Re-Run Theater: Saturday Morning Meltdown
For many kids, Saturday morning in the '80s consisted of pouring a big bowl of puffed corn and cow juice, laying two feet away at most from the family's tube TV, jamming your elbows into the carpet, the heels of your hands under your chin, mainlining poorly animated 30-minute toy commercials into your eyeballs. This is your chance to relive all of that, but with beer, pizza, and the Hollywood's big screen replacing that tube TV as the medium (barely) containing the furry majesty of Thundarr the Barbarian, Scooby Doo, and the live-action sci-fi curiosity Ark II (with special guest Jim Backus!)
