  1. Fine. You're right. Which one(s) gave it away? George
  2. Go Ask Alice "What goes up, must come down." George
  3. Yes, indeed! Sort of a precursor to Amazon Women on the Moon. George
  4. Interesting. Completely different powers, but same creators. To which heavenly bodies were these NASA missions directed? Get three right to win the round. GRAIL (also called Ebb and Flow) Stardust Messenger Juno Curiosity Mariner 10 George
  5. Original titles for the film included "Free Popcorn" and "Closed for Remodeling". Presumably both were rejected for the confusion they would cause when displayed on a theater marquee. The scene in the "Catholic High School Girls In Trouble" segment, in which the young man says, "Mrs. Burke! I thought you were Dale", to the woman with whom he's sleeping, is a reference to an old Grape Nuts breakfast cereal commercial, in which a man mistakes his girlfriend's mother for his girlfriend. Because of the low budget and poor funding, the movie was shot with a variety of different cameras at any locations that were available, using actors willing to work for nearly-nothing paychecks. Likewise, in order to offset the potential of the few investors pulling out due to objectionable material, the less-offensive portions were filmed first, saving the raunchy stuff for last (or just plain keeping it hidden until the last minute).

  6. Sounds like Eddie Deezen from Raf's description. George
  7. Sounds like Superman by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. Don't know the villain version. George
  8. Still no. Maybe this will help: "Have I got things to tell you!" "What happened?" "I'm engaged." "Congratulations. Who's the lucky girl?" "I am!" "I don't care how rich he is, as long as he has a yacht, his own private railroad car, and his own toothpaste." "Will you look at that! Look how she moves! It's like Jell-O on springs. Must have some sort of built-in motor or something. I tell you, it's a whole different sex!" "Real diamonds! They must be worth their weight in gold!" "Water polo? Isn't that terribly dangerous?" "I'll say. I had two ponies drowned under me." "Oh no you don't! Osgood, I'm gonna level with you. We can't get married at all." "Why not?" "Well, in the first place, I'm not a natural blonde." "Doesn't matter." "I smoke! I smoke all the time!" "I don't care." "Well, I have a terrible past. For three years now, I've been living with a saxophone player." "I forgive you." "I can never have children!" "We can adopt some." "But you don't understand, Osgood! Ohh... I'm a man!" "Well, nobody's perfect!" George
  9. The Sound of Music Julie Andrews Mary Poppins George
  10. I haven't seen Midnight Madness. I can't think of any overlap between the other two movies, either. George
  11. Let's help you out. Virginia Madsen Creator Peter O'Toole George
  12. I was unaware of this, but she did pose in a potato sack (which she made look good). George
  13. Night Court is correct, and it was Larroquette. He is reprising his role as Dan Fielding on the new Night Court. Melissa Rauch plays Harry's daughter, now the presiding judge. George
  14. An actor on this show received four consecutive Emmys for Best Supporting Actor in a comedy. He asked for his name to be remove from consideration, after that. An actress on the show died after the second season. Her replacement (different character name but the same role) died the following year. The show was part of NBC's "Must See Thursday." The cast was offered more money to return for a tenth season, but the show would be aired on a syndicated basis as opposed to NBC. They declined. After the taping of the final episode on a Friday, the cast were sent telegrams to have their dressing rooms vacated by the following Monday, or their belongings would be thrown away. According to the series creator, many of the hookers and pimps on the show are named after his friends. He comments that the references are his way of saying "hello" to these people. George
