I think your reading too much into it. It was a ONE DAY MARATHON airing a series of sitcoms (Taxi, Mork and Mindy, Odd Couple, Get Smart, etc.) that, in some cases, I hadn't seen in years. I would much rather watch several classic episodes of Taxi or the Odd Couple that I hadn't seen in several years than an episode of Law and Order:SVU, Psych or Burn Notice that was just shown at least three times on USA just a week earlier.
