Black Diamond" is definitely the better of the two. Not that either is great.

I caught that they were playing Wild Kingdom, but didn't know about Grizzly Adams. I know that they recently added Adventures of Superman in Kolchak's old slot; and moved up the weeknight Twilight Zone, putting Dragnet in its old slot.

I didn't notice Superman, but I had been wondering how long they could keep running the same twenty episodes of Kolchak.

That's assuming that he wasn't just part of a mass burial or something.

It's certainly possible, but he'd also be very recognizable to almost anybody likely to find his body. Plus, it would be a neat little bit for a time travel story for Kirk to find him and have him reburied in the family plot or something. Kind of outside the wheelhouse of what Time Tunnel does, though.

Except that they normally use those tubes for regeneration. Here the tank may have been used in emulation of the abiogenesis experiments.

True, this could have been the first time this degeneration issue came up.
