In My Footsteps Podcast Episode 188: 1970s TV Show Fails, Return of 3-D Movies In the 80s, Best Made For TV Movies(3-26-2025)


Some of the worst TV shows of the 70s. The brief return of 3-D movies in the 80s. Some great Made-for-TV movies.

Episode 188 of the podcast celebrates spring with a colorful menagerie of nostalgia in bloom.

It all begins with a look back at the relatively brief and somewhat unspectacular return of 3-D movies in the 1980s. Nostalgia is a powerful emotion and memories of the 1950s 3-D films prompted a comeback. Some films were alright. Some were downright awful. In the end, it was a short return and we will do a deep dive into 3-D.

We go way back in the day to find some of the biggest television show failures of the 1970s. These run the gamut of flops from established names, budgetary disasters, spin-off sadness, and insane ideas. We'll look at all of them.

Made-for-TV movies are a bit of a relic of a bygone era. For we who grew up in the 70s, 80s, and 90s we remember them well. This week's Top 5 will look at some of the best Made for TV movies ever. Did you watch any of these when they first aired?

There is also a brand new This Week In History and Time Capsule centered around the quarantine of the infamous Typhoid Mary.
