I personally boycotted NBC's primetime lineup for years after they cancelled F&G. Not because of the cancellation, per se, but because of the obvious bias then-network president Garth Ancier held against it. It wasn't bad enough that NBC's poor and erratic scheduling doomed the show to bad ratings; according to the show's creator, Paul Feig, Ancier believed "nobody wants to watch a show about a bunch of losers," or words to that effect. :rolleyes:

Depending on who you ask, Good Times WAS NOT!!!!!!!!! a spin-off of Maude. But it definitely was.

And that "boozy British broad" was the great and underrated Hermione Baddeley, who will always be Kezia from Little House to me.

I don't really have much to add here. Everything I want to see, show-wise, I've seen or can see for the most part. There are tons of seasons that I want, though, like Knots 3-14 (or at least 3-10), Dynasty 4-9 (which I'm getting to), Falcon Crest 2-9, Dallas 2-13 (or at least 2-9), etc.

A few random shows just popped into my mind. The mini-series Flambards, the Canadian drama Avonlea (I saw the pilot, and YT has most of the series, but I'm following like 10 shows right now, so it'll have to wait a few years), and Sordid Lives: The Series, which I can't even find torrents of.

Well, it was, and it wasn't.

The original "Black Family" pilot, written by Mike Evans and Eric Monte, existed before the decision to spin the "Florida" character off on her own series. Norman Lear, however, decided to piggy-back the character onto their premise, changing the name of the family from "Black" to "Evans" in the process.

Dexter. I hear its a really good show and its premise seems interesting enough. I dont have Showtime though and never downloaded any episodes from the internet. Its too far into the series now for me to really care. Maybe one day Ill watch it

Big Love. I watched a little bit in the first season but stopped and never got back to it

Well, obviously all the shows I'm watching currently and haven't finished--SFU, KNOTS LANDING, DALLAS, DYNASTY, FALCON CREST, 24, and about another 50.

Of those I have never seen... THE COLBYS, FLAMINGO ROAD, TITANS and I'm sure lots more.

    • And I'm here for it.   Also...YES, PLEASE. 
    • Also, someone knocked over the head (usually in the D Mansion) and imprisoned in the secret tunnel room or whatever it was. I swear that must have happened at least a dozen times the last few years, and each time it drove me crazy! 
    • HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! And here I am rewatching and...

    • 5-9   Honestly? There's nothing going on. And yet unlike Y&R, I'm not bored. But I just think that's because of the acting going on as they play the beats in this Liam dying storyline. Well, that and the outfits.   If there's anything I'm liking it's the continued drama of Daphne going after Carter and not letting anyone get in her way. Not Brooke. Not Katie. NO ONE.    And while I love TK in those glasses, I am not here for a Brooke/Ridge/Taylee triangle.    And of course, Luna would try to use this Liam mess to get closer to Finn.   Okay week.
    • The acting during those Sarah scenes on Friday was horrific.
    • So true. Their hypocrisy is on another level. When Anita called Ted a coward because he used Bill as a fixer, I almost choked on my Ritz. And Dani calling Ted worse than Bill as a husband because Bill never pretended to be a good person? Then why stay with him for decades and continue to kiss up to him, Dani? I was glad when Bill told Anita he wouldn't be her punching bag. Not for me. I can think of 100 other actors who would have smoking hot chemistry with LB. Lindstrom does not. I see zero chemistry. None. Joey isn't sexy or scary.   -- Mona was awesome today. -- Why was Eva playing cards in the back room of the casino? -- Can they make Anita any more sanctimonious and self-righteous? -- Dani said Anita had Ted shook. LOL. Really?       No. But I see what you're trying to do. This is a SOAP OPERA. Characters HAVE to make mistakes and sin and screw up and cheat. That's the deal. I understand the concern that we have 2 leading Black men who have cheated on their wives. I do. But I also understand that this is SOAPS 101. Are we going to hear complaints every time a Black character messes up???    
    • Gone are the days where at least once every week, a character would pull a gun on someone (Ron you really turned gun violence into a joke on this show)
    • Oooooo I like these. I like we are on the same page about Little Brownie Man. And I hope to remember this at the end of June to see how much of it came to pass. I definitely feel that the Eva vs Kat story is about to reaaaally get going.    As for the B/C stories, it's funny you mentioned the Joey/Vanessa/Doug story first. Because out of all of those, it is the only one that has enough structure and build to it that it could keep going as a B story that could eventually climax. I think the only POV we don't have in it is Joey's at this point because Month 2 put in the work to give us Doug's and Vanessa's and they are now circling each other and their relationship. And we still need to know Joey's endgame.   Why we gotta pick on Jacob and Naomi? We need that goody good couple. lol. They talked about how they got together. Mind you, very briefly. But we do need to know a little bit more about both. Something I was hoping we were getting by having them in their own stories....him with the crooked cop, her with the lawsuit...but it didn't turn out as hoped. Hopefully, that won't be the case with June though.   Yeah, I want to see more of THAT Ashley.  I finally had to break down and explain to my manager why I keep laughing every time I see the bottle of Febreze at work. The product placement definitely be working.
