  1. She didn't actually talk backwards (a la Zatanna); but she spoke in spoonerisms. Her dad, the king, could never understand her, but Kermit could figure most of them out. The one he couldn't get, until the end, was to break the witch's spell, one had to "bake the hall in the candle of her brain." (Break the ball in the handle of her (the witch's) cane.) My favorite part was Kermit singing "Sweetum" to sleep, before Sweetums would eat him: "Sweetums, lay your ugly head, Down upon your wretched bed. Close your eyes and go to sleep, Rest, you hulking heap. Sweetums is so sweet and cute, Go to sleep, you stupid brute." At which point Sweetums would say "Nighty-night!" and pass out. This happened a few times, before Sweetums caught on: "Sweetums eat froggie, NOW!!!!" I remember seeing this show while visiting my grandmother, who died in 1976. I haven't seen it since. I like the Muppets, fine; I just never watched them. George
  2. Other than Sesame Street and one TV special (Kermit helps a bewitched princess), you are correct. Geroge
  3. "Lost in Space" had three versions, spaced far enough apart, but the first one only went three seasons. George
  4. I wouldn't be surprised if I recognize the shows, but right now I'm drawing a complete blank. George
  5. OK. So the general timing was Show 1 (5 seasons) -- Time passes -- Show 2 (2 seasons (or 1?)) -- Time passes -- Show 3 (1 season (or 2?)) (Although you mention the 2-season show second, it's not necessarily the second chronologically.) Were the other shows spin-offs? Did they share any characters? George
  6. I'm not sure that I ever watched it. I just remembered the notable point that Duke went from Keller to Sullivan. George
  7. I'm confused. Are you surprised that YOU remembered it? You're the only one who answered... Or are you surprised that I remembered it? George
  8. Apparently all Kryptonians speak with a British accent, so Lobo uses a Scottish one... George
  9. Jailhouse Rock Dean Jones The Love Bug George
  10. This title refers to (at least) one theatrical release and one made-for-TV movie. The movie features two female leads, one younger and one older. The actress who played the younger lead in the theatrical release played the older lead in the made-for-TV version. The lead actresses in the theatrical release reprised their roles from a successful Broadway show, which won a Tony for Best Play and another for the older actress as Best Actress. George
  11. Rocky 3 Burgess Meredith Grumpier Old Men George
  12. Krypton returns tomorrow on SyFy. Apparently, not only will we see Zod and Doomsday, this season, but also Lobo (!). George
  13. Teri Hatcher Soapdish Sally Field George
  14. I actually ignored everything except "Shoot him in the face." New one, soon. George
  15. Not old at all. Shazam! George PS. The photo I had inserted in my previous post disappeared, so you may not have any idea what I was talking about. It was "Inigo Montoya's keys to networking success" Hello (Polite greeting) My name is Inigo Montoya (give your name) You killed my father (include a relevant personal connection) Prepare to die (manage expectations)
  16. Judy Adams Jo Jordan Nanette Carter Melinda Howard Ethel "Dynamite" Jackson Marjorie Winfield Josephine McKenna Julie Benton Babe Williams Jan Morrow Kate Robinson Mackay Cathy Timbelake Jennifer Nelson Abby McClure Calamity Jane A well-known performer, she also appeared in many movies as herself. She died recently. George
  17. While we're waiting... "Hello" reminded me of another film. This meme appeared among the photos in a profile on Match.com: It cracked me up, especially the last line! George
  18. I don't remember an episode of The Flash where someone was converted into a puppet, though the show could (loosely) be considered a spin-off of Arrow. George
  19. It's funny. I thought to myself, "Did anyone get the show I posted?" Looking through the thread, it's apparent that my post never went up. (I occasionally hit "Back" rather than "Submit Reply." It's just something I do.) Oh, well. I'll save it for a later date. You say that the two shows have something specific (and nothing else) in common, and then give two things they have in common. George
  20.

George
  21. Sure. The interactions between Sarandon and Costner are definitely chick-flick-y. At least as much as any other sports movie I can think of. George
