It Should've Been on a Saturday: Kids Say The Darndest Things (1998)

As we've talked about, Kids Say The Darndest Things was originally a segment of Art Linkletter's House Party. Nearly 30 years after House Party ended, CBS spun off Kids Say into a primetime series that ran between 1998-2000, with Bill Cosby as host, and Linkletter as an executive producer and on screen contributor. Reruns would later air on Nickelodeon in an early evening berth before Nick ceded the night to Nick at Nite.

We can also assume the late country singer Tammy Wynette co-opted the phrase as the title of one of her songs back in the 60's or 70's.

Edit, 7/25/21: Had to change the video. This snippet comes from a CBS print of a November 1998 episode from Boston:

Today, as we all know, Cosby's career has been destroyed by a conviction for sexual misconduct, a carefully cultivated image created with scads of Jell-O commercials, plus The Cosby Show, Fat Albert & The Cosby Kids, and a stint on the original Electric Company had been irrevocably shattered. You begin to wonder what happened to the young people whose lives Cosby had touched over the course of four decades......
