Considering the violence that was supposedly done to her, I don't see any way Avery could have done it.

Can you tape Wrestlemania for me?

Well, most stupid people don't know they're stupid. Though Dassey actually does.

I'm pretty sure if the directors on NAKED CITY with their six-day schedules and $150,000 budgets can shoot on the streets of New York (not to mention LAW & ORDER), then THE GOOD WIFE with their 8-day schedules and $3 million budgets can do it. But why do the work to make it look good when something worse can be CG'ed…

No Hollywood production is ever anywhere without bottled water. At craft services, beside the cast's chairs, in their motor homes. Bottled water is *everywhere* on a set. And how can props assistants be too busy to, you know, do props? If they have to hand the actors the cups, they can put water inside of them.

It's weird these days to see Willis acting in anything that involves him standing or not talking on the telephone.

I'm wondering how long it would take to get water in the cups. My initial unscientific estimate:15 seconds.

If television directors are too lazy to tow a car down the street in front of the studio to film driving scenes that aren't blatantly fake (see: Good Wife, series finale, The), they are sure as hell too lazy to put water in a coffee cup.

Interesting. Considering that Piscopo is today thought of as a big joke, you may be right.

Talk shows were never edited back in the day. It was called shooting "live to tape." They may be now, because the shows are so tightly structured to take the fun out of them, but Carson, Letterman, Cavett, etc. did not edit anything.

I'm a huge Reynolds fan, but what a cock he was that night.

Well said.

No, definitely Pesci. Pollak tells it with a Pesci impression.

I think it was called LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION? Something like that. Nimoy was the host.

Pesci may not have the best sense of humor. Kevin Pollak has a story about Don Rickles laying into Pesci, as he did everyone else, on the CASINO set, and Pesci getting pissed off.

Anything rated PG, like SEARCH AND DESTROY, you saw 42 times, because it ran day and night. TARZAN THE APE MAN, however, you had to stay up until 1:35 a.m. to watch. Do pay cable stations still run R-rated fare only at night?

HBO used to air this doc on occasion. This was during an era in which one-hour specials detailing the making of the STAR WARS and Indiana Jones pictures were airing on the networks, and Nickelodeon had a daily half-hour show about the making of movies. It was fun to look behind the curtain then. Imagine a doc about…

For what it's worth, I believe you.

My first thought was that Murphy wasn't on the show enough to merit inclusion. But I looked it up, and he did 66 episodes. Three it is!

People intentionally or unintentionally misinterpreting things they read on the Internet? Who knew such a thing happened?
