The shows span about five decades. George

I didn't say I was quitting... And, yeah, it's a lot easier to find a still than to capture from a video. George

I think Stargirl is going to be better than I first thought. Let's just say that she won't be going it alone. George

Four shows with a basic theme. Guess one to win the round. A reformed second-story man acts as a bodyguard, meeting his clients at his neighbor's café. The world's greatest cat burglar, caught, steals stuff for the government in return for a pardon. A pardoned convict becomes a private detective. A brilliant forger, caught, works with the FBI in exchange for a pardon. George

It's okay, but it's not my favorite game. Probably because any scene I'd recognize would be an easy one. I always liked the Pictionary threads, but they died a slow death. Go ahead and post, if you wish. George

It's the last season. Colson is now an android with his memories downloaded into it. The team is traveling through time, trying to stop the Chronicons (sp?). Sort of an "Agent Carter" crossover this last episode. George

So, is anyone else watching Stargirl, yet? Also, SHIELD is actually quite entertaining this season! George

I've never actually seen "Casablanca," but I'm pretty sure that Sam is getting ready to "Play it." (IIRC, the phrase, "Play it again, Sam" never actually occurs in the movie.) George

EVERYTHING is easier to fix during Crisis. George

Your turn, WW. George

Dynasty? John Forsythe was "in" every episode of "Charlie's Angels," but was never seen. (He was, of course, seen in "Bachelor Father." Linda Evans joked that she played a friend of Kelly (Forsythe's niece on the show) with a big crush on him, and then wound up "wed to him" on Dynasty 20 years later.) George

Due to a login hitch, it took me quite a while, but I can finally get into HBO Max. I'm watching the Teen Titans cartoon "The Judas Contract." George

Well, Hartley Sawyer has been fired from The Flash for (as every outlet refers to them) "racist, misogynist tweets" from several years ago. So, do they "Dick York/Dick Sargent" Ralph Dibny (you know, he kind of looks like Darrin Stevens!)? Do they just eliminate the character? Do they get Mehcahd Brooks to come over and be Jimmy Olsen/Elastic Lad? Maybe bring in a Plastic Man? FWIW, when thinking about casting a Justice League movie years ago, my Plastic Man would have been Jim Carrey. Of course, his salary would be more than the budget for the whole show (Flash, that is). George

In the US, "lummox" would call to mind clumsiness or stupidity, whereas "lug" would be an affectionate term. George

Dallas? Larry Hagman was on it, as well as I Dream of Jeannie, though he didn't look THAT different. George

Incidentally, in American slang, a "lug" is a large but gentle man: "Come here, you big lug!" Apparently, it's also an acronym for "lesbian until graduation." Without dragging this thread too far afield ( I hope), I just find it interesting that the Urban Dictionary mentions this term specifically in reference to Mount Holyoke College, and also to Smith and Wellesley Colleges, all in the Boston area. When I was at MIT in the early 70s, none of those schools were known as bastions of lesbianism. In fact, it was the understanding that Smith and Holyoke women were in college to get the "Mrs" degree. (A lot of them showed up at parties at my fraternity, and were quite obviously heterosexual.) Wellesley women were more serious about their studies. It was to MIT what Radcliffe was to Harvard.

In American English, a "lug" is the nut that holds the wheel on the wheel bolts. Most cars come with a lug wrench which looks like this: The socket fits the lug of the particular car, and the pointy end can be used to pry off the hub cap. (Assuming the car has one. They were far more common in the past). Unfortunately, the angle doesn't allow you to get much leverage, and the tool tends to slip off the lug. I much prefer this type: The three sockets are different sizes, so one should fit your lugs. You still have the hubcap remover. The best part, though, is that you can come straight at the lug, so there's no slipping; and you can use both hands to turn the nut. George

Apparently, CW is not taking the obvious way out of Ruby Rose's departure from Batwoman, i.e., recasting Kate Kane. Instead, they're going with a whole new Batwoman. This strikes me as insanely dumb. It makes the whole first season (including the crossover) meaningless. The new Batwoman won't be Alice/Beth's sister or Commander Kane's daughter, and presumably won't be the "Paragon of Courage." About the only thing she WILL be is lesbian (although there would be no reason for a non-Kate Kane Batwoman to BE lesbian). George

That IS what happened. Worf even had the sort of embarrassed look that Bluto did. It was priceless. Incidentally, I'd never heard of Phil Farrand. From Wikipedia: "Phil Farrand is an American computer programmer and consultant, webmaster and author. He is known for his Nitpicker's Guides, in which he nitpicks plot holes and continuity errors in the various Star Trek television programs and movies, and for the creation of Nitcentral, a website devoted to the same activity." You're up. George

This is a bit blurry. I couldn't find a high-res copy: As well as the movie, do you know the Star Trek homage? George

I know. George

Having moved from Illinois to Texas, years ago, I've found that a lot of things are referred to differently, even within the US. For example. North: lug wrench South: tire tool (or tire iron) North: forklift South: tow motor North: access road South: feeder George

Well, you said you were running out of clues. I've run out of guesses. George
