album coverAmericanLife TV is a "network for baby boomers" showing up on the new channel alignment for Time Warner Cable. Its selling point is old series' like "The Honeymooners,” “The Man From U.N.C.L.E.” and “77 Sunset Strip” — a major pop culture phenomenon in its day, spinning off records, comic books and a board game. Says an IMDB.com commenter: "77 SUNSET STRIP was so cool that the breeze from the show could air condition your living room every Friday night from 1958--1964. This series had it all: two cool private detectives, gumshoe intrigue against the backdrop of Hollywood environs, a bee-bop-speaking parking lot attendant who became an overnight teen sensation, and not to be forgotten---one of the sexiest musical scores ever." It will show Monday nights at 9 and midnight.
