"May the Schwartz be with you!"

"The cats don't bug him 'cause they know better. He's a mean motor-scooter and a bad go-getter." "He sure is hip ain't he? Like, what's happening? He's too much. Ride, Daddy, ride."

That's up the the viewer, I think. Personally, I thought it was special and memorable. Then again, at the time, I was in their target audience.

"The cats don't bug him 'cause they know better. He's a mean motor-scooter and a bad go-getter."

That's Butch, the boxer in "Pulp Fiction."

His name is "Butch." I wonder what it means.....

This movie could TECHNICALLY be described as an exploration of the path to stardom, with glimpses of the drawbacks on the way there. One character abruptly abandons the lead at a phone-call from their agent, another expresses the loneliness of the road and having to leave home behind, and the lead must continually face the prospect of selling out rather than following his dream of making millions of people happy. Oddly enough, a different character's dream was totally possible- to go to Bombay India (as it was called) to become a movie star. The other method ( Hollywood) isn't necessarily "the easy way." Despite it being technically possible to sign a contract and then become rich and famous, I highly doubt anyone actually has a boilerplate for a "STANDARD rich and famous" contract. This movie had cameos by a remarkable number of stars including Telly Sevalas, Milton Berle, and Richard Pryor.

"I'm an excellent driver!"

Wild guess, "DYNASTY" with Susan Lucci unable to get an Emmy?

Steve Harwell is dead? Aw, fudge.

That last line's familiar. "MY HOMETOWN" by Bruce Springsteen?

These are obviously storm chasers talking. However, I'm not aware of any movie CALLED "storm chasers." So, the next most logical choice is they were following an eponymous storm in "TWISTER."

Oberon the Ufgood was in "Dwarves Assemble." Lickspittle was in "Maleficent-Mistress of Evil." Lubdan was the eponymous Leprechaun in the movies of that name. And so on. Most of the time, it's pointless to cast WD as a VOICE actor since he's hired for his height. Well, it's a living.

I'm not sure ANY of those are cartoon characters. I'm certain most of them are not. (This actor is usually a poor choice for voice acting rather than live acting, for reasons obvious in hindsight.) Also not Mel Blanc.

For now, FREE POST.

That's it.

OK, a handful of shows have suffered mangling into 1/2 hour episodes in syndication. Many didn't have title characters. I need to think about this.

Right, she was the guest-hostess.

DING-DING-DING! Jill St John of "Mac Millan and Wife" was that episode's guest-hostess.
