In his autobiography, Larry Hagman wrote about how he traveled around the country in an old bread truck, drinking, smoking, and generally having a good time. One bar he enjoyed was owned by a nice couple in Boulder, Montana.

Love the callback to the first impression that Douglas's character had of her sister-in-law, "A four-letter word beginning with the letter 'C'…..Cold."

A fairly prominent "All in the Family" episode, "The Games Bunkers Play," is centered around a '70s-style relationship board game called "Cop Out." Archie bails to Kelsey's while the Lorenzos and Lionel come over to play.

I think if they had gotten a little more quickly to what was the ninth episode, the Michael Schur-written "Valerie Hangs With the Cool Kids," it might have developed more momentum.

It looked scary, so Eischeid away from it.

When in Malta, visit "Popeye Village," which includes the actual sets!

It was much better than "Good Morning Bumwad County with Cindy Lee and Melvin."

Even into the '80s on WNBC, he'd intro the local news and lead into/out of commercials on camera. Presumably, he was just on camera at that point because he was Don Pardo.

I always thought Woody Allen was very clever to open “Radio Days” with this particular vignette where Don Pardo essentially voices himself as a '40s radio quiz-show announcer. It got viewers right into the mood by using an authentic voice from the period portrayed yet someone who was also familiar to the people…

People understandably remember Bette Midler's tribute, but Robin Williams was Johnny Carson's first guest on his last real Tonight Show—on a night when Johnny could have had anyone.

I think the pilot's quality, pedigree, and a wave of advance critical praise led CBS into believing that it could be a Cosby-type cornerstone. While certainly not in Cosby's league, Tim Reid was very well liked from "WKRP," "Simon & Simon" and his earlier standup team with Tom Dreesen.

Absolutely, I think he just got surprised that the song by some guy he never heard of became such a hit that it reached people in his audience who might be offended by it.

I'm not so sure, his part contains nothing but descriptions of baseball action. He was famous for inventing the "WW" scoring notation to denote that he "wasn't watching."

I think Scooter was acting coy for the sake of the little old ladies who sent him free cannolis. I'm certain that his outrage over being "duped" never reached the level of refusing royalties. He did spend his entire life around baseball players, as reflected by this story that I think is in Maury Allen's book:

I agree that a little exposition as to the cycling team intricacies would have helped and that the Kathy LeMond footage (then and now) was very compelling. Greg's nonchalance about two life-threatening incidents strangely contrasted with his prickliness toward her recall of several events.

I don't subscribe to that point of view.

I think they're also selling the old ones to non-ESPN outlets as well, so they might pop up on local Fox Sports-type channels.

I assume that songwriting royalties were apportioned normally on the album, so I wonder if Bruce intentionally used a cover as his contribution to help out Jimmy Cliff. He might have wanted to avoid the hassle of donating that money and questions associated with profiting from a so-called charity effort.

Yes, that was from the "Vision Quest" soundtrack.
