  1. The initial version of this show set a new record at the time - for the lowest ratings for a pilot. A re-edited version that featured two of the stars' original screen tests at the beginning scored one of the highest test ratings ever. Of the four stars, only two participated in all 58 episodes. One was written out of an episode so he could attend his sister's wedding; another was written out of three episodes; one while he recovered from a tonsillectomy, one when his son Jonathan was born, and one to make a family trip. Frank Zappa and Liberace appeared on separate episodes of the show. What they had in common was a golden sledgehammer. Liberace used it on his piano; Zappa on a car. One of the stars had been "Corky, the Circus Boy" on the show Circus Boy, in the late 50s. One of the stars was on the same Ed Sullivan show which was the first appearance of the Beatles. He had no idea who they were, but wanted to find out how they got the girls to scream like that. (They would, for him, eventually.) George
  2. As no one got it, you're still up, Human. George
  3. I should know this one. But it's not coming to me. George
  4. Well, "Captain Luthor" is really another DC character (the way "Hank Henshaw" was really J'onn J'onzz). If you're like me, you'll figure it out about five minutes before it's revealed. George
  5. Raf might also know. Hint: Tattoo also starred a "Bond Girl." George
  6. You're right. I should have just used one line: "Well, gonna write a little letter, gonna mail it to my local DJ; it's a rockin' little record I want my jockey to play" The first half might have been enough for you to recognize it. I just didn't feel like leaving it to chance. George
  7. Once upon a Time in Hollywood Bruce Dern Tattoo George
  8. Jennifer Connelly IS hot. Loved her in (coincidentally) "The Hot Spot." Still looks good in "Snowpiercer." George
  9. Well, with Raf's MAZE, and WW's Crete, I assume the movie is "Labyrinth" (or some such). Don't know anything about it. George
  10. I'm clearly not going to get it without googling something. Human is MIA, so I assume he has no guess, either. Whenever you're ready, Raf. George
  11. I got it from Jeremiah Johnson, though I first though "Roy Loomis" was his character in "The Natural." That was "Roy Hobbs," though. George
  12. I presume that Raf's capitalization is not by accident. It, however, leads me no closer to the answer. George
  13. White Rabbit A little more than one line, just to make sure you can remember it: "Well, gonna write a little letter Gonna mail it to my local DJ It's a rockin' little record I want my jockey to play" George
  14. I remember that Bowie was in "The Man Who Fell to Earth." Is that it? As to Raf's comment, Zelda, Zorro, Bagger Vance, and Sleepy Hollow are preceded by "Legend of" George
  15. I Am a Rock "Father MacKenzie, writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear" George
  16. I'm pretty sure it's an 80s tune, but I can't think of the title. George
  17. I know that David Bowie changed his name to avoid the Davy Jones confusion, but I can't remember a movie he starred in. I predict a in my future. George
  18. "Roy Loomis" sounds familiar. Jimmy Stewart? George
  19. No. Right time frame, though. Slightly earlier, actually. George
  20. A little obscure for this thread, but Werewolves of London. "Walking through forests of palm tree apartments Scoff at the monkeys who live in their dark tents." George
  21. It was (or, ratherm is) indeed. She starred in "The Legend of Walks Far Woman," "Hannie Caulder," "Myra Breckenridge," and "Fathom." As well, she was Loana in "One Million Years BC," Lilian Lust in "Bedazzled," and was "Jugs" in "Mother, Jugs, and Speed." WW is up. George
