For the first Friday drop of It Was a Thing on TV on PTBN Pop
First, Happy 2024! We start the new year with a show that debuted 30 years ago this week. It only ran the typical 13 episodes. Comparisons were made to more successful shows on TV at the time, though at least one of us saw a very raw version of a show which would become a hit two seasons later with one of the show's performers.
Then, timing can and very might have been the reason The Tim Conway Show did not have a longer life, even going from an hour to a half an hour for season 2. As is most anything with Tim Conway, it was entertaining. The rest of the cast was great. Unfortunately, the variety show was a dying breed in 1980.
