Is this true? 7:30pm? Saturday? No wonder the show tanked! That sounds very odd to me.

I just checked and it originally aired at 8:30 on Saturdays. I know the networks quit airing shows between 7-8 during the 1971-72 season. Before that, there were sitcoms that aired in that hour.

Yeah, Milwaukee is in the Central Time Zone, so they get prime time shows an hour early.
