A radio Twilight Zone revival happened a few years back. It wasn't really successful, but there's at least still an attempt at the medium.

Not their best. The Godzilla meta-joke stretched itself much too far and neither of the other two segments were too memorable at all (unexpected Elvis Costello always a plus though).

The worst as I remember it was 2005's.

Pick up Rocket to Russia. If you know the "hits" (which were not hits), it's the best launching point.

Killing Hitler was the one redeeming thing Hitler did—why take that away from him?

I've really only listened to the first four (of which I'm counting Taking Liberties, worth it on the strength of Crawling to the USA alone) and a few odds and ends from the other three and half decades. I've never dug too deep into his eighties output because what I heard from then rarely appealed to me (I know it

The arm was played by the same guy who played Lurch (whenever they weren't being seen together).

I remember that. The thing about that was that because I'd watched the sixties version, I could tell the reboot was mostly just using the old scripts and tweaking/updating them. And they dropped the iconic theme song for something unremarkable and stupid.

I know this is a thread for title puns, but we all know the only sign you'll see at this restaurant in a few months is "Space for Lease."

Does your company have a color in its name by chance?

I just took a job downtown. While I would never actually live there, it's a great neighborhood that's really re-building itself with new stuff coming in. Of course I can't help thinking it'll just be sadder when the auto industry crashes again and everything closes down again.

I live there and I don't either, strangely enough.

I work downtown and it's thriving. The rest of the city, aside from midtown which is doing okay but not spectacular, is dying or already dead. They can't bulldoze that fast enough.

It was a shitty program that couldn't pay for itself and was just a drain on the state's budget through incentives that couldn't prove their worth. Film your shit somewhere else entertainment industry.

Charlie LeDuff is a journalist and was never a detective. Why do I expect higher accuracy standards here? I don't know, but I do.

Al Sharpton for some reason was a guest host when he ran his voter-less primary campaign in 2003. A few of the affiliates refused to run the show because of equal-time rules, but it didn't really turn out to be a big deal and I don't remember it being publicly rectified.

He actually did perform a little in a sketch on his first hosting gig (keyboards, but I don't remember if it was him actually doing anything).

A petition on a TV show is called a remote control. If you don't want something, don't watch it.

Well, the season premiere was still a travesty. The paradigm isn't completely dead.

I'm always worried about the self-lionizing in musical memoirs. Is there too much of that in this one?
