The problem with TVTropolis and Comedy Gold and the like is they only show certain seasons of a show. They stopped airing Barney Miller at the end of Season Two and then just started at the beginning, when the show had a pretty different tone.

I loooooooved those old ads. During the 1996 presidential campaign, they also aired old "I Like Ike" and "Nixon's the One" ads.

Great Muppet Caper is fabulous. Kermit and Fozzie as brothers, Charles Grodin singing love songs to a pig, Miss Piggy hauling ass on a motorcycle - what isn't there to love?

I'm gonna say from left to right, Peacock, Mustard, Scarlet, Green, White and  Plum.

It's hardly worth it but…yawn.

They actually said that "Ain't No Other Man" was from the Steve Carrell box-office giant, GET SMART.

Man, I really respect him and all that, but I just don't LIKE him. I'd like to think that he's playing cocky MC for the show and at home he's a little less obnoxious.

But isn't Joe Cocker's version in the WOODSTOCK movie?  They could've just said that.

I have to say there is nothing more painful when you recommend something to a friend and they wind up hating it. It happens all the time with a friend of mine and after she loathed THE MAGICIANS, I finally smelled the bacon frying and stopped giving her book suggestions. We're just on different pages, so to speak.

I was confused by that too. Did she write down a brand name and hope that it was available on the shelf rather than just write "Pregnancy Test"? Why write it down at all? Certainly if she whispered it to Glenn, he'd remember to pick up THAT choice item.

Thank you! I had to skip over it. I know it's NPR and all, but it was too much. Although they connected it to "The Marriage Plot" it really was tangential at best.

Wait, you actually watched this? Submit your workman's comp report to Todd immediately.

There is a Canadian show called "Outlaw In Laws" where the therapist is consistent throughout the show and since the show is an hour long, there is much more thoughtfulness about the family involved.

So glad to see Chekov's Dishwasher pay off big time.

I read it this past summer and while I totally enjoyed it (even the over the top Kiwi parts) I just didn't picture it as an HBO series. Are they going to have more wacky adventures with the underworld and the darkest amusement park in Florida?

Doesn't mean I need to like it. It's my Constitutional right as an American to  dislike annoying things.

Incidentally, my three year old son calls her Baby Gaga.

I just want to thank Libby for being out there so I'm not alone in my dislike for Cheryl Hines's character on Suburgatory. I was beginning to think I was the only one who thought she was super over the top.

Of course Tina Fey wouldn't get the thumbs up from Fox. She's only the most renowned Sarah Palin impersonator in the world.

Wait, what?! There's a GERMAN "All in the Family?"
