It is Ewebanks....I think
The response was...." In the butt."
Or maybe even a Sheila Jackson Lee moment.
Don't care, that islamic attack (of which there are several on the list) makes the rest of the 99 seem so insignificant. The munich stuff should be top 10. Any of the islamic attacks should be top 10, then go to the rest.
Agnes Moorehead was even better. She was one of Orson Welle's Mercury Theater players, played Citizen Kane's mother, also did some amazing work on TV, including one of the best Twilight Zone episodes (playing "Woman" in episode: "The Invaders" (episode # 2.15) 27 January 1961 - the one with the tiny little space men in the back woods cabin).
She also played mother (or nanny?) to John Wayne's Genghis Khan in The Conqueror. The only reason that is of note is that Wayne, Moorehead and Susan Hayward all blamed that film for causing the cancers that killed them. They were filmed downwind from the above ground nuclear tests and they stood and watched them go off, and all of them remembered the dust clouds drifting over them and dropping on them on set.
Ralph Kramden as "The Man from Mars."
Ann Sothern was? I thought it was Edie Adams.
I got in trouble with my wife for shouting "Shut up, Walter" at one point. I think it was during the Vietnam stuff. I had to change the channel once they got to Cronkite's McCarthy commentary...
He also did one? I knew about Edward R. Morrow's ax job on Joe, but didn't hear that Cronkite did one too.
Sure it is insignificant, but people are having fun here.
Ha!
Unlikely top-100 choices:
How 'bout when everybody on Sesame Street saw Mr. Snufalupagus for the first time?
Or when The rabbit finally got to eat some Trix?
Or Ashley Judd's Au Natural at the Oscars?
Or Madonna on David Letterman?
Who could forget The Oklahoma City bombing aftermath?
Or the Branch Dividiens?
Remember when Morton Downey Junior had the criminal handcuffed and carried offstage by the police?
Or the guy who memorized the patterns On "Press Your Luck?"
Or Pete Rose breaking the all-time hits record?
The fall of the Berlin wall?
Oh well, I could go on forever.....LOL
Aren't they the same person. Have you ever seen them in the room together at the same time?
:-)
Remember the Wide World of Sports intro where the ski jump guy goes flying off the side of the jump? I can still see that... "the agony of defeat!"
Don't see how that's possible since one of them is a little bit dead.
I know, but I can't tell which one.....
MLK shot.
I think half the things I remember from TV are from the Seinfeld shows.
There has to be a punchline here.
---"I think half the things I remember from TV are from the Seinfeld shows."--
I'm the same with the Simpsons.
When Mrs. Emma Peel's husband came back from the dead and she drove off with him, I about was in tears. It scarred me for life. :^D
