You are supercalifragilisticexpialidociously correct! George

Same character, same scene (I think): "A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down." George

Good guess, but no. I'll modify one of the clues, to make it a bit easier. If that doesn't work, I can make it a LOT easier. As was usually the case, back in the day, variety series usually went on hiatus for the summer, to be replaced by another series. One of the top variety shows at the time featured an ensemble of women who were spun off in their own summer series. The "[1] Show," then, was replaced by "[1] Presents [2]." The latter show was the highest-rated replacement show of the year (1968), so it was back for another season, in 1969. In 1970, the venue moved, so the (summer replacement) show was called "[1] Presents [2] in London." As well as appearing in the US in its usual, hourly, format, it was shown in England in half-hour installments. In 1971, the ensemble was spun off into their own, weekly, syndicated series, "Chevrolet Presents [2]," which lasted two seasons. The group [2] got its name from a number of Busby Berkeley films of the 1930's. The name usually implies women who marry men for money. I'm more interested in [2], but I suspect that if you know , you'll know [1], as well. George

I just found out that there is a new Justice League cartoon show, currently running. "Justice League Action" runs Saturday mornings on the Cartoon Network. Unfortunately, it's a 15-minute show, so it doesn't show up in my DVR guide. I tried taping the shows before and after, but that didn't work. I think I can set my DVR to record a particular time slot, rather than a specific show. Alternatively, I might actually use my VCR, which still works. I notice that at least one episode has been "unlocked" on the Cartoon Network website, for public viewing. Additionally, a third season of "Young Justice" is scheduled to start soon (in February, I think), though it might only be available on Netflix. George

It helps to have a big movie-producer brother. Clint always got roles in Ron's movies. I shall post a new one, soon. George

Balok: Clint Howard? George

I think I've got a copy lying around, somewhere. Maybe I should auction it off! George

Everything seems to be in the correct order, now, so I'll re-post: There's another problem, though: for some reason the letter B in brackets doesn't appear. Let's change A and B to 1 and 2: As was usually the case, back in the day, variety series usually went on hiatus for the summer, to be replaced by another series. One of the top variety shows at the time featured an ensemble of women who were spun off in their own summer series. The "[1] Show," then, was replaced by "[1] Presents [2]."

Not the Truman Show. "What is this place?" "Looks like a diner." "That's clever. You know, you almost had me going there for a while. I was a bit groggy before, then I started noticing things. Like, you got a stockbroker over here, all dressed up reading the Financial Times on a Sunday morning when the market's closed. Unlikely, but okay, I can go with that. I can even go with the stick-up man packing a cop-issue Beretta. But you want to know where you blew it? [points at waitress] With her. My aunt was in the restaurant business all her life. There's no way in hell a career waitress comes to work in high heels. She'd have blisters the size of pancakes before lunch. And if she ain't real, then this whole thing ain't real. That's how I knew this bozo over here wouldn't get a shot off even if we waited till St. Patrick's Day. Because there's nothing but blanks in these guns. Oh, and no offense, but their performances were terrible." "First you set me up in the bar. Then you shoot me in the back." "My boss does it to me. I did it to you. It's a vicious circle." "I've been undercover here for two years." "Two years? What was your plan? To let them die of old age?" George

All my posts seem to out of order. I wouldn't be surprised if even this (quoting WW's post) shows up ahead of his. George

Hopefully, this will appear after WW's post. I'm not sure how it got before his. George

It's from the Blues Brothers, but I don't know if it's Jake or Elwood. I'll go with Jake (Belushi). George

I'm sure that Raf or WW can get it from these six. George

God, no. I'm flipping over all the cards. "Fight Club." FREE POST George

I think that in the Batman/Green Hornet crossover, Bruce Wayne and Britt Reid are mentioned as childhood friends. I'll come up with one, soon. Has anyone seen Raf? George

So far, so good. (And you couldn't name "Cleopatra"? That's not this film, though.) George

"Rosemary's Baby" didn't come out until 1968. This should have been the biggest clue: Two of the stars married each other. Twice. (Each had a few other spouses, as well.) George

Am I right? George

In her A&E Biography special, the lead actress remarked that her performance as Martha was her personal best. 18th July 1966: Police seized this film, and arrested the manager of a local Nashville cinema, for contravening a municipal order that banned films, as this, for contents of an obscene nature. Two of the stars married each other. Twice. The first movie to be given the MPAA tag: "No one under 18 will be admitted unless accompanied by his parent." While the lead actor and actress were forces to be reckoned with while they were working, it was a challenge to actually get them in front of the camera every day. They both had it in their contracts that they didn't have to be on the set until 10:00 A.M., even though most other productions began at dawn. After they arrived on set, it would take two hours of makeup, hair and wardrobe to get them ready for shooting, and by the time they were camera ready, it was lunch time. They would often go off for lengthy cocktail-filled lunches, often with friends, and then return late in the afternoon to finally begin shooting. "When they finally came back late," recalled Sam O'Steen, "they'd just ignore it all, be real nice. 'Hey, Mike, old buddy, sorry we're late. Okay, let's shoot!'...Sometimes they wouldn't come back 'til five o'clock and they had in their contract that they couldn't work past six o'clock." This movie became the first motion picture, since Cimarron (1931), to be nominated for every Academy Award category in which it was eligible, including Best Adapted Screenplay, Director, all the acting categories, and Picture of the Year. The Supporting Actress, who was pregnant at the time of filming, suffered a miscarriage on the set. The MPAA insisted on the removal of the term "screw you" from the film where it was replaced with the term "God damn you" but allowed the terms "screw" and "hump the hostess" to remain in the film.

If I'm not mistaken, WW is up. I already "stole" "Name that Flick," so I'll wait on this one. George

Oh, and Ray Palmer saying that Supergirl looked like his cousin was cute, too. Ready for the winter season to begin. CW is shuffling its lineup. Not super-heroic, but definitely comic-related, will be "Riverdale." When I started reading comics, along with DCs, I read Archie and Dennis the Menace. Dropped the "funny" books when the prices went up. George
