The week of December 30th, 1979: For a podcast that covers genre TV from 1970-1990, this is the exact midpoint: the first week of 1980. A week of classic space heroes, mistaken identities, and people in tights wearing bull heads…and maybe a tip-of-the-iceberg sighting of Hollywood’s propensity for recycling. (71:16)
That time when both Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon had action figure lines at the same time in the 1980 JCPenney Christmas catalog. (Wishbookweb.com) (who among us isn’t a Space Case?)
