Man sounds familiar but I cant put my finger on it! The one movie I remember seeing a young Seth green was Cant Buy Me Love and that was later like in 89! Got Em!!

The day we finally got cable I cried.

Our antenna was inside actually so I never had to do that, but i tell ya I remember exactly when we first got cable and it was a dream come true! It was like 1979 or 80 for us and i remember my first movies I watched were movies like Dressed to Kill, Halloween, The Blackhole etc....Classic times! Got Em!!

To my benefit as an only child I had easy access to adultish things and could pretty much watch what i wanted to. I did use to sneak and borrow my aunts adult flicks occasionally! haha! Got Em!!

There was a TV show called "Powerhouse" that was set in Washington DC, and produced in Northern Virginia. It had those after school values to it, anybody remember that show? The show only lasted 16 episodes.

We got cable in 1983, First Choice was the channel movie back then (they call it The Movie Network now) man I was in heaven, 24 hours of movies none stop.

Correction, it was 1985.

It aired during the media hype of "Missing Children". The start of the "Picture on the Milk Carton", don't talk to strangers, blah blah blah propaganda back in the day.

Seth's older sister in the special was played by Maddie Corman, who later played the role of Erick Stoltz's younger sister in the movie "Some Kind of Wonderful". Their mother was played by Lindsey Crouse.

In Canada we had a show produced out of a Toronto local TV channel. The Hilarious House Of Frightenstein. As anyone ever seen that? I still see it on Deja Vue once in a while.
