Default TVography is soooooooo much better than E! True Hollywood Story

I watched TVography of Laverne and Shirkey and everything that was discussed was about the SHOW not where Penny Marshall went to Elementary School or where Cindy Williams worked at the age of 18-lol Damm I wish I could see a Tvography of Three's Company or the Jeffersons or Good Times. Does anyone know if there was a TVography of these shows below?

Happy Days
Good times
Welcome Back Kotter
Sanford and Son
Three's Company
Jeffersons
Mork and Mindy

"TVography" is good if you want to just learn about the production of shows and their popularity and all of that, but I think ETHS is better, because it takes you in depth into the casting and the pulling together of the show and it gives you mini-biographies of the cast members. It's like a website about the show, but it's actually a TV show.

Of the shows you mentioned, only "Happy Days" has a TVography. Some others I remember are "That Girl," "The Munsters," "Star Trek," "Cheers," "Married with Children," "Home Improvement," "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," "Malcolm in the Middle," and "All My Children."

When I watch ETHS I find out NOTHING about the show. Just where the cast members worked after school at the age of 16-lol

It's on A&E. It's kind of like a spinoff of their "Biography" series. There was one on MTM, that's how I know. hehe

I checked A & E and it is not listed as one of their shows.

Is this some on demand thing?

They don't air it regularly like they air "Biography." Usually, TVography airs on The Biography Channel ocassionally (under one of the names that they use for Biography and TVography reruns, like "Cult TV" or "Divas and Darlings"). It very rarely airs on A&E.
