Well, that's a bummer! I missed my chance to hear the show. There have been times when I don't get around to listening to the show until Friday and then I listen to it during the afternoon, in place of the WWIS broadcast of American Top 40: The 80s. By the way, where is the link to the "available all week" show (as it is no longer on the AT40 Current Station List thread). Listen – On Demand (Available after the conclusion of this broadcast): ice42.securenetsystems.net/media/WPAC/ondemand/Casey-Kasem.m4a (3 hours avail. for 1 week) I think this is link still works, albeit not for the entire week as I mentionedice42.securenetsystems.net/media/WPAC/ondemand/Mornings.m4a (4 hours avail. for 1 day) Not sure if this link is still valid. I think there's another link out there where the end of the URL is something like "AT4070s.m4a" (or something like that). I think someone replied to a post of mine months ago with the other URL. I'll see if I can hunt it down... Found it... ice42.securenetsystems.net/media/WPAC/ondemand/AT4070s.m4aOnly the Mornings.m4a link is presently up. They did not post the typical 3 hour AT40 link today.

Translation, this show desperately needs a Supersizing which unfortunately we'll probably never hear as Ken mentioned Xmas tunes are a windfall of ca$h for WTOJ. The “serious editing” extended to the end, when, in what I’m sure was Premiere’s doing, nearly half of the #1 song (the second verse and chorus) was cut out. And while not everyone will complain about less “You Light Up My Life”, it arguably feels inappropriate somehow to shorten the top song so much. Did the original Watermark version of 11/12/1977 have "You Light Up My Life" complete or the way it was shortened in this 2023 Premiere AT40: The 70's broadcast?

I'm pretty sure it was complete, as I've heard this show on Sirius XM before and I don't remember it being cut down like this.

is it me or did WPNC start several minutes early? at 1pm at #25 for 1977 show. 9 english acts UPDATE: Ugh, WPNC apparently started 15 min early! nice story on Mark Hamill, who's known as Luke Skywalker on Star Wars. They're filming the sequel, and he's also starring in Eight is Enough sitcom which is from 1977 until 1981. He wouldn't get He was in car accident and his face messed up. The contract was terminated because due to accident. Freddie Payne opt extra story about it, he former had been arrested, he later was a song writing. #1 disco I Feel Love UPDATE: WTOJ is going christmas, ill try other stations.. Was the Eight is Enough pilot with Mark Hamill in it done in 1975? I thought the pilot for Eight is Enough came in the 1976-1977 season before it went to series in Fall 1977.

If I remember correctly,"Eight Is Enough" premiered on ABC in early 1977-Mark Hamill played David Bradford in the pilot but that part eventually went to Grant Goodeve.

Eight Is Enough first had a partial, nine-episode season in spring 1977, followed by four complete seasons from fall 1977 to 1981. The Mark Hamill pilot was probably never shown by ABC as his and another role were recast prior to the show's debut.

You're talking about Diane Hyland who was the first wife of Tom Bradford (Dick Van Patten) on "Eight Is Enough".

You're talking about Diane Hyland who was the first wife of Tom Bradford (Dick Van Patten) on "Eight Is Enough". Actually the characters that were recast prior to the show debuting were, in addition to the role of David Bradford which was originally Hamill's, were Nancy and Tommy which Dianne Kay and Willie Aames ultimately got. Diana Hyland was cast as their mother, Joan Bradford, but died of breast cancer in March 1977 after only completing four episodes. Her character was written out first as being "away" and then having died, and Betty Buckley was cast as Abby, who in fall 1977 married Tom Bradford and thus became stepmother to the eight Bradford kids.

If I remember correctly,"Eight Is Enough" premiered on ABC in early 1977-Mark Hamill played David Bradford in the pilot but that part eventually went to Grant Goodeve. Mark Hamill appeared in the Partridge Family episode called "Old Scrapmouth." It was the episode where Laurie heard music thru her braces. The source of the music was the transistor radio Hamill's character was listening to as he was in the neighborhood.

The source of the music was the transistor radio Hamill's character was listening to as he was in the neighborhood. And after that, he was a regular in the short-lived fall 1974 ABC sitcom "The Texas Wheelers", that also featured a then-equally unknown Gary Busey. Jack Elam was the 'star' of the show (with Busey second-billed and Hamill third-billed) which was about a hardscrabble Texas family. One of two 'bomb' shows that premiered that fall from MTM Productions, which until then had been producing only hits. The other one was "Paul Sand in Friends and Lovers" on CBS. 'Wheelers' wasn't a bad show, as it was quirky and different, but it was up against the CBS movie and NBC's 'Rockford Files' on Friday night, when most of its target audience wasn't home watching TV. Only 13 episodes aired, with half of them not shown until the summer of '75. The late John Prine wrote and sang the theme song.

MTM Productions was famous for the popular sitcoms - one starring Mary Tyler Moore, one with Bob Newhart. And at the same 1974-1975 time Mark Hamill did "The Texas Wheelers" he did a Kodak Camera TV commercial: www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAS7PtfOLPE
