This week on It Was a Thing on TV we talk about the Presidency and the episode that you picked for us to cover!
First, with the election season we felt it was appropriate to visit this relevant dramedy turned comedy with George C. Scott from FOX's early days.
Then, in October, we asked you to vote on which of three candidates you wanted us to cover as our Election Day episode. Your winner was Fish, the spin-off of Barney Miller about Phil Fish's home life with his wife and five precocious scamps.

This week on It Was a Thing on TV we talk SNL, baseball, strange stuff in a small Indiana town and ….. Tony Schiavone?!?!
First, in 1986, NBC expected to air Saturday Night Live in its usual post-news time slot. The New York Mets had other plans, forcing SNL's hand to record that night's show in the dead of night, and causing the episode to air weeks later.
Then, Our final Halloween episode for this year is about a show which could be considered Twin Peaks for kids. Originally, it lasted a season but found life after its demise on several networks, including a follow-up series and a series of young adult books. Prepare yourself for the bizarre world of Eerie, Indiana.
Finally, wrestling fans tuned into the WCW Halloween Havoc 1993 Pay-Per-View expecting a night of exciting wrestling and what happened in the first four minutes was so weird that it's been on Greg's mind for the last 29 years.
Find out if a bunch of trick-or-treaters from Atlanta can be scared by Tony Schiavone.
