I had a friend who worked on Lonesome Dove, and she said Robert Urich was super-nice and great to work with. Pretty easy on the eyes, too.

There's nothing like the glow that comes with terminal illness.

Standard poodles are pretty cool dogs. Not like the little yapper dogs at all.

Liberace as a gangster in the original Batman tv series.
Top that.

Suddenly the name Kimmy Gibbler popped into my mind. What a thing to remember.

There are a lot of kids in The Cowboys, but it wouldn't fit the premise otherwise.

At first I thought Belushi, but then I considered the off-screen politics of Chuck Norris and changed my mind.

I like Last Action Hero, too. Not all of it but most of it.
Like when he opens his closet and all the clothes are exactly the same, and when he's talking to the boy's mother in the 'real' world and he takes such pleasure in normal conversation with a normal woman.

Of course she hates alcohol. Why else would she have all those children?

Ian Fleming and Noel Coward were friends.
Read into that what you will.

Did Lazenby do anything between OHMSS and The Pretender?

I liked Lazenby, too; I think he would have been considerably better than Roger Moore if he'd been better serviced.

I too am happy for its return. I've missed this quite a bit.

I liked Mr. Wrong. It wasn't a great movie, but the good bits outnumbered the bad. Would have been better with a different female lead.

I thought of that song a couple of days ago because "No thanks, Omaha" has been my response to many a suggestion that I suspected would turn out badly in the long run.

My brother taped Everybody Loves Raymond, obsessively. And he kept sending me tapes, no matter how many times I told him I didn't like the show and asked, then begged him to stop.
So I have dozens of unwatched videotapes of ELR which I would happily trade for two or three Gumby vids. If I still had a working VCR.

Except Paul was the Oral Roberts of his day—the origin of the Catholic Church, one of the biggest money-makers ever—and the convert is always the most fanatical about something.
Jesus was based on Mithras/Mithris.
Even the Slaughter of the Innocents exists only in the Biblical myths.

It was Clayton Moore who couldn't wear the mask anymore—he started wearing sunglasses instead at public appearances.
Clayton Moore was a very handsome man in his prime, pretty typical of tv stars of his era.

It was an homage to Raymond Burr.

Mickey Rourke was never more than comely.
