Welcome to a new Wildcard Wednesday — unfortunately! I had hoped a day off would clear things up, but no, I’m afraid I’m officially under the weather. Don’t worry — it’s not serious, and the good news is I’ll be better soon with some fluids and rest. However, this means I regrettably have to delay the start of Kate & Allie another week. My opening essay — the cornerstone for my coverage of this series — is great, but it’s a big one, and I can’t afford to publish it when my faculties aren’t at 100%. So, once nature takes care of itself and I’m back to feeling good again — I am confident that’ll be next week — we’ll return to our regularly scheduled programming. All six Kate & Allie posts are indeed in the hopper (along with a little bit of Roseanne — coming here, at this rate, in March) and I think you’ll enjoy the next few months…
In the meantime, I don’t want you to go empty-handed, so here’s a treat: another episode of The Bob Cummings Show (1955-1959, NBC/CBS/NBC) in honor of the late Dwayne Hickman. This one is called “Chuck At College” — it first aired on February 28, 1957, and was actually a backdoor pilot for a spin-off with his character that never sold. (There are shades of Dobie!) Here’s the link. The password is the email address I use to send out requests. Enjoy!
Come back next week for (hopefully) Kate & Allie and another new Wildcard Wednesday!
