Default Local Rant about the INCOMPLETE STORY told by TV land about Jay Leno and Jimmy Walker

Watching this Unorganized TV Land confidential Tonight and they left a part of the story out about Jay Leno's appearance on Good Times. It started with
jimmy saying-"I was trying to get Jay Leno on the show for the longest and Norman Lear would always tell me-"we will see". Then Norman Lear came to me and said-"Do u want your friend to be on the show this week? Then Bernadette Stanis added-"Yeah Jimmy and Jay were very close back then.

And that was THE END of the story EVERYONE-lol No more discussion on the Topic, where was JAY LENO"S INTERVIEW??????????????????????? He could have talked about his friendship with jimmy and his appearance on Good Times. Why is it that TV Land can never do anything right? Damm, why would they not have the GUEST be interviewed since it was the TV LAND Confidential discussing "GUEST STARS". So TV LAND couldn't get Jay Leno to talk about Good Times?? Jay Leno's apearance on Good Times is still a UNTOLD STORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! because we still only have HALF of the STORY

Yeah I was very interested in hearing Jay Leno speak about his appearance on the show and his friendship with Jimmie but we never saw that. So why even have his appearance mentioned on T Land Confidential if the Guest star is not being interviwed like the Guests for the other shows were,

What I hate is when they have guest stars talking abt shows that they have no business talking abt.

It's like a meatloaf...a little bit of this and a little bit of that. They just throw together a 22 min. show and think it is great.

I have noticed the same thing about TV Land Confidential. A lot of hype before the show and not a lot of substance ON the show.

Maybe that's why they call it "Confidential". It STAYS confidential.

Leno was on the "JJ has VD scare" episode. Leno was in the waiting room of the clinic. I think he had one or two lines.

Are Leno and Walker still friends these days? I know Walker is very good friends with Letterman, who did some writing for Good Times.

Good rant Solomon, lol. TV bLand is a joke, and not a funny one either.
