The Museum of Classic Chicago Television (www.FuzzyMemories.TV) | Norman Lear’s “All That Glitters” (Complete Episode #23, 5/18/1977) 💎 @FuzzyMemoriesTV | Uploaded 10 months ago | Updated 2 hours ago
We interrupt our Christmas-themed videos to bring you a complete episode of a rare Norman Lear series, "All That Glitters", to honor Mr. Lear's passing at the age of 101.
Recorded off of WDCA Channel 20 in Washington, DC, here's a complete episode of the obscure and short-lived (and never re-run) Norman Lear sitcom All That Glitters. (In Chicago, it aired over WFLD Channel 32.)
This nightly series, which lasted all of 65 episodes (from April 18th to July 15th 1977), and showing a world where the script was flipped and women ruled the roost while the men were the sex objects, starred Lois Nettleton, Barbara Baxley, Anita Gillette, Chuck McCann (former New York City children's show host), Wes Parker, Vanessa Brown, Louise Shaffer, David Haskell, Linda Gray (a year before landing the role of Sue Ellen Ewing on the nighttime soap Dallas), Gary Sandy (pre-WKRP in Cincinnati) and Marte Boyle Slout.
Thanks to research by user deepdish73 and confirmed by our head researcher Chris Tufts, we now have the exact airdate and episode number and know that this was Episode #23 out of 65. Wish more would surface but right now these episodes are as rare as hen's teeth! Hopefully they'll release the whole series on streaming or DVD some day.

About The Museum of Classic Chicago Television:
The Museum of Classic Chicago Television's primary mission is the preservation and display of off-air, early home videotape recordings (70s and early 80s, primarily) recorded off of any and all Chicago TV channels; footage which would likely be lost if not sought out and preserved digitally. Even though (mostly) short clips are displayed here, we preserve the entire broadcasts in our archives - the complete programs with breaks (or however much is present on the tape), for historical purposes. For information on how to help in our mission, to donate or lend tapes to be converted to DVD, and to view more of the 4,700+ (and counting) video clips available for viewing in our online archive, please visit us at:
