Loved the end of the Mad Magazine parody. Instead of throwing away his badge, he throws away his SAG card.

Since we never actually see the box, it's not really clear at first what's happening. One of those "wait, what?" moments. Also, if you found a box with an idol locked in it, why wouldn't you dig it up and stash it where only you knew where it was?

4. That Alecia redemption arc was amazing, culminating in a Jenny blindside/implosion!

The narrative laid out by ABC was of a lovable goofball who could only dream of being an actual underdog and was cheerfully humored by everyone but the people the flag next to his name represented. It's a little surprising to find the home front reaction part wasn't even in the ballpark.

Interesting, the American coverage of Calgary portrayed a wildly different picture of Eddie's countrymen.

Everybody loved Eddie the Eagle, except of course for those who saw him as an embarrassing disgrace (i.e. his entire country).

Loved the injured kid hobbling on one leg screaming "Asterisk! Asterisk!" after Bill's TD.

The second clue came with a device that's supposed to help retrieve it. It looks like he has to fashion some sort of pole to attach it to (which won't look conspicuous at all).

Wonder if he's referring to the mini controversy he caused when after coming out of a game he mouthed the words "Hey kids, do drugs." into the camera.

The idol was where the clue said it was, he just can't get to it without the key strapped fifteen feet up a palm.

I dunno, I get a slight "Dan Foley" vibe from the guy.

He did replant them. He also said they were dead, which is why he thought might have been "planted".

The basis for "Russell Hammond" in Almost Famous.

Outside of Leslie Easterbrook in a wet t-shirt, I can't think of anything about PA4 that would be inappropriate for an under-tenling.

"The prosecution demands blood!"

This is actually the fourth RR to feature a Hot to Trot alum, you left out Tim Kazurinsky.

"Why, that's a terrible thing. I don't know how many times I've told those boys never call chicks broads."

If Diane Lane could actually sing as well as her character did it might make her the ultimate dream chick.

Can’t say why he was dropped, but the Duke character was definitely in the mix during the show’s development. Tom Skerritt was approached to reprise the role but shot it down because he had doubts about the show’s potential.

Gene put Taxi Driver on his Ten Best list for 1976.
He gave a positive review to Jurassic Park, but thought Carnosaur was more fun.
He identified Blade Runner as "boring and predictable" along with Roger (Ebert liked the FX enough to give it a pass).
The best thing about PWBA making his ten worst list was that Roger had
