8:46 Is the part where he talks about ABC hiring Q5. Basically, he says that their reason for hiring Q5 was because of the network being dead last behind CBS & NBC, and as he also stated: "Third place in 1987 was last place, and somebody's gonna get fired."
I actually wonder if Pee-wee's Playhouse over at CBS stole ABC's thunder, which resulted in ABC trailing behind CBS & NBC for Saturday Morning content, and was the whole reason ABC hired Q5? Don't get me wrong, I'm not justifying this. I also wonder if there were other ways for ABC to catch up to CBS & NBC, besides hiring Q5?
