Have you ever wondered how Henry "Fonzie" Winkler got his first big break in television? What about the first time he ever hard boiled an egg? If you're looking for a show that answers the first question but not the second one, TV Land is airing the premiere episode of My First Time tonight at 10 p.m. EST. The show focuses on TV celebs and the first shows they ever appeared on. In Winkler's case, he played a nerdy guy on Mary Tyler Moore (the show, not the person). Other TV personalities to be covered in future episodes include Ted Danson, Katey Sagal, Jim Belushi, and Mr. T. Sounds like more light and fluffy retrospection from TV Land, and that's fine with me. It's my "sit back and relax" channel, don't you know.My First Time on TV Land tonight

I stopped watching TVland when they stopped airing the BEST shows, Mary Tyler Moore, Dick Van Dyke, Bob Newhart and Taxi at a reasonable hour. With the shows they air now, you can tell they're trying to capture a "younger" audience. Must be a young whipper snapper at the helm now...deciding which shows to air.

I enjoy TV Land, but I think they have too much of some shows and not enough of others...where is Bewitched, Get Smart, That Girl....and how about MORE I Love Lucy?
