It Was a Thing on TV Tripleheader: Episode 191, Minisode 12 & Episode 192 - 1981 Collegiate Cheerleading Championship/Jason Alexander McDLT Commercial/Domestic Life

Today on It Was a Thing on TV we serve these topics like the McDLT. Keep the hot side hot and the cool side cool.

 

First, last year, we gave you the 3rd Annual Collegiate Cheerleading Championship with Magic Johnson, Jayne Kennedy, Catherine Bach, and Gallagher.  We're back with the championships from a year later with John Davidson, Marilyn Michaels, Mary Ann Mobley, Andy Gibb, and Victoria Principal.

 

Next, before Jason Alexander was George Constanza, he was in a popular commercial for the McDLT, a McDonald's sandwich from the 80s.  Greg and Chico talk about the ad, future offerings from McDonald's, a Filipino commercial for one of those sandwiches, and a very special ending with another McDLT commercial.

 

Finally, a short-run show from 1984, Domestic Life involved a number of big stars including Steve Martin, Tom Hanks, and Martin Mull.  Some members of the media knew it was good, but it was just too late.  And it had Bob Ridgely!
