Name that TV Show [EZ quotes only]
GeorgeStGeorge replied to Raf's topic in Movies, Music, Books, Art
To be fair, without Firefly already in mind, the names Kaylee and Jayne could have been anybody and, likely, both women. Now if you had thrown in a "Goram" or "Shining" line, it might have been a bit more obvious. George -

Firefly. George -
The star received his draft notice in 1943, and trained at Camp Wheeler, Georgia, before shipping out for North Africa. He was assigned to the 3rd Infantry Division in time for the invasion of Anzio. Ten days after the invasion, he was severely wounded in the leg and foot by machine gun fire. He lost part of his foot, and received a medical discharge from the Army. When shooting movies or television shows, any scenes that required extensive walking would be shot early in the morning, before his feet and knees started giving out. For his service, he received: a Bronze Star, Purple Heart, European-African-Middle Eastern Campaign Medal with three bronze campaign stars, the World War II Victory Medal, and the Combat Infantryman Badge. The star was the only actor to appear in every episode. One other actor missed only thirty episodes, six while he was recovering from a heart attack. The show was slated to be cancelled in 1967 due to low ratings, but CBS President William Paley, who was a big fan, reversed the decision. He moved the show from Saturdays to Mondays (cancelling Gilligan's Island in the process), placing it back in the Nielsen's Top Ten. George

I have no idea, but "hands of blue" might imply Smurfs (?) George -

Indeed. FWIW, while my (now ex-) wife spent the night before our wedding with her daughters, sisters, and friends, I was home arranging deliveries, writing checks... We DID have a rehearsal dinner... George

That would presumably be "Community." George

I would have gotten it from the Sensuous Nurse, but She and Dr. No were also ones I'd have recognized. You're up. George

This was one of a very famous star's first movies. He had already starred in a TV show. Kelly McGillis had secured the female lead, but was fired early in the shoot because she wasn't considered to be pretty or sexy enough. Julia Louis-Dreyfuss was also considered for the role. Some considered for the male lead ("Rick") were Paul Reiser, Jim Carrey, Howie Mandel and Tim Robbins. The scene where the nude Tracy (Monique Gabrielle) seduces Rick was cut out of mainstream TV broadcasts. Gabrielle said they also shot a TV version where she wears a negligee with one strap lowered, but it was also cut out of broadcasts because it showed too much cleavage. George
