It Was a Thing on TV: Episodes 437, 438 & 439 - Man from Atlantis/Brisco County Jr./Letterman Holiday Film Festival

This week on It Was a Thing on TV
 
First, our mini-tribute to the new Aquaman cinematic release comes to an end with this series which was marine-adjacent about the last survivor from an underwater civilization.  Four TV movies were made, with decent enough ratings to merit a series, one that lasted an additional 13 entries.
 
Then, in our annual episode where you pick the topic, we gave you 3 shows from which to choose.  The show with the most votes was this one, a one-season classic about an Old West bounty hunter avenging his father's death, with science fiction and steampunk elements.
 
Finally, in 1985 and 1986, David Letterman presented two special episodes of Late Night with David Letterman around the holiday season highlighting short films by various celebrities. We analyze these short films and offer our commentary in this holiday episode of It Was a Thing on TV.
 
Stay tuned to the end of the third episode where Greg makes an announcement regarding future drops right here on PTBN POP.
