Pop Culture Affidavit Episode 172: It’s on Fox!

90210, The X-Files, The Simpsons, In Living Color, 21 Jump Street, and … Herman’s Head? Join me this episode as I take a trip back into the late 1980s and the first decade of the Fox network. I go into the network’s origins as well as its early programming (some of which were hits and many of which were not), and then will talk about some of my favorite or most-remembered shows in various genres.

It’s the early ’90s.  It’s my adolesence.  And yes … it’s on Fox!
