It narrows the field considerably. Large woman, famous performer, family sitcom, Joey Lawrence joined, 80s show.....

The "cousin oliver" is a child actor who is added to a show after a few years, in an attempt to "freshen up" the cast, primarily because the kids in the show are getting older and the show runners want a small child in the show because they think that will bring in the ratings. Lots of long-running sitcoms have done it, with the Brady's "cousin Oliver" (Robbie Rist) being the most famous, and therefore the trope namer. The animated theatrical release where he may or may not have been a cousin but was Oliver was the eponymous role in "Oliver and Company", an animal take on "Oliver Twist." That makes this Joey Lawrence. I remember him mostly for his role in "Blossom", but he was in other stuff at the time. Let's see.....

That's it.

"You want my professional opinion? He's nuts!" "Who is this jerk? And who told him he could turn off my music?" "I am the beginning, the end, the one who is many." -If you look closely, this is one movie that includes The Millenium Falcon in some backgrounds. (No story reason, the FX people wanted to sneak it in, and succeeded.) -Several scenes were filmed at a museum- probably for practical reasons, as it had exactly the right look for exactly what they wanted it to be in the movie. (Dialogue suggests it becomes a museum after the movie.) -This film's director was chosen both for experience, and for knowing the film's setting. He was probably an obvious choice out of the list of possible directors. He was also in some scenes, and had a reputation for being able to nail his performances inside of 2 takes, which lead to a new nickname "Two-Takes." -Some of the performers' costumes had to be adjusted during filming. The sets were hot, and the suits were heavy, so they kept losing weight in costume (obviously a lot of water retention was sweated out.) "I gotta take a leak." -I wonder what's so notable about Roy Orbison and Steppenwolf.

No.

Just so I can say I asked, "8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter?" I'm sure it took place at least a decade too late, but I can't shake the idea yet.

You've got the right idea, kinda, but this movie was not based on a comic book series, nor a comic book universe (per se.)

That's him. He did quite a few Disney TV-movies when he was younger.

This being a bit obscure, I'm going to help a little. This actor played the SAME character in all three movies. The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes The Strongest Man in The World Now You See Me, Now You Don't The character is Dexter Riley. These Disney flicks are early roles in an actor's career- he went on to more famous roles, or at least, better-remembered with this bunch of posters, I'd think. He'd apparently done a LOT of television when younger. That having been said, he doesn't seem to have gotten a big Ego over it. Since you still have Nobody in mind, that's probably justified. He's done a lot of movies since then. In one, he played Elvis, and in another, he played an Elvis impersonator. The Thing is, I'm trying to come up with something that will give a clue without giving away his identity.

No, Dexter Riley was still in school, as a student. Mac Murray would have had to have been a teacher or something if he was in the same movies.

Correct. I meant to post more hints on the 2nd one.

When I think of Dean Jones, the ONLY movies that come to mind are part of the "HERBIE THE LOVE BUG" franchise.

Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson Get Smart Steve Carrell

Ok, new spins on old concepts. Name any to take the round. A)This Netflix comedy is based on a similar concept to "Welcome Back Kotter." In this one, we focus more on the teachers, but there's a few jokes about the students as well. One administrator would love to run the Drama club- if the students would be willing to go along. Since he's a frustrated (inept) singer/actor, it's more about him than about actually teaching and engaging the students. Actors include Maggie Geha (adult Ivy from "Gotham") and Jacob Vargas (Mr Roarke from the "Fantasy Island" theatrical movie.) This show was derailed due to COVID and may be over abruptly. B) This 90s show was based on a similar concept to "the Brady Bunch." A couple remarries and each brings kids into the new family. Actors include Bronson Pinchot in a supporting role.

Since he didn't say if the answer was correct, I looked up "Mother's Little Helper" and that was it. Next one. "In and around the lake, the mountains come out of the sky and they stand there."

If "He is-I'm Abercrombie" had been a running gag for you, you'd have gotten it just as easily. I admit the running gag was unlikely to happen in the first place, except there's a big A + F store in Manhattan, and I used to shop there periodically before it got popular. (They sold some good colognes at one point.)

"Like it or not, he knew what he was doing when he assaulted women. When he messed with other men's wives. Even the most thick among us know that messing around with other people's spouses isn't a good look (as it were). " Yes, but this isn't a matter of how thick lcm was. When he was at university, he had no trouble recognizing that. This one goes back to vpw again. vpw specifically went out of his way to teach lcm that infidelity was fine if he could get away with it. He taught him his usual bs excuses, and even told him that he wouldn't make much of a leader until he got over his resistance to cheating on his wife. ("Loosening up in this category" was how he phrased it.) So, yes, fresh out of university, lcm knew that. After vpw was done indoctrinating him, he was ok when he assaulted women, and messed with other men's wives. I'm sure that-at that point- he no longer recognized that as obviously wrong. There's an old story. Someone asked some tribal elder what a conscience was. He said it was a 3-cornered thing in here (he signalled to his chest). When he did wrong, it spun, and the corners hurt him. But if he KEPT doing wrong, then the corners would wear down and it wouldn't hurt any more. lcm ONCE knew right from wrong. After vpw was done with him, he often confused one for the other and thought right was wrong and vice versa. I don't know if he's seeing the same reality as the rest of us even to this day. I hope he is, for his own sake.

Ok, this was Michael Penn's one hit, "NO MYTH." "What if I was Romeo in black jeans? What if I was Heathcliff, it's no myth. Maybe she's just looking for someone to dance with." For now, FREE POST.

Well, lots of shows and movies have reused a handful of places, and lots have had a mansion. There was a time (before it was cool) when I wore a shirt that had "Abercrombie and Fitch" on it in the Summer. (It was light grey and I like that in Summer.) When I walked in for Fellowship behind this new guy once, Raf read the shirt, then joked, asking "Who's Fitch?" I pointed to the new guy. "He is. I'm Abercrombie." So, I actually noticed when Roy Harper was nicknamed "Abercrombie" in "ARROW." Since the Queens had a mansion, that's probably the answer here.

Well, the new Kirk was also the new Steve Trevor- Chris Pine in "Wonder Woman" and "Star Trek", so that's who I'm going with.

lcm was one of vpw's victims, also. Think about it. lcm was this very average jock in college, with some connections to other Christians on campus. vpw was sold to him as the greatest thing since sliced bread. lcm bought it hook, line and sinker. lcm at graduation went straight from college into full-time twi, thus ensuring he NEVER had the experiences most people have of actually WORKING, paying rent, paying taxes, etc. He was groomed to do things in twi, and to imitate vpw all the time, convinced vpw actually had a connection to God Almighty. When it came time for vpw's successor, vpw made sure it was lcm because lcm never questioned vpw no matter what. (vpw wanted to make sure he always had his successor in his pocket.) Imagine vpw's surprise when lcm thought he had Papal Infallibility once he ascended twi's throne. He thought vpw had had a special connection to God- which HE now had as twi's Grand Poobah. All the draconian measures lcm took were because of various delusions vpw placed on him- a few of them accidentally. Worse, he was also the front-man (Read that "figurehead") when Donna and Rosalie wanted to do things and let him get the credit/ take the blame. When he got caught, they threw him under the bus, made it out as if they had NO IDEA he ever did wrong (even when they ARRANGED IT), and sent him away. In every other case, when a husband was kicked out of twi, the wife was kicked out as well. Donna remained comfortably ensconced at HQ because she and Rosalie made all the decisions and she wasn't going to kick herself out no matter how much of a double-standard that was. To this very day, I'm sure he has NO IDEA how badly he was played by all 3 people.
