I was hoping to find a list of episodes and guests. If I can find the information I will return with it, create myself a login & actually contribute something! (cool) 64.81.136.55 (talk) 07:25, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
My recollection was that The Midnight Special would run music videos and film clips of current performers (not just vintage ones, as the article already notes) when they were unavailable (particularly English acts, for some reason)...the show was one of the few places you could see videos before MTV. If someone could confirm this, it should be mentioned. 165.91.65.143 (talk)RKH
Also, the article should probably note that the show got its title (and its theme song) from the pop song "Midnight Special." If I knew more about the song's history, I'd do it myself. I also don't know whether the show used an available version of the song for its theme or whether it commissioned a studio version. 165.91.65.143 (talk)RKH —Preceding comment was added at 22:28, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
Well, I see one missing from 1975...I KNOW The Captain & Tennille sang "Love Will Keep Us Together" that year...I'm pretty sure the clip is even on YouTube....Just an FYI —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.208.19.100 (talk) 05:21, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
I think limiting guest listing to first appearance only removes the true impact of the Midnight Special. If we do get a long list of guests list should go to a separate page. Bcc cindy (talk) 17:03, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
