This week on It Was a Thing on TV we talk about how this is the drop that gets results!
First in Minisode 28, one of the enshrinees this year’s Baseball HoF inductions was slugger Fred McGriff. While most people know him as a basher for a number of MLB teams, others remember him from appearing in frequently aired ads for baseball skill videos. We look back at the videos, and discover something amazing about those ads about a quarter century later.
Then in Episode 396, in 1979, Angie was bound for great success. Then ABC meddled with the schedule a number of times and despite being a top 5 show the season before, Angie found its way to cancellation a year later.

It's a special It Was a Thing on TV Live Show! This epic cinematic masterpiece from Dick Van Dyke's grandson comes from the same people who brought you those straight-to-video mockbusters! Titanic II!
Originally released by The Asylum back in 2010, Titanic II is set in the far-off future of 2012! A wealthy billionaire builds his own version of the Titanic (with blackjack and hookers!) but little do they know that history is about to repeat itself!
Can Brooke Burns and Bruce Davison save Greg and Chico from boredom in this movie? Just remember never to let go!
