OK, it might've been slow moving (I don't know; his Feb. 20, 1969, special is not on YouTube, though others are). But the decision to have Andy Griffith--especially Andy Griffith--recite James Weldon Johnson's "The Creation" a couple of months after Apollo 8 was just freaking brilliant ...
Also, I'm already getting excited about the 1969-70 TV season.
Also on TV this night was another very good Dragnet with a terrific primer on data centers and various functions such as data validation/reconciliation, as well as some unusually dismissive and suspicious silent glances between Friday and Gannon. But, again, I defer additional Dragnet commentary to (fantastic) Everyone Nods: The Dragnet Style Files.
