As someone pointed out, it may have really started on Sundays, but it ran
on Thursdays during the First Season, and for many, many seasons after.
 
I remember getting together on a Thursday night with some friends from
college, including a French exchange student, to watch "Crepes of Wrath."
I also remember rushing home from a night class to watch a new episode only
to find that my VCR had failed to record it.  Happened more than once, and
really stuck in my craw!
 
To be honest, we could have watched "Crepes..." on a different weeknight,
but it certainly wasn't a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday.  The VCR mishaps were
on Thursdays for sure as that is the day of the week I had a night class.
 
I can't remember when they moved to Sundays.  It has been many, many
seasons on Sundays, too, no doubt!  I am wondering if NBC's "Must See
Thursday" lineup of the mid-1990's isn't what moved it to Sundays.
 
I am actually guessing they picked Thursdays because it is the day of the
week that sounds the most like Tuesday.  ;-)
