And here we are with Part 3. Phew, done and done! Get ready for this one because it will be one amazing trip through time, starting with those legendary Little Rascals right up to some guy named Earl who came up with a list. So you'll get a nice timeline of shows during what I think is the golden age of television and it's safe to say we were really lucky to have been alive to experience it. Thank you if you've listened to Part 1 and Part 2, also if you've shared them with others as well. Sorry for the audio quality of some of the later themes, better ones are not easy to find. Enjoy what's left of 2020 as much as you can and let's meet again next year. Bye for now.
