Adam, you may not be familiar, but SNL debuted in 1975 as “NBC’s Saturday Night”, since ABC debuted a comedy/variety show at 8:00 called “Saturday Night Live with Howard Cosell” several weeks prior (which lasted until January 1976). The “L” was added to NBC’s SN in 1977. _ _ |_>|_> Brad Beam- Belle WV |_>|_> http://www.facebook.com/74bmw -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
