We had it in the late 70s in St Louis. I watched it just about every night when I was in college.

They should have skipped the analysis and just spun her off into "Kalinda Sharma in M Squad". It would have worked just fine.

It probably has something to do with the rise of Bernie Sanders as a Presidential candidate. People heard "socialist", started checking out real socialists like Marx and Lenin and learned all these cool words again.

Prince was one of those rare artists that I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing the first time I ever heard him. It was fall 1979, and I was driving down the main drag in East St. Louis. The AM soul station in St Louis was on the radio, and the DJ announced a record by a brand new artist called "I…

Or humming the theme from that wrestler who used to call himself "Fandango" or as he pronounced it, "Fahnnnnnn-dahnnnnnnnnn-gooooo".

Even the oldies stations will play the long cut now.

You can't copyright a title, but apparently you CAN trademark it, which is what he did.

"Castles in the Air", which charted about the same time as "Vincent". I think it may have even made the country charts. He tried a comeback in '81 covering Roy Orbison's "Crying", which I remember because I was enroute to my Air Force duty station. I pulled into the town outside the base, the song was playing, and…

Thing is, in its top 40 run, his label lopped off the slow opening and closing parts and released the upbeat part as a 4 minute radio edit. I never actually heard the full song until I got the 8-track tape for my birthday.

Granted, I'm an old fart who likes the song "American Pie". But after reading this, I have to freely admit Sean Yeaton is dead on here. Even in 1971, it was a 60s folk singer's equivalent of the old guy standing on his porch yelling "Get off my lawn, you damn kids!"

The money he got from allowing the makers of the "American Pie" films to use the title ensure he's not spending his retirement years eating dog food.

Funny, I didn't know Alderaan had been colonized by West Virginians.

And yet nobody has mentioned that Sofia Vergara's role plays on all sorts of Latina stereotypes, such as being somewhat homicidal because she's Colombian, for instance.

Other conservative pundits were so frightened of her that they urged conservatives to go to the polls and vote against her in the primaries…"Nobody knows anything about this Obama guy, we can beat HIM for sure…"

That was actually intentional. WB had just finished shooting the series finale (the one where Sheridan flies off to eternity) at the end of season four, only to find out they'd just been picked up by TNT. They called the cast to pull together a bizarre season four finale toair in its place. But the main story, for…

OK. I just remember it as being such a shock. It does make sense that Shane would make a call like that on his own.

Two instances in which I probably should have considered it after a character died:
1. Babylon 5 after Marcus died. This was purely coincidental as everyone involved with the show thought they were two eps from cancellation at that point, and the producers were trying to get everything wrapped up, only to get a…

I can't NOT remember that "My Struggle" translates into German as "Mein Kampf".

Or Abdullah the Butcher? A Canadian guy who came as a Sudanese madman who used a fork to pound his opponents bloody.

That is entirely possible and probable.
