Weekend Viewing: BATTLE OF THE NETWORK STARS

Hearing that poor Willie “Buddy Lembeck” Aames is having a garage sale to stay afloat, I went looking on YouTube to see if they had a clip from the episode of “Battle of the Network Stars” where Aames (then on Eight is Enough) inexplicably slowed down in the middle of the relay race, leading Howard Cosell to comment on how he seemed to be “relaxing” in the middle of the race. Not only did I find that clip, but I found that someone had posted a new batch of clips from Battle of the Network Stars, including Aames’s relay race slowdown. There are also other clips that were posted a year ago by other people.
