So one of the first movies I remember watching on TV is 'Goin Coconuts' with Donny & Marie Osmond. There was this new phenomena called "cable television" sweeping the nation and it had movies and shows on 20 hours a day(!). Correct, not 24 hours, only 20 since the other four hours were needed for maintenance of some kind. The BofA website has since adopted this annoying policy.
Anyway, it was about the twins going to Hawaii for a concert, Marie obtaining a priceless necklace and a band of bumbling bad guys chasing after them. A movie shot in Hawaii wouldn't suck this bad again til 'North Shore' in 1987.
Don't miss the clip at 1:27. Do you recognize that building in the background? That's right, Oceania Floating Chinese Restaurant. Now that's old school.
