As long as the rule against perpetuities isn't violated, then yes, yes they will.

My initial guess is that90% of Earth-2 is left-handed, which made the Eraser-Mate ink pen obsolete much more quickly. After all, no one likes an ink-written letter with smudges every inch or so across the notebook.

1985
So Christopher Lloyd is involved in another time-travel story centered around the year 1985. I guess he can claim fee simple absolute on that plot line.

Dammit, if I knew there'd be a test on this show, I'd have paid more attention.

Nobody could take the Lord's name in vain like Peter Finch.

Seconded on the Newhart finale. Great ending.

"Everybody else is watching it. Why not us?"

I didn't mean to start a fight over the fighters of foo. I like some of their stuff, but replacing the signature saxophone lick with a guitar just doesn't work. I mean, the original is tightly embedded with the time and place. A metallized remake of this song just doesn't work, for the same reasons a lot of other

I guess I'll be the contrarian. I love the original version of "Baker Street". Maybe it's more for the nostalgia of what I remember from that time, but it certainly isn't *bad* in its own right.

"Dear Mr. President,

"Um, Santa = Dad."

The world's most expensive couples trust exercise
In between all of the highlights of the show, I felt like I was watching something a marriage counselor would make up to build trust between the two. Create some strain and an incentive for money, and watch the uncomfortable tension unfold.

Well, Cracker had some 80s tie-ins because of David Lowry's former band. I was a bigger fan of "What the World Needs Now", but it seems "Low" has become the standard from the catalogue on adult alternative radio today. One-hit or cult fav, it's hard to tell.

The Sneaker Pimps had a pretty cool song (it may have been in '96) called "6 Underground". A ghostly song with a hip hop drum track and an excellent female vocal.

I'm impressed.
This is a two-hour epic (and I'm not from Texas). The first hour tells a story of a puckish program whose boosters say "everybody is doing it, why not us?" to stick it to the SWC rivals.

A fitting end, if it has to be
Given all of the meta material about changes in crime-fighting (in the TV world, I mean), the show seemed to be very self-aware of its conclusion.

Loved this episode
I liked how they dealt seriously with the emotional after-effects of Olivia's experience. After seeing the previews, I was thinking the episode was going to bring back flashbacks because of Olivia's near dissection for parts, but they took a better angle on her post-trauma.

Blood Eagle
For what it's worth, Wikipedia describes something similar to what's described in the show, though there's doubt about whether the ritual was real or legendary.

Not one of the better episodes
I wasn't buying the melodrama. It's hard to care about a character we've never seen, and the ways we're shown that Sam isn't normal Sam - the straying of the crosshairs at the cop's head, the water instead of mohito were trite. (And in general, I think the whole Sam-the-drinker quirk
