Care to post the answer, George?

Keep in mind that not a lot of us will have that in the first place. I don't have music of the people I liked back in twi because they made music on tape back then. Few have made CDs and digital formats available. The people most likely to have converted them to digital, i think, tend to be more in the "how dare you suggest vpw wasn't a fantastic human being" camp. They're more likely to have felt the need to have either that or have no music at all, so they would have arranged conversions some time ago. All of that's my thinking, though, so I might be wrong.

That's him. Oliver Putnam is a role he's playing now, in "Only Murders in the Building." His character is one of two who are elderly fans of mystery solving. They're going to try to solve murders. Since they're not up to the rigors of investigation, they're only going to solve murders that happen in their own apartment building. (I SWEAR I'm not making that up.)

OK, next round. This was a rather famous TV show. There were also movies and books as well as the show. The main character was very obviously female. It seems traditional, by now, to have a male actor performing the role- as far as I can determine, in every single appearance on TV and in movies, that's been the case. BTW, they originally cast an actress, but she refused to shoot a potentially-dangerous shot involving swimming in water from a REAL flood while they filmed on-location. The actor not only nailed the scene in the first take, he did it so convincingly that the director got tears in his eyes. He built a reputation for filming in one take and doing all his own stunts. All of this predated the TV show, but the same actor went on to play "her" in the show. What was this TV show's name?

It's not part of a turn, but I wanted to say something that's on my mind right now. "Mr Iglesias" was GABRIEL Iglesias' show ( aka "Fluffy") When he was growing up, his mother told him he wasn't "fat", he was "fluffy". There's 3 categories, I THINK the first is "puffy", then there's "fluffy", then there's "D@MM!!!", according to his account. He's done a LOT of stand-up. ("Hey, why are your fans bringing you cake?" "I've mentioned in the shows that I like cake." "You should tell them you like hookers, man!" "Why do I drink diet soda? So I can have regular cake.") So, GI "Fluffy" is the new voice for Speedy Gonzales in the new "Space Jam". Stephen Colbert interviewed him the other month. It came up that GI had caught the Delta variant of Covid. Since he'd had the double vaccination, he was in bed for a day with chills, and he was up and around the next day. He said that he credited that entirely to the 2 shots, since he was in generally poor health to begin with. (He's morbidly obese and apparently has Type 2 Diabetes.) He said he's had HANGOVERS that have treated him worse. BTW, when they tested him out, he did a fantastic job with Speedy Gonzales' voice immediately. When they complimented him on the first attempt being so successful, he replied, "Yes, I've been Mexican a long time." Without reference to anything else, I felt the need to pass that along. Now, let's see, I need to post the next round....

what have been the twisted texts of scripture (the Bible)?
WordWolf replied to AmazingT's topic in About The Way
There's a number of other threads that have similar content. Here's a few. https://www.greasespotcafe.com/ipb/topic/19172-more-blatant-pfal-errors/ https://www.greasespotcafe.com/ipb/topic/24071-when-is-it-a-person-when-is-it-alive/ -

WordWolf replied to AmazingT's topic in About The Way
That thread is a good starting point. That thread is not all the verses wierwille used wrongly. My usual rule is that any doctrine vpw stated that had only one verse justifying it, or even less than one verse, was almost certainly error and needed to be studied carefully. By the way, what's your main language? If one of us knows it, you might find it easier to communicate with us in that, at least sometimes. If it's Spanish (for example), we do have a few posters who know some Spanish. -
How about "SOFIA LOREN", then?

Any chance in the world this was ELIZABETH TAYLOR????

He did seem the obvious choice to go first. BTW, the next clue was probably going to be that the local name for the show was "Black and White." (Subtle people, those marketers.)

It had a cousin Oliver, not counting various friends of Arnold.

This show is less recent than "Beverly Hills 90210." However, both shows were big enough that they aired in syndication where I'm posting from now. I'll have to ask Mrs Wolf what the correct name for this show was here, in syndication, since the original name was an expression that didn't translate well here, despite being in the theme song. (Then again, if you're used to ignoring theme songs in another language and just wait for the episode to begin with dubbing or captions in your language, the lyrics of the theme song will be meaningless to you, and you won't care. Don't believe me? Try watching an episode of "Shaun the Sheep" in another language, like "Shaun Das Schaf".)

Only one song mentions sidewalk hotter than a match head. "SUMMER IN THE CITY." -

Next show. This show aired for 8 seasons, not counting syndication. It ended abruptly, without a proper "final episode", so some of the regular cast weren't in the last episode and didn't find out until later that it WAS the last episode. It was used for back-door pilots of a few shows, almost all of which either were never picked up or went away fast. It had some celebrity guest-stars like Muhammad Ali and Mr. T. It also had a number of "very special" episodes, addressing serious topics like racism, hitchhiking, kidnapping, and child sexual abuse. Finally, after the show ended, some of the regulars really hit the skids in their personal lives. What was this show's name?
