For All Time


Today's movie is "For All Time"  According to the IMDb 
"A man is facing middle-age and a failing marriage.He finds a time slip that can take him back to the end of the 18th Century."
It is a made for TV movie starring Mark Hammon, David Lereaney, and Mary McDonell, which first aired October 18, 2000.
It was based on The Twilight Zone episode, " A Stop at Willoughby " written by Rod Serling. The teleplay was by Vivienne Radkoff and it was directed by Steven Schachter. Wish it didn't take 21 years for me to discover this! 
Also, I wish my loving wife could have been with me now so we could share this together.
I have always been a fan of Rod Serling's writing and remember the Twilight Zone episode"A Stop At Willouhby" vividly.
I'm sure you will enjoy this! If you have an hour or so for yourself you will not be disapointed!

Thank You For "Following" & "Watching" YESTERDAY TELEVISION




Hogans Heros was an American Television sitcom set in a German prisoner of war (POW) camp during World War II. 
It ran for six seasons with 168 episodes produced  from September 17, 1965 until April 4, 1971. 
It aired on the CBS network and was the  longest broadcast run for an American television series about WWll.

According to Jonathon Berr Senior Contributer of Forbes on September 18, 2019......

"To say that Hogan's Heroes was politically incorrect would be an understatement. The sitcom was based on the absurd notion that Col. Robert Hogan and his band of saboteurs could operate out of a prisoner of war camp in Germany called Stalag 13. The Nazis in the show such as Commandant Wilhelm Klink and Sergeant Hans Schultz were dimwitted and not evil. Every episode featured at least one threat to send a Nazi to the "Russian Front" or a prisoner to "the cooler." There were plenty of Adolf Hitler jokes."
that the wounds of World War II were still fresh for many people at the time the show aired.

My own father "Roy Martin Badgerow" was himself a POW.
He would bust a gut when he watched. He loved the show as did so many other of his age group. I also think it has a place here in Yesterday Television.

It is also on MeTV Or The Internet Archive 
If you would like to binge watch a few episodes......
