Eerie, Indiana rewatch 2015

Hi guys,

So I'm scheduling the posts for the rewatch and I know Broken Record is at the end of the last disc, but for me it seems like it clearly belongs in the pre-Dash, pre-John Astin part of the show, and that Reality Takes a Holiday is the show's finale. So I'm gonna schedule it to be the thirteenth episode we rewatch, and then follow it with the Hole in the Head gang as number fourteen.

Obviously if anyone has especially strong feelings about this, you are absolutely entitled to skip over it and/or rewatch Hole in the Head Gang in week thirteen, and that will still be awesome because it will still be Eerie. I'm just laying it out there now in case it causes confusion hen Broken Record pops up on October 24th and peeps were expecting Grungy Bill and haunted toasters.

I have so much to say for Broken Record (I tried to restrain myself on last week's thread).
Also, I still have to catch up with this week. I totally watched the wrong episode (ATM).
Also, OCTOBER 24TH, AWWW YES! That's my birthday!

And hell yeah, Saturday Halloween and Hocus Pocus! That should be watched after that day's episode! Double feature!

This is slightly tangential, but I've seen mention several times that Broken Record didn't air during the original NBC run. But when I saw it as a teenager during the Fox Kids run, I swear as truth that I had very clear memories of having seen the episode before. I definitely remembered the Pitbull Surfers, and the dad playing the record backwards. So IDK how that happened, unless I am psychic or the internet lies.
