Good lord, there are a lot of old tv-movies on youtube.

From other things I’ve read, the town was small enough that they didn’t have their own police. This was one corner of a large county with a small sheriff’s office, and the sheriff’s main involvement was (more than once) giving the ever-so-helpful suggestion to “keep an eye on him” with a neighborhood watch.

You’re welcome. I remember seeing news reports about it when I was a kid, where they referred to him as “a local bully” as a euphemism for all that. I couldn’t believe it when I finally got around to looking up the specifics online.

You missed the very first one that came to my mind - “In Broad Daylight” (1991), with Brian Dennehy and Cloris Leachman. It was a terrible TV movie based on the fascinating and profoundly fucked up story of Skidmore, MO.

It was almost identical to the cut they used a couple episodes earlier, to show Kim taking a 5 minute power nap in her car.

“Tyrion Lannister is now a writer in Canada.”

Way, way late to the party, but hats off to the Homicide reference. I loved that show so damn much.

On a related note, in the last few years there have been a handful of Colonel Sanders comic books, set in the DC Universe. They are surpisingly weird and entertaining, and last I checked they were free on comixology.

I had the same thought. If I hadn’t already known who it was, I would’ve sworn it was Carvey behind that beard.

I’d heard it done with Emily Dickinson and the “Gilligan’s Island” theme.

Oddly, I got hooked on the series after Sword of Shannara was assigned in a 9th grade English class. I was furious at that teacher a couple years later when I finally got around to Fellowship of the Ring.

Sweet Jesus, why did I just google that?

This intrigues me, but doesn’t Saga need an ending first?

Yes, it starts in September 1958, according to the label on Midge’s bootleg party record (and a couple other things).

I haven’t gotten a chance to make my run this week (stupid time with friends and family), but I’m really excited for this one.

Ha, knowing Forge there’s probably about a thousand high-tech doodads that can pop out of that wrench like a giant Swiss Army knife.

Honestly, I never got the hatred for their pizza. It’s not really my first choice, but I always thought it was far better than most of the giant chain pizza places

It shouldn’t be a movie, so much as a long string of really weird and awesome scary drawings.

Tamaki’s run has really grown on me, though the messing with titles and numbers bothers me more than it should, for some reason.

Neither have I, but like I said, God willing it stays that way.
