You're working right? My mom would kill to get me successfully employed in a professional capaicity that i could put on a resume right about now. Its 3 AM and i'm sitting here typing this—and i'm not gonna be getting paid to watch and then talk about Deputy Dong tonight! However that's not gonna stop me from coming…

I love Benson—i wished to Crom we could get the rest of that damn series out on dvd already! Its been a millennium since i saw that episode where Rene Auberjonois thinks he's Benson and starts doing a full on Robert Guillume impression for the bulk of the episode!

WHAT'S GOT INTO THAT CAT?!?!?!
FRISKEES!!!!

Costner as Newman makes so much sense—its downright scary!
I don't know so much about LaBeouf tho now that i think about it i can see the Tom Cruise comparisons—-that's kind of scary because i could totally see a younger mid 80's era Cruise as a slightly older version of LaBeouf's character in the Transformers movies…

both! it was also on MeTv for a while too (it might even still be there) Franko I swear if you lived even within the tri-state area i would find a way to personally bring over my dvd set of the show!

And it also features a wonderful last moment in that last episode that completely shows how the two characters havn't changed a bit in all their years together but have at least gotten good at lying to each other about it!

Around Randall's death i remember reading somewhere—and it might've even been from Klugman himself— that a lot of the dialog where he's trying to teach Klugman about something and then their subsequent argument this would lead to— was often worked out between Randall and Klugman by themselves. Like they would get a…

At least they benefited from having shows that had an established audience on before them—-for most of Benson's run which was also mostly on Friday nights—it was often the lead-off show and paired up with shows that were pitched at a much younger demographic. Benson was paired up with Webster for its last two seasons…

Oscar Oscar Oscar
Aaaah! Aaaah—Aaaaahhhhh!

I had them all more or less memorized by the time i was like 9 and there was a lot of the humor that went over my head of course although i never would've said that at the time.

Costner—Sports Movie—Possible Profit.
Everything else is just trying to squeeze Costner into a sports related film in a plausible way since he's now officially too old to be a player even in the movies!

I still didn't get what the hell the message in "Two For The Money" was supposed to be. I saw it in theaters—i was working in one at the time it came out—and i sat thru it with a friend of mine—and neither one of us was quite sure what the movie was trying to say—Gambling is bad? Go For It…with your gut instead of…

SHOE ME THE MONEY!!!
(puts giant wooden clog on hands!)

A friend of mine were actually talking about "Radio" maybe a week ago? and he actually pointed out to me that "Radio" is essentially "The Waterboy" but played straight and for full serious weighty dramatic effect. I couldn't tell him he was unright!

was that your nickname in junior high??? my nickname in seventh and eighth grade gym class was "i can't play football!" mostly because i had little to no idea what the hell i was doing out there (but i could at least be pointed in a direction and told to run) It wasn't that good a nickname i grant you, even then i was…

i saw Baumbach speak a couple years back…and i had a dvd copy of Mr. Jealousy on me! He didn't wanna sign it but he did seem amused that i had a dvd copy of it on me as in "hey somebody owns that!!!"

Happy Birthday Felix….(Its Felix's Birthday!) (You're old in the best way)
I've seen it twice now—-aside from the Felix Birthday song (from Luna's Dean Wareham—God bless him!) and the 2 guys wearing the exact same dinosaur costume I can't really remember too much about it but I did enjoy it enough that I sat through…

much as I've enjoyed him in pretty much anything I've ever seen him in on tcm now that I'm thinking about it. (that 70's Michael Caine movie he co-starred in "Pulp" is a terrifically underrated movie and I completely forgot he was in that until reading the obit now) Reading his full obit here though with all the…

end of an epoch?

I never even heard of that before so thanks!
