Just Like TV The Way It Used To Be--

--It needs a good swift kick!

For some reason the Knoxville RTN affiliate's programming doesn't match what they have listed. And the signal is somewhat wonky (the sound volume is way down).

For those of you in areas that don't have RTN yet, I'll tell you about it: they have a library built around genre TV of the Sixties, Seventies and Eighties. All those "hamburger" shows by Cannell, Belisarius and/or Larson. Western shows on Saturday noonish. The original Battlestar Galactica and the Gil Gerard Buck Rogers on Saturday night. They were supposed to be running the talk program Unreliable Sources the last hour, but instead they had an episode of the Rod Serling horror program Night Gallery.

RTN's web presense is also somewhat wonky, with www.rtnville.com unavailable and www.myretrotv.com still under construction. This is no way to run a network even if you do have Mr. T on your payroll. I pity the fools. :P

mystery, horror, knoxville, the 1980s, tv, dysfunction, glitches, the 1970s
