I liked that show, and I also liked the sheer fact of its existence. My high school friend Leo was a contestant in 1991, as part of the Madison High School team, and I attended that taping at WRC-TV (NBC 4) in D.C. Off to one side of the It's Academic stage was the smaller stage for The McLaughlin Group; yes, I was already enough of a media geek to recognize that.
Thank you for your work, Ms. Altman.
