I'm sorry, I think I confused matters by putting the month of the magazine and then putting the airdate. It made it seems like she aired in March.

Thanks for all these extra details. I didn't know Variety even covered this in detail.

Thanks for the 1970 numbers. Search for Tomorrow was still doing fairly well when CBS killed it. It could have been saved. I guess CBS just wanted it gone. What a waste.

Since these magazines are so old I wasn't sure if it was already common knowledge, but since there isn't a big fan site for some of these shows (as there are for AW/Edge) I thought it was nice to have more details.
