I like to pretend Fred Ward is playing Reacher, and the film stays at #1 for four weeks in 1991.

It won an Emmy for Outstanding Comedy Series. That gives it some street cred.
THE MONKEES is one of the best sitcoms of the 1960s (admittedly, a dire decade for situation comedy), right behind THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW and GET SMART.
I think Glen Campbell played it, but I'm not positive. Had to have been one of the Wrecking Crew.
Because there are very few entertainers working today with the skills needed to host one and almost none available to guest.
This show would be a LOT better if it ditched most of the filmed pieces (Glick can stay) and concentrated on the chemistry and excitement of a live(-to-tape) broadcast. While Rudolph and Short really don't click together, both are talented live performers who have the ability to read an audience and be entertaining.…
I will happily bet 100 quatloos on that. Nobody will even remember the name John Mulaney in 20 years, much less revere his terrible sitcom. See you in 2036 to collect my winnings..
Ha. Me too. I never know about low-profile movies or new TV series until they're cancelled.
Wow.
Door number two.
Don't get carried away with that Oscar nominee thing. I mean, Jonah Hill has two Oscar nominations.
Zinc Oxide and You!
I found a fan edit that removed most of the dumb stuff and the terrible musical score from DOC SAVAGE: MAN OF BRONZE, and the result…is pretty good. Watchable for sure, and definitely better than the theatrical cut.
JOHN CARTER and THE LONE RANGER were bad movies that were marketed poorly (a dead bird on Johnny Depp's head???). I don't think the characters are to blame for their films' lack of box office.
There should be zero comedy involving Doc Savage, who has no sense of humor. The humor comes solely from the byplay among his sidekicks.
Savage has no discernible sense of humor, and it seems unlikely, given their past work, that The Rock and Shane Black will be able to do this without a lot of wink-wink-hey-this-is-dumb snark. If they can keep their we're-too-cool-for-this in check, I think both are well suited to the material.
RIP Paula Patton's career
Don't forget TIME EXPRESS, which was the exact same show as FANTASY ISLAND, except it had time travel.
It was a Disney show about a pirate teaming up with "Skid" Mark McCormick to solve crimes, but I wouldn't call it a kids show.
The first 10 or 12 MAGNUM, P.I.s had a different theme song by Ian Freebairn-Smith. It was replaced by the familiar Mike Post theme in syndication, but the DVDs have the original theme.
