No Rover Dangerfield but there are three whole chapters on Ladybugs.

Bubble Bobble.

Yeah, the lead doesn't have to be someone you actually believe can read a dozen ancient languages but it should be someone who looks like they're having fun while pretending to do so.

Well, that's how every episode of Columbo started out and those were chock full of real horror.

Netflix Streaming
Don't know if it's been mentioned, but the whole run of the series is available on netflix streaming. Definitely worth your time if you're into noir but never gave it a chance in syndication.

Yes. The wealthy dowager is so shocked that she faints.

I have a hard time believing that someone who calls themselves "Trackball" isn't enamored with the rough charms of the old-school, funky, funky fresh, clumsy rhyming.

Five Boroughs didn't out and out suck. There were some great beats on there. All of those "George Bush is a bad president" rhymes aren't exactly timeless though.

You're all forgetting the perfect, sparkling gem that is Heaven Can Wait.

They had Tetris.

It IS about more than just getting drunk people to fight
It's about getting drunk people to make out in hot tubs as well.

I'll buy that. There's a lot of great stuff on there (Somebody Got Murdered, Police on My Back, Up in Heaven) , a lot of bloat (basically all of the dubs), some great weirdness that has them overreaching their genre-hopping grasp (Rebel Waltz, Sound of the Sinners, Hitsville UK), and some utter crap. If Mensforth…

Make it a gay robot vampire with an unsatiable thirst for oil and you've got my ten bucks.

Hey, I like Bubble Bobble too!

I'm pretty sure Pat Buchanan has exposed himself during the McLaughlin Group.

Pinfield?
Bring back Dave Kendall and his wig!

Sorry. To his credit, Serafonawicz does a pretty amazing Alan Alda impression.

Huh?
I find it very hard to believe that any studio would scrap a project illuminated by the megawatt star power of Cary Elwes AND Peter Serfonawicz!
