  1. Not really. It has its moments, but the characters just have no appeal. I'm still watching it, but I'd be surprised if it gets renewed. George
  2. OK. So you don't want Mon-el to be Lar Gand, for some reason. You make his DAD Lar Gand? George Yes, I realize that this may be a (very minor) spoiler to some. At least I haven't talked about Arrow's "big reveal."
  3. It's been around here a BIT longer (1.5 mo. maybe), but I take your point. George
  4. I didn't watch Buffy enough to remember. George
  5. Indeed. A thoroughly enjoyable film. George
  6. Musical episodes are one of the signs of shark-jumping. I was going to add a link to jumptheshark.com, but apparently, it's "boned the fish": http://bonethefish.com/whathappenedtoJTS/JumptheShark.php George
  7. "My name's Richard Grayson, but all the kids at the orphanage call me Dick." "Well, children can be cruel." "Wait, does Batman live in Bruce Wayne's basement?" "No, Bruce Wayne lives in Batman's attic." "You think you're my greatest enemy?" "Who else drives you to one-up them the way I do?" "Superman." "Superman's not a bad guy!" "I like to fight around." "Mr. Freeze, Penguin, Crazy Quilt, Eraser, Polka-Dot Man, Mime, Tarantula, King Tut, Orca, Killer Moth, March Harriet, Zodiac Master, Gentlemen Ghost, Clock King, Calendar Man, Kite Man, Catman, Zebra-Man, and the Condiment King!" "Okay, are you making some of those up?" "Nope, they're all real. Probably worth a Google." "Black. All important movies start with a black screen. And music. Edgy, scary music that would make a parent or studio executive nervous. And logos. Really long and dramatic logos." "What's the password?" "Iron Man sucks." "Why did you build this thing with only one seat?" "Because last I checked I only had one butt." "Were you looking at the old family pictures again?" "No, I wasn't!" "Sir, I have seen you go through similar phases in 2016 and 2012 and 2008 and 2005 and 1997 and 1995 and 1992 and 1989 and that weird one in 1966." "I have aged phenomenally!" George
  8. There were several shows in the 70's with this general idea. "Search" had three rotating private investigators. "NBC Mystery Movie of the Week" brought us Banacek, Columbo, MacMillan and Wife, and others. I'm just not getting the "publishing company" reference, nor who the particular "hottie" was. George
  9. It was a case of mistaken identity. For some reason, I thought that the first Billy Jack movie was "Walking Tall." I believe that the correct answer is "The Born Losers." George
  10. I thought the title included the Legend of Billy Jack, though that might have been a sequel. George
  11. I recognize the last two lines, but I couldn't tell you the title or artist. George
  12. Not yet, and no. This is not a live-action film. George
  13. You're sort of on the right track, but this was much more recent. George
  14. "Black. All important movies start with a black screen. And music. Edgy, scary music that would make a parent or studio executive nervous. And logos. Really long and dramatic logos." "What's the password?" "Iron Man sucks." "Why did you build this thing with only one seat?" "Because last I checked I only had one butt." "Were you looking at the old family pictures again?" "No, I wasn't!" "Sir, I have seen you go through similar phases in 2016 and 2012 and 2008 and 2005 and 1997 and 1995 and 1992 and 1989 and that weird one in 1966." "I have aged phenomenally!" George
  15. You are correct. Humorously, when the cast would come out for bows at the end of each taping, Earl Hindman ("Wilson") would always hold a small piece of fence in front of his face (with the exception of the final show). You're up, Human. George
  16. This will be far too easy, but I loved the show. Other than a couple of "so-and-so was originally slated to play [featured role]", there isn't a lot of good trivia out there on it. On episodes containing a show-within-a-show, the studio audience of the "pretend" show was the studio audience of the real show. The last US broadcast network sitcom to be videotaped. The iconic neighbor, whose whole face is never seen, was based on the star's childhood memories, where he was too short to see over the fence. George
  17. Donald Pleasance The Great Escape James Garner George
  18. Jessica Tandy Driving Miss Daisy Dan Aykroyd George
  19. Could it be "Frasier"? It was still on in 2004, and Kelsey Grammer played the role for about 20 years. However, his "ex-wife" was Lilith, who did not, as far as I know, portray a "Nanny G." Still, it's my best guess. (Maybe one of Grammer's real life exes was Nanny G?) George George
  20. I was afraid I was going to have to exclaim something like "Neptune's beard!" "The Poseidon Adventure" is correct. George
  21. Name the actor: Henry Sikorsky "Sleepy" Bill Burns Harold March Lou Russo George
  22. Something just occurred to me. If a mute person is asked (or decides) to speak in tongues and interpret, one would assume that the interpretation would be the standard sign language he's accustomed to. It's the speaking (signing) in tongues part that gets tricky. Would it all be finger-spelled? I don't know how many sign languages there are, but I would guess that most use very similar (if not identical) signs for the same words. Is that true? If so, signing in tongues and interpreting would be like speaking in British English and interpreting in American English. Has anyone here been in a meeting with mute manifestations? George
