Before we all knew Nancy McKeon, Dee Wallace, Linda Dano, and Meeno Peluce’s names, they were all guest stars on an episode of Starsky and Hutch together. How nice was it is to see the 11-year-old The Facts of Life star, the 28-year-old Scream Queen, the 34-year-old Soap actress, and the 7-year-old Voyagers actor in one of their first roles back in 1977.
McKeon shared this story about from the set, “…my first job in California 1977! ‘Starsky and Hutch’… I was 11😋! What I remember most was watching Paul Michael Glaser play his guitar outside his trailer… I believe it was an amazing Jim Croce tune💜😀#memories #thepowerofmusic 🎶#alifetimeago.”
While The CW, CBS, and Fox announced their schedule for 2020-2021, ABC is not ready to do that as they wait to see what our futures look like after we get through the coronavirus pandemic. Instead of telling us what shows will air when, they are letting us know what shows they will be when they can tell us that.
They already picked up The Good Doctor, Grey’s Anatomy, Station 19, America’s Funniest Videos, The Bachelorette, and American Idol for another season, and those shows will be joined by 13 others: American Housewife, The Bachelor, black-ish, The Conners, Dancing with the Stars, The Goldbergs, A Million Little Things, mixed-ish, The Rookie, Shark Tank, Stumptown, 20/20 and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.
What is missing? The Goldberg’s spinoff Schooled (hopefully Freeform will save it), the delightful Single Parents (this one really pisses me off), Bless This Mess that wasn’t blessed, and the painfully boring Emergence.
What will replace them? Big Sky, Call Your Mother, and the previously announced Supermarket Sweep hosted by Leslie Jones.

Tonight at 8p on NBC, Lisa Kudrow, Courteney Cox, Adam Scott, and Ben Stiller go to Jack Black’s house for Red Nose Day, and it might be the last time we ever see them. That is because they are taking part in the special Celebrity Escape Room.
The four of them will have to work together to solves ten puzzles in three different rooms. If they do that, then not only will they raise a lot of money to help children affected by COVID-19, they will also escape Jack Black and his billion-dollar ponytail.
The first room they enter is a bedroom with a lot of artifacts from the ’80s and their pasts. Will they be able to find out which items will help to unlock the door that will take them to their next adventure?
That place is a high school hallway. This location is not as easy as the first room. Things get even worse for Cox, who finds herself trapped in a room within the room, and the boys don’t do anything to free her. Eventually, Black guides them on the way that frees them all and takes them to the prom.
That’s right. It is time for them to go to biggest school dance of their lifetime. Once they are there, they will take part in a lifesize game of Simon that is harder to play then they thought.
Will this game ever end for them? Only when the fat lady sings. Since there are no fat ladies, the four of them will have to do a song together. Sadly, for Kudrow, she is not familiar with the popular tune.
Does that mean they will be stuck there forever like so many celebrities before them? You just have to tune in to find out. You also get to learn why we haven’t seen certain actors in a long time. They are being held captive in Black’s game.
Celebrity Escape Room is so much fun to watch; I hope that NBC turns this one-episode special into a series. I would love to see Black ask his Jumanji co-stars The Rock and Kevin Hart to do it. You know only one will survive if he does…
