"Big boys don't cry"
"The historian's wearing a bathrobe!"
"That's OK. I'll just visit the psychotic virgin down the street" (major paraphrasing)

"It's about time, it's about space, it's about…time!" I'm sure there were more lyrics to the theme song, but those are the only ones I remember.

I did not know that. Thanks.

I'm not much of a Blue Bloods fan, because I just don't find the characters interesting, but I do occasionally watch a rerun on WGN. Will Donnie lose his temper and go off half-cocked? Will his sister Erin pull him back before he gets into trouble? But it is agreeable, and I like that Commissioner Daddy Reagan isn't

I thought it was hair gel for men.

Heh. That's probably the main reason I stopped watching Madame Secretary.

"American Graffiti" is, IMO, one of the greatest movies ever made. It's definitely "stay on the DVR forever"worthy.

We got rid of our DVR/cable service yesterday. I'm going through general DVR withdrawal (sometimes I just want to sit down and watch Law & Order, you know), but it wasn't until later in the day when I realized I can't watch Jeopardy anymore. I am bummed.

You mentioned that Bonnie Franklin could get kind of hammy. I loved this show, and watched it from the first episode to the last, but she drove me crazy sometimes. I recall now that she had a stage background, which is probably what caused the hamminess. As you also mentioned, the show could be really earnest, which,

A few years ago, I went to weather.com (it has a real, actual place where you can talk about the weather, which cracked me the hell up at first) because there was a snow storm in my hometown in PA. All I wanted was to find out what was going on up there. It only took three comments for the discussion to turn into a

He was, and always will be, Rhoda's father.

I'd be surprised if it hasn't. I just don't want any geometric love stories on screen, no matter the sexual persuasion.

Right? I just don't even know what he was thinking. He's always having to handle more than one thing at a time, and he manages by delegating. There was no reason for him to be so distracted that he couldn't think to protect her.

Oh, yeah, you're right. But I can't help thinking it's going to happen eventually. And that will just irritate me to no end.

Ha! I'd love to see Trubel constantly on the verge of losing it over having to be nice to Adalind because Nick asks, no, begs her to be nice. "At the least, Truble, please don't your sword on her.!"

Stop talking about love triangles, dammit.

I was thinking "Aren't you going to kiss her, then tell her you've always loved her?"

Other than Nick being a complete moron re: making sure Truble was safe, I loved this episode. I mean, this exchange alone:

I was actually kind of pissed off at Nick for not keeping Truble safe. She'd been missing for months, and it's not like she took off on her own. She'd been kidnapped, for christ' sake. He really dropped the ball, in that regard.

Yep. Me too. I just had to remember where Lake Wobegone is supposed to be (cripes, I sound like something who listens to Prairie Home Companion, when it actually drives me a little nutty), and took it from there in about 3 seconds.
