THANKSGIVING WEEK TELEFLUVIA

In discussing the reference to James Bond in a recent episode of 'How I Met Your Mother', I used the relevant screen capture which showed a man wearing a monocle.

We never found out who he is in the show, but what if it turned out that he was related to the Wimsey family of England?

Why does Sarah Jane Smith have to keep meeting the current Doctors? Why can't there be episodes in which she and her Scooby Doo Gang meet the Doctors played by at least Sylvester McCoy and Paul McGann? Sylvester doesn't look too different from his tenure in the TARDIS, and a pork-pie hat would take care of any... erm, follicle discrepancies. As for McGann, we never saw him regenerate, so he could have aged to any point when we encounter him again.

I would have thrown Peter Davison into the suggestion blue box, but the change in his appearance might have been too drastic. At least in "Time Clash", it was splained away as the effects of being in close proximity with another incarnation.

When it was announced that Bristol Leadfoot Palin was still on the show, but that Brandy was voted off, some guy aimed his gun at the TV and blew out the picture screen. Then he pointed it at his wife. This sort of behavior is wrong, people. What kind of sick bastard would take aim at a TV set?

I'm actually kind of happy that Bristol Palin might win. So many people on FB have been saying that they would never watch 'Dancing With The Stars' ever again. I support anything that might open time slots for shows that need actors, directors, and writers!

On the Toobworld timeline, the second season finale of 'Bored To Death' took place on either November 6 or 7th of this year between 11am – 7pm at the Brooklyn Lyceum.

Imagine some old lady tuning in to 'Castle' last week just as Detective Kate Beckett said, "Let's just stick it in and get this over with." (She was talking about a computer disk.)

I watched a horrible TV movie from 1973. "The Manchu Eagle Murder Caper Mystery". I couldn't help myself; I had to see how it ended. So many good people involved, many with 'Columbo' connections, and yet nobody seemed to notice how bad the script was. Maybe because it was written by the director (Dean Hargrove) and the star (Gabriel Dell). The 'Columbo' connections: Hargrove, Nicholas Colasanto (once again playing a bartender, like in 'Cheers'), Anjanette Comer, Will Geer, Joyce Van Patten, Sorrell Brooke, and Nita Talbot. But also Huntz Hall, Jackie Coogan, Vincent Gardenia, and Dick Gautier.

Entertainment reporter Nellie Andreeva has a last name that would have made a great name for a Tenctonese in 'Alien Nation'. There's a show that should be back, but NOT updated. A continuation of the original, okay. But not a remake.

Have a great Thanksgiving!

BCnU!
