It was pub stunt for his show “The Apprentice.” NBC told him to stop or the show was cancelled. He didn’t listen and failed up as they do in this country.

ABC TGIF was special because yeah there was a drop into that second show but not CRAZY much of one.

That’s how TV USED to work.
8pm was your most popular show 8:30 was second popular or the show you wanted to be.

Off base NBC Thursdays was an example. Seinfeld would body but the following show would always get canceled or fall in ratings.

Friends era too.

But that’s my point.

FM was the leader of TGIF and NEVER needed any body to come onto the show.

Everyone else needed FM at one point or another.

Stay inside the scope.

My point is that Step By Step never came to Chicago to visit the Winslow Crew but they sent they best shooter to wherever they were lol

Did any of those other shows you mention name drop each other or was FM the only one?

Making them the kings of ABC’s TGIF

There was Step By Step wasn’t doing well.

They had Urkel “fly” onto that show for an episode or two to help with the ratings.

Yes because your “greater than” needed your “less than” to stay on the air.
