  1. I think Danny Glover did say it in Lethal Weapon, but "Sgt. Hulka" said it in Stripes while jumping onto the back of the assault van. So, "You can't handle the truth!" George
  2. I'm thinking "Planes, Trains, and Automobiles." Steve Martin uses the F-word a BUNCH when chewing out a rental car employee after trudging through snow and ice, only to find no car in the space. Her response? "Well, I guess you're f-ed!" George
  3. There's probably more than one movie with that line, but I know it's in Stripes "You can't handle the truth!" George
  4. Correct on both counts. The others are The New Adventures of Beans Baxter you got it Mr. President Duet you got it I never watched Parker Lewis, but I did watch the others. They were all pretty good. George
  5. As I mentioned above, most of FOX's early programming was short-lived comedies. Name one of these to win the round. A teenager is recruited to work for a US spy organization. He has to keep it secret from his mother, because (for some reason) her life would be endangered because of the knowledge. Miss Universe Shawn Weatherly appears as herself in an episode. A magazine research assistant's thoughts are portrayed by several actors. (Sort of like the STNG episode "Loud as a Whisper"). George C. Scott's first (and, AFAIK, only) television show. Centered on the romance of a novelist (Matthew Laurance) and a caterer (Mary Page Keller), but gradually the focus shifted to their yuppie friends (Chris Lemmon, Alison LaPlaca) and the show was rebranded as Open House. Basically "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" as a sitcom. George
  6. Star Trek 4, The Voyage Home “Carpe diem. Seize the day, boys. Make your lives extraordinary.” George
  7. Not Tony Curtis. He died in 2004. You've seen his films. These have been characters from earlier films, but even those I've had to curate to remove the obvious ones. Emiliano Zapata Marc Antony Johnny Strabler Terry Malloy Napoleon Bonaparte Sky Masterson Rio Fletcher Christian Freddy Benson Matt Fletcher Maj. Weldon Penderton Peter Quint George
  8. I Saw Her Standing There "Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans, way back up in the woods among the evergreens." George
  9. Lethal Weapon Danny Glover Predator 2 George
  10. Emiliano Zapata Marc Antony Johnny Strabler Terry Malloy Napoleon Bonaparte Sky Masterson Rio Fletcher Christian Freddy Benson George
  11. Sounds like a cop film, but I need more names. George
  12. I'd ask for more clues, but I'm not sure they'd help. George
  13. A) First pope in centuries to resign (causing a new election without his death)? B) First pope to use two names C) D) Olympic swimmer? George
  14. Star Trek III The Search for Spock "You'll put your eye out!" George
  15. I'm old school. Picking ONE of each: Vocalist I'd like to say Dion, but I'll go with Roy Orbison Lead guitar: Eric Clapton Bass: Paul McCartney (though honestly, I can't think of anyone particularly distinguished there -- kind of like rhythm guitar) Drummer: Dave Clark Piano: Jerry Lee Lewis Other keyboard: Stevie Wonder George
  16. Swing and a miss. There are some very obvious roles for this actor; I will save them for later. Emiliano Zapata Marc Antony Johnny Strabler Terry Malloy Napoleon Bonaparte Sky Masterson George
  17. (A) is clearly Gilligan's Island. Not getting the other one. I remember a "Dusty's Trail" which was a western trail ride version of GI, even starring Bob Denver as Dusty. Not post-apocalyptic, though. With the exception of The Simpsons and Married with Children, though, pretty much EVERY early FOX show was a short-lived sitcom. George
  18. Judge Reinhold Ruthless People Bette Midler George
  19. Well, that kills my second guess. I was thinking something like "Raising Arizona," with a death-row prisoner and a jailer. I imagine the real answer isn't as interesting. George
