And this ad is 1983 television in a nutshell. All it needs is Manimal somewhere. Or Mr. Smith.

I think there was also a Knight Rider episode where the bad guys were an expy of the Dukes of Hazzard. Now all we need is a promo by JR Ewing threatening to buy Arnold's and the Eastland Academy so he can drill for oil under them.

JR Ewing is in a pool, and he's attacked by a shark. Who is really MANIMAL. |

Smell the ratings! |

The ironic part is that the star of Just Our Luck, TK Carter, would end up working on a NBC show (Punky Brewster) only a year or so later.

This would have made a great made for tv movie like they used to do mixing castmembers of different shows together |
