Route 66 - Nick Knacks at Nite #1
🕑 Added 2024-12-29 23:00:40 +0000 UTCWe kick off Nick Knacks at Nite with Route 66, a traveling anthology-esque show about two listless youths driving across America in a Chevrolet Corvette. We take a look at the show's strengths and weaknesses, its intense production, the challenges it put on its star George Maharis, and why it was such a perfect pick for Nick at Nite's starting lineup in 1985.

Oh yay, Smothers Bros made it under the wire! Fun Fact: Their mom, Ruth Smothers, worked as an administrative assistant at my family's now defunct materials handling company, WT Billard, Inc. My dad would know more on the matter, so I'd be happy to consult w/ him on any further info he might have.

I was having an awful day of flight disruptions, and this just made it better. I started watching Route 66 out of curiosity when you did your Nick at Nite episode, and I've been so eager to see it get expanded!
