Re: It Got By The Censor/In Jokes

Sorry Dobie and Ivan, as much as I enjoy discussing Dutch angles among other great topics here, I’m not a Norris fan. Lost all respect for the man when he promoted the Obama birther conspiracy theory. He also later supported Roy Moore, so it would be less than no respect, if that were possible. I re...

Re: It Got By The Censor/In Jokes

That’s really interesting about preferring silent films before subtitles. I had no idea either. I understood that the actors didn’t always follow the inter titles, but thought they were generally expressing the emotion of the scene with whatever felt best. I know that in some cases you can see that ...

Re: The Andy Griffith Show

On the episodes "Aunt Bee The Juror" and "Opie Finds a Baby", a future superstar Oscar winner appears. Can you name that actor? The first to respond gets a coupon good for a Tuesday night blue plate special dinner with all the fixings and a bottle of pop at the Mayberry diner, served by the fair Ju...

Re: What are you reading?

Right now I'm reading "Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI" by David Grann. I was interested in reading the book because I did a remediation project up in Osage County, around where the murders took place, and I worked with the Osage Nation, since they still own t...

Re: No More Mr. Nice Guy (4.13)

This idea that 22 episodes is a lot and it's hard to keep up with ideas is such a modern excuse. It was the norm for decades. This modern era of 6-8 episode seasons of shows has made everyone soft. Simply adding women to a show has never worked to hold female attention. Magnum was never conceived a...

Re: No More Mr. Nice Guy (4.13)

I saw this last night and noticed on this thread that I gave it my worst score ever (6 - pretty bad) when I re-watched this 10 years ago but I didn't comment, so I'll remedy that now: I hate everything about the Carol Baldwin character ! From her relentless lies/manipulation to her fake "drunk acti...

Re: Hawaii Five-O: Any Fans?

I just watched the excellent season four episode Cloth of Gold and wondered how it might have been updated for the new series. I know they remade Hookman and would love to have seen this one done as well. The remake series was actually very awesome as well…which is rare for a past popular series! T...

Re: Is the reboot cancelled again?

Friends, Seinfeld, and Cheers finales came after, so MPI would have been in the top five when it aired.

Thanks

Re: Is the reboot cancelled again?

Well, hopefully for the people that actually like and watch it they get can take some solace in knowing it's actually ending. The original's ending couldn't have been more perfect and is still in the top five most watched television events ever. Really? I never knew the original MPI's finale was a ...
