The Peanuts comic strip debuted in 1950, introducing the world to Charlie Brown, Snoopy, and other characters. Created by Charles M. Schulz, the strip first appeared in seven newspapers and became a cultural phenomenon.

Louise Simonson in X-Factor not only managed to handle the original characters and bring them to life with vivid characterization through drama but also introduced her own “New Mutants” within the title in the form of X-Factor’s young protégés, later known as the X-Terminators. #xmen

I'm still super proud of this piece I did back in the day, where I interviewed a bunch of the writers of Mork and Mindy, plus the guy who directed most of the episodes:

Everything You Always Wanted To Know About The Making of Mork and Mindy
For one year, Mork and Mindy was arguably the most successful science fiction TV show ever made. The comedy about an alien and his human best friend

Even-later late night TV. Some shows are best enjoyed at 4am. #SuperForce is one of them. Cheesy #scifi #actionadventure from the #1990s. Definitely a kind of show I can get behind. I love being free at the weekends to watch this kind of stuff.

Late night TV! In later seasons this was known as #PoliceSurgeon. That’s how I first knew it in the late #1970s. But season 1 was called #DoctorSimonLocke and I’m about to watch another episode here. I’ve really been enjoying them. #SamGroom (from #TheTimeTunnel and #Otherworld) is great.

Late night Saturday TV, a season 5 episode of #Hunter.
After #Wiseguy and #Rockford my favourite #StephenJCannell series. These later seasons are new to me. Savouring them.
The best and smartest Action Cop Show. (From s2 onwards.)

Next, an episode of cool late #1980s #privateeye show #SonnySpoon.
I remember it as being funny/clever and, so far, it is holding up just fine.
By the time this show came out, I knew #StephenJCannell was my favourite writer.
He still is.
I wish this series was better known and more popular.

About to start my Saturday night TV viewing with a season 2 episode of #TheATeam . This is the second-last episode with Amy.
After that she gets replaced by a # Cylon!! (In the new opening credits. 😜)
Always been a huge #StephenJCannell fan. ❤️ This show has a lot to with that.

Friday night TV.
A season 1 episode of #TheBoldOnes
4 different high quality shows under one umbrella title. 4 seasons. Never heard of it till a couple of years back. Now it’s one of my favourite series.
Tonight, I’m watching an episode with the lawyers. These are usually *very* clever.

Just home from another 14-hour work day. Time to squeeze in some TV before bed. An episode of #1960s #WWII #actionadventure series #GarrisonsGorillas is in order, I think. #ClassicTV

#StormÉowyn is shaping up to be historic. The entire island of Ireland is now under a red warning 🚨
The storm will undergo explosive cyclogenesis (a bomb cyclone), with pressure dropping rapidly in 24 hours. Expect damaging winds, power outages, flying debris and large waves.

Final TV for me, tonight. An episode of #BarneyMiller - one of the finest TV shows ever made. I’m now in the 5th season and they are on a roll. Superb, thoughtful comedy-drama week after week.

Next, an episode of 1990s #Superboy. My favourite live-action version of #Superman; the one that most resembles a #comicbook. I know people who say they love Superman but they kinda look down on the #comics and anything that resembles them. It’s a weird kind of fandom.
