NBA-Team: Gone Fishin': Tax Dollars...hard at work?

Very expensive teams, very limited trade options.. A number of these teams paid for the fortune of being ejected from the NBA playoffs quite early this year, but it's the coach's fault, right? It's not all doom and gloom though because we had some uplifting [NBA] stories with the Knicks and the Thunder this year. Anyway, it's the next batch of our postmortems for the 2023-24 season. Enjoy!  Teams covered:  PHI [2:20], CLE [9:04], NO [13:22], NYK [18:35], PHX [25:25], LAC [29:48], LAL [36:04]; DEN [41:17], OKC [46:30]

It Was a Thing on TV: Episodes 473 & 474 - Red Dwarf USA, pilot 2/Just Our Luck

This week on It Was a Thing on TV we celebrate Greg’s birthday!
 
First, we continue Pilot Month 2024 with a continuation of something we covered last year. We covered the 1992 Red Dwarf pilot for NBC in Episode 375.  A second pilot, of sorts, was done shortly after.  Running a mere 11 minutes long including previews of two episodes, this ambitious endeavor looked like it was shot in a broom closet, and that was before the lackluster quality of the video available online.
Then, it's Greg's 40th birthday and to celebrate the occasion, Greg has chosen the short-lived comedy from 1983 about a guy who buys a lamp which has a genie in it, who causes all sorts of mischief.  Maybe it was Just Our Luck that this show ran for only 13 episodes.
This episode is uncensored.  Listener discretion is advised.

It Was A Thing on TV: Episodes 471 & 472 - Let’s Get Personal (1982)/Fast Friends (1984) (Pilot Month 2024)

This week on It Was a Thing on TV we continue with Pilot Month 2024.
 
First, 1982 was a time of flux at NBC in the daytime.  Game shows were out earlier that year minus Wheel of Fortune, replaced with soaps and sitcom reruns.  NBC had a pilot that was part-game, part-psychological analysis with Let's Get Personal, hosted by a familiar face to NBC game show watchers, but also with an acting troupe of three big names around these parts.  
 
Then, as we have said in the past, Jay Wolpert is the master of the overly complex but unique game show format.  In this show, two people build a team of players with the end goal of winning that captain $10,000 and making some fast friends.  Apparently NBC passed this up for a show that John Davidson predicted would be on for a very long time.
