In 1968, Stanley Kubrickʹs “2001: A Space Odyssey”, in 70mm wide-screen and starring Keir Dullea, premiered at the Uptown theater a year before men walked on the moon.

The audience titters, then laughs, then roars. The orchestra strikes up, assuming that the show will quickly break for a commercial, although, by sheer luck, at home the man was seen only from the waist up. “Well, ladies and gentlemen, that was almost bound to happen,” says Niven, referring to the fad of streaking then popping up everywhere. “But isnʹt it fascinating,” he continues, ad-libbing, “to think that probably the only laugh that man will ever get in his life is by stripping off and showing his shortcomings.”

In 1978, J.R. Ewing and the clan arrived at Southfork for the first time this night, when “Dallas” was seen on CBS-TV. It was supposed to be a five-week miniseries, but it lasted 13 more years after the brief run turned into a gusher in the ratings! Larry Hagman, formerly of “I Dream of Jeannie” fame, starred as J.R. (John Ross) Ewing. The show originally was broadcast on Sunday night, then moved to Saturday and later, Friday nights. The show became an enormously popular hit (thanks also in part to the beautiful women on the show) and was the talk of many people around the water cooler each Monday morning. The stunts over the years would include the famous cliffhanger “Who Shot J.R.” and the whole-season-was-a-dream solution the make Bobby Ewing alive again.

In 1993, Shelley Long returns to “Good Advice” as a marriage counselor. Not only is the series debut delayed by its starʹs health problems and enormous tinkering with concept and characters, the show is later bogged down when Long is sideswiped by a case of the flu.
