It was indeed. Story behind that is that the owner of the studio went on vacation to Bulgaria for a month and failed to put together taped shows for his absence. Cable company called the studio saying "where is tapes?" No tapes. Cable company said "if you don't get tapes over here in time, we cancel show and it goes to the bottom of the list for renewal at some future date.Couldn't produce a show we knew nothing about and had never seen, owner never got back to us with what to do, and so "Bulgaria Today" got replaced by "Bulgarian Surprise Hour" owing to the unnecessary surprise for us and we whipped up a show in two hours and went live with it since there was no time left to tape something and scoot it down to 23rd Street. And so we gave O'Reilly an idea he would use years later ... Now remember ... this was back in the 80's when Ronnie was taunting the Russkies. Needless to say the show was a hit ... not so with Bulgaria though. :) |
