  1. I admit, keeping up can be daunting. In addition to CW's five super-hero shows, Gotham, and Agents of SHIELD, I watch, weekly, NCIS (three versions), Bull, Designated Survivor, MacGiver, Timeless, Supernatural, Riverdale, Big Bang Theory, and Young Sheldon (and the shortly forthcoming Krypton). Add in cable series when they run (Suits, Strike Back, Outlander, Counterpart, the Alienist, and Ash vs. Evil Dead); and its amazing I get ANYTHING else done. I HAVE decided not to watch the current season of Legion, as the first season made no sense to me. George
  2. It was, indeed. I'm guessing that the "quit you" quote was the giveaway. George
  3. Could this be the original "Ocean's Eleven"? George
  4. A little too wild. "Tell you what... the truth is... sometimes I miss you so much I can hardly stand it." "Bottom line is... we're around each other an'... this thing, it grabs hold of us again... at the wrong place... at the wrong time... and we're dead." "I tell ya there... there were these two old guys ranched up together, down home. Earl and Rich. And they was the joke of town, even though they were pretty tough ol' birds. Anyway they... they found Earl dead in an irrigation ditch. Took a tire iron to 'im. Spurred him up, drug him 'round by his dick 'till it pulled off." "You seen this?" "I wasn't... nine years old. My daddy, he made sure me and brother seen it. Hell for all I know, he done the job." "Friend, that's more words than you've spoke in the past two weeks." "Hell, that's the most I've spoke in a year." "Anything interesting up there in heaven?" "I was just sending up a prayer of thanks." "For what?" "For you forgettin' to bring that harmonica. I'm enjoyin' the peace and quiet." "You know, your friend could come inside, have a cup of coffee..." "He's from Texas." "Texans don't drink coffee?" "I wish I knew how to quit you." "We can get together... once in a while, way the hell out in the middle of nowhere, but..." "Once in a while? Every four f---in' years?" "If you can't fix it, Jack, you gotta stand it." "For how long?" "For as long as we can ride it. There ain't no reins on this one." George
  5. That one seems quite familiar, though I can't place a tune with the lyrics. George
  6. DC tips its hat to Marvel in this week's Flash: Cisco to Kaitlin, explaining why Harry SHOULDN'T make a brain-enhancing cap: "Hello! Becomes super-evil genius! Haven't you seen "Spider-Man 2?" (In a similar line, a recent Action Comics has Booster Gold joking calls his droid Skeets "Alfred." When Skeets objects, Booster says, "Would you prefer "Jarvis"? Never mind. That's a whole different timeline!") George
  7. Louie Anderson and Christian Slater are there to throw you off. It seems it worked. Louie played the character in an episode of "Drunk History," and Christian played a young version. One of the other actors received an Oscar for the role. George
  8. John Lithgow Louie Anderson Albert Finney Christian Slater Timothy Spall Robert Hardy Brendan Gleeson Gary Oldman Richard Burton Bob Hoskins George
  9. "Tell you what... the truth is... sometimes I miss you so much I can hardly stand it." "Bottom line is... we're around each other an'... this thing, it grabs hold of us again... at the wrong place... at the wrong time... and we're dead."

  10. One cute line from this past week's "Gotham": Jim Gordon: "The toy maker, Krank, targeted Lee with an antique model plane with a bomb strapped to it!" Ed Nigma: "That is SOOOO Gotham!" George
  11. I thought it was Gary Curtis who did the original, but then was replaced after he left TWI. George
  12. This one sure dropped off the map! WW, care to give a couple more actors (assuming YOU remember what movie this is!)? George
  13. The problem is that neither of us recognizes your second and third movies (without googling, of course). Maybe you could post other quotes from those movies? George
  14. I'm sure WW (and Raf, if he deigns to join us) can link the Supergirl movie. George
  15. John Lithgow Louie Anderson Albert Finney Christian Slater Timothy Spall Robert Hardy George
  16. City Slickers Helen Slater Supergirl George
  17. Name the character: John Lithgow Louie Anderson Albert Finney Christian Slater George
  18. Jim Carrey Sorry it had to get to Fire Marshal Bill. George
  19. Hope Springs Tommy Lee Jones The Fugitive George
  20. Westworld Majel Barrett Star Trek: The Motion Picture George
  21. If I'm not mistaken, these (and the Flash 60s cartoon) were all shorts in the "Superman-Aquaman Hour of Adventure," so I'm not sure I'd count them. Green Lantern did, however, have a cartoon a couple of years ago. Excellent job, though! George
  22. Can you name twelve DC or Marvel superheroes who have or have had their own series, either live-action or animated? Only broadcast (including cable) channels (though, for extra credit, you could name the Netflix/Amazon/Hulu ones, as well). Single heroes, not teams, so no Avengers, Super-Friends, X-Men, etc. The show should have a main hero, though he/she may have other super-heroes on the show. For example, "Arrow" is about Green Arrow, although it also features Black Canary, Mr. Terrific, etc. A super-hero who has had more than one show only counts once. There may very well be more than 12 correct answers. I just came up with that many without a lot of thought. George
