But it was not a "week day" syndacation at the time. This program came on at 10:30pm (after bedtime) and premised that this was "Parental Discretion Advised". I really think that the memories of others have really fuzzed up over time. They made such a COLLASSAL deal over this program. Even in those days, I could not grasp the basic tenet of the show other than its "parental advisorY' which would be a true laugh in this era. Over 30 years ago. Amazing!
It was such a great opening - the music, itself a spoof of Hollywood's cheesiest movie soundtracks - and the shout "Mary Hartman! Mary Hartman! - like a neighbor arriving with amazing news....
I used to watch the show in Hong Kong in the mid-seventies and it had me doubled up with laughter. It was unmissable. Louise Lasser - totally hilarious. Is she OK? Does anybody know?
