Jane Seymour and Karen Allen were both in the iteration of East of Eden that aired (part 2) on this date. Filming had been completed before Raiders of the Lost Ark (Karen Allen) and Somewhere in Time (Jane Seymour) hit theaters. The increased star power of these actresses was a boon to the ratings.

Surprised Plan 9 From Outer Space aired on a weeknight.
 
2:05 a.m., though. Whatever audience it attracted probably consisted of seriously stoned Boston college and university students.

Also surprised it aired on a major station, even if it were in overnights. The Boston area has an insane amount of colleges and universities.
