Members Steve Posted January 5, 2013 Members Share Posted January 5, 2013 Thanks for posting this! I hadn't seen the Swiss remote since I was a teen and it looks as suspenseful as I'd remembered. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted January 6, 2013 Members Share Posted January 6, 2013 That poor kid who played Jamal has to deliver a lengthy anti-drug message Nancy Reagan would have been proud of. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uM2wk3RkMK8 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted January 6, 2013 Members Share Posted January 6, 2013 That's the first Jamal. The second Jamal played Loretta Devine's son on A Different World. Of course adult Jamal was Marcus Patrick. The "funny" thing is, how many kids even saw this message? I mean, I guess there were kids like me who watched with their parents/grandparents, but I don't feel like I was the norm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 6, 2013 Members Share Posted January 6, 2013 I keep forgetting that awful actor played Jamal at the end (Marcus Patrick). I guess they may have been going for the younger teens who might have been watching. It's an interesting idea, through the drug addiction story, to have Timmy assumed as being right and good, and Jamal assumed as being in the wrong. I didn't think the whole speech part worked too well though. That was Tom's house, right? Had that been the place he'd lived in with Barbara too? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted January 6, 2013 Members Share Posted January 6, 2013 (edited) I don't really remember that set, I must admit. It was one of AMC's more generic sets, not unlike Trevor and Natalie's house, or even Mona and Dr. Tyler's for that matter. As a mixed kid myself, I remember thinking that Jamal #1 looked more mixed than Jamal #2 when it was revealed that he was Alec's son (a development when Jamal #2 was already in the role).

Members SFK Posted January 6, 2013 Members Share Posted January 6, 2013 Just had a flashback, I do in fact remember the Tom/Livia set if only for one reason: Livia on the sofa mulling over the sheet music for "Just a Closer Walk with Thee" that she was going to sing at Natalie's funeral. I missed the next day's funeral episode, finally seeing it after many years thanks to someone who shared it here at SON only weeks ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Pine Charles Posted January 6, 2013 Members Share Posted January 6, 2013 That was me. I don't remember Jamal #1; he seemed OK. I wonder why the recast..? Jamal #2 (the one I remember) was decent, though, so it's not a big deal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted January 6, 2013 Members Share Posted January 6, 2013 Yeah, he was fine, though I did wonder why he was replaced back then. Jamal #2 was in the role for a longer period of time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 6, 2013 Members Share Posted January 6, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dF9kQdh2mFw Strike story alert! So did you enjoy this story? Larkin Malloy looks a lot hotter here than he usually did on AMC. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VagVmKYs29Y 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted January 7, 2013 Members Share Posted January 7, 2013 I'm not sure whether I care for the story in question, if only b/c (unless I'm getting things mixed up) it put Travis and Erica's relationship on the road to ruin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members danfling Posted January 7, 2013 Members Share Posted January 7, 2013 That actor playing Jamal reminds me a lot of soul singer Victor Allen. Was Tad on the show at this time? I am suprised at his absence in a drug storyline. I am also suprised that there was no flashback of Francesca James as Kelly singing the song she wrote called "Colored Lights." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EnglishTea Posted January 7, 2013 Members Share Posted January 7, 2013 This material is approaching (if not already hit) the writers strike of 1988, so it a little murky. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
