Legendary NFL quarterback Joe Namath's last stop in his illustrious career brought him to Los Angeles, with the Rams in 1977.  The next year, one of his first post-retirement gigs was on The Waverly Wonders, which was very reminiscent of a popular show on another network at the time.  Just over a month later, the show got cancelled.  Its replacement, however, would last over 7 years.

Episode 405--The Waverly Wonders

Partially an oral history of obscure TV shows, partially an oral version of MST3K, and partially a thorough episode guide, It Was a Thing on TV is an anthology podcast about obscure, forgotten, and odd TV shows, commercials, televised events, and almost anyone and anything else that was on television.  For the most part, the subjects we cover are from the United States and Canada.  We’re just three guys with a love for television.
