In the forty-second episode of Making Mt. Rushmore, host/moderator Steve Riddle welcomes Keith Langston, Scott Grimes & “Cowboy” Roger Morrissette to discuss which NFL #1 Overall Draft Picks deserve a place on their respective lists. Is Peyton Manning (1998) a no-brainer? What about John Elway (1983)? Does Terry Bradshaw (1970) grab a spot? Does Bruce Smith (1985) or Bo Jackson (1986) deserve a place? After that, they discuss which NFL #1 Overall Draft Pick Busts will be part of that grouping. Can you argue that Ryan Leaf (1998) shouldn’t get a spot? Will JaMarcus Russell (2007) be included? Is Brian Bosworth (1987) in the conversation? What about Tony Mandarich (1989) & Reggie Bush (2006)?

This week on It Was a Thing on TV we’re pushing daisies and crabs in outer space.
First, Star Trek: Voyager was a success for UPN. So was Moesha. The powers that be thought, "Why not combine the two? It'll be a hit!" Spoiler: It wasn't. It did give us The Space Hoopty, for what it's worth.
Then, for our Easter 2023 episode, we're not talking about cutesy-wootsy bunnies this year?! We're talking about someone who can revive the dead. Pushing Daisies was a critical darling but it couldn't come back from a fate worse than the death of a scripted show in 2008.
Finally, in 1984, the San Francisco Giants needed something to get fans' attention away from their poor play on the field. Enter the first ever anti-mascot a crustacean mascot which drew heat from not only the fans, but the Giants and the opposing teams as well. It's all immortalized in one of the best baseball commercials ever.
