Looks like Cloris Leachman and Christopher Lloyd are this. Wasn't Oogieloves bad enough?

I pleased that The Real Ghostbusters holds up well. The Filmation Ghostbusters on the other hand…

Staircase would have been the best song on KOL if it was included on the original album and not Live From The Basement.

Anything by Jim Croce…

Wow, I actually remember that Bone Chillers book! It was a Goosebumps knock-off, and I didn't know there was a tv version of it, but considering that book ended with kids vomiting up larvae, I'd have sat that one out.

Butch and Sundance: The Early Years!

They're butchering the classics! John Williams must be rolling around in his grave!

Would have loved a Popol Vuh scored Star Wars, but alas…

Saw it in a class on Irish film. The professor (and current drinking friend) cited that this had a good example of how a hero is traditionally used in an Irish story-the hero is acted upon rather than initiating the action (in contrast to the hero in a Western movie, for example) and the hero's journey is led by
