I don't believe any episodes from this week were out in the trading circuit otherwise, though. So it was nice to see another bit of the series turn up even though not an episode.
Not sure if we've gotten to that episode yet (I missed the Monday airing). All I remember is it's when Jon takes the mic and is shouting "It's mine, it's mine!"

I know this is an extremely silly question, but was the above the episode seen last night by any chance?
Mr. Matté:
The ep that aired last night (Wednesday) was a new batch of celebs including David Lander (who did the walk across the stage), Nedra, and Erin Moran.

Skipped ep then?
(EDIT: Yep. Does the episode seen this past Monday match up with anything I described from the elements I remembered having?)
This, then, is a week which did have a few circulating episodes previously. I called it the Unofficial Laverne and Shirley/Happy Days week as a few people from each show were on the panel. Though with the talent on the panel, Salute to 80s Sitcoms Aimed At Teens would be more like it. Includes a $30K loss.

And I am wrong, as Teresa Ganzel is also being introduced as "from the Duck Factory."

Is there any other show that attracted so many stars of failed series? Or is that just due to the state of NBC at that time?
--- End quote ---
Mostly the latter. NBC clearly pushed HARD to have its own "stars" represented on this show, and some shows were much less successful than others, especially on NBC around that time. They were just beginning to turn a corner after the late-seventies early-eighties fiascos, but there was still plenty of dreck.

And that of course accounts for all the endless puffery at the beginning of the run for "Mister Smith" and the constant booking of Leonard Frey.
