Camp Songs, Thorn Birds and CHiPs Roller Disco: A Sneak Peek at Season 16

Tune in today as the topics of our Season 16 episodes are REVEALED! Consider this your TV Guide preview issue for the new season of The Pop Culture Preservation Society, full of pithy promos, clever hooks, and even a Season 16 theme song. Before the big reveal, Carolyn warms up the crowd with a walk through an actual TV Guide Preview Issue from 1979 (does anyone else remember Out of the Blue starring Olivia Barash? Or is it just Kristin?). The 1979 fall line-up was full of new shows and big changes -- the Hardy Boys closed up shop, the Ropers moved, and Laura Ingalls got rid of her braids -- and we hope the new season of the PCPS will deliver just as much drama and intrigue. Lace up your roller skates, it's time to get this season started!
