I have a couple of memories from shortly before this network launched. One was predicting what it would be called, though I don't remember what I had read (or where I read it) that led me to make that guess. Probably I wasn't being particularly clever, but I do vaguely recall enjoying the discovery that my guess was right. My other memory is of seeing an ad for the network on the back cover of TV Guide, which used a Magic Eye image. That ad may have been how I first learned that I was right about the network's name, or... maybe I had previously learned that. I dunno. Anyway, I saved that cover for years, I'm sure, but now I can't find it anymore. I might still have it, or it might have gotten thrown out (though I can't imagine why I would have done that). In any event, when I started this page, I googled "upn magic eye" and found a scanned copy.

(Some of these shows I didn't see on this network, but saw elsewhere in reruns.)
