Ahh the halcyon days of the Event Miniseries.

I recall when one of the networks aired their Winds of War miniseries, Steve Martin, on another network, had The Winds of Whoopee.

I’d like to have seen Winds of Whoopee, had to be better than Winds of War, which I distinctly remember boring me to tears.

I remember that, especially the line about being liberated from Allie McGraw’s acting.

The Dinosaurs sitcom had its own parody called Nuts To War. It was better than the real miniseries.
