I didn't see it, but I believe the third person was Ralph Garman, Smith's partner on the "Hollywood Babble-on" podcast, and longtime "Family Guy" voice actor. He's also a part of the Kevin & Bean morning radio show in LA, which is where Jimmy Kimmel, Adam Carolla and Carson Daily got their start. Ralph is a very…

Your sacrifice is appreciated by those of us who now know to avoid The Counselor.

I will step up to defend this one. I had avoided seeing it due to the bad reviews, and then I happened to catch it on hotel cable TV one night when I was on vacation. I laughed…a lot. Maybe it was my low expectations, maybe it was the fact that the story didn't attempt to serve any purpose other than absurdity (as…

Loved the episode, and that is all I can say about that.

Tasha took my obvious answer, so I guess my next choice is Tattingers. It's hard to find, though, since nobody remembers that series: http://en.wikipedia.org/wik…

I'm surprised nobody has chimed-in with the NAME of that Howard Cosell variety show: "Saturday Night Live". Yes, indeed — that is why the more-famous Lorne Michaels TV show was originally named simply "Saturday Night". Cosell's ABC show debuted first, so NBC could not use the identical name.

I love this movie! Honestly my favorite silent comedy. "Step right up and call me Speedy!"

Did you ever see her first series, "Flying Blind?" This was the first thing I saw her in (in 1992!), and I thought she was amazing. It ran Sunday nights on Fox at 10:30. It premiered in the same fall season on the same night as another Fox show, "The X-Files", which is why I know about "Flying Blind" in the first…

I recall hearing at the time that DeNiro did not like his experience working on this film and with Alan Parker, and that for Parker, the feeling was mutual.

Love at First Bite is also a really, really great satire of the 1970's. I think it holds up well because of that. It was of the era, but it was also above the era, taking potshots at it. And although the entire cast was terrific, Benjamin positively stole that movie.

"Don't move, or you'll be as dead as that squirrel!"
"What squirrel?"
*BANG*

Gail is so hot that my (ostensibly hetero) wife developed an intense crush on her. No, not a "girl crush", but a predatory sexual desire (unless that's what a girl crush is…I'm not really sure). Perhaps it's fortunate that Gail has been away. I had always adored Padma since her old PBS show, but my wife did the…

This reminds me somewhat of the film "Red Planet", which is half of a really great sci-fi film. I'm referring to the sub-plot where Carrie-Anne Moss, as mission commander, has to survive a disaster on the orbiting command module, and then rig-up a way to get home. Honestly, the story & execution were…

I had read the book "Big Trouble" and was excited for the film, but yadda yadda and they had to change the plot, and so I ended up never seeing it.

Hence the line from Blazing Saddles: "It's 1874…WE'LL be able to sue HER!"

I went to a special screening of YF that featured a live Q&A with Mel Brooks, Teri Garr, Peter Boyle, and much of the crew. According to Brooks, Garr ad-libbed some of those famous lines, such as "You were having a nachtmare!".

Thanks for that, I commented on this anecdote further up the thread, but I couldn't remember where it came from!

Favorite Brooks anecdote related to that: By the time "High Anxiety" was completed, Hitchcock was infirm and basically confined to his bungalow on the Universal backlot. Brooks came down to personally escort Hitchcock to a screening of "High Anxiety" in Hitch's honor.

Oooo…I fell on my keys.

I submit to you the "Assignment Earth" episode of Star Trek (original series), as proof that she has also been adorable in television.
