"That's charging all the way!...Get that...BUM a pair of glasses!"

"Pop quiz, hotshot! You've got a maniac with a hostage and gun...whaddaya do? WHADDAYA DO?" /Speed

Proof that with age comes wisdom.

Not necessarily. Morons come in all ages, and so does decency.

Both of the Sci-Fi offerings were okay but Threshold on CBS looked a bit more visually interesting than NBC's Fathom.

Don't think the Jennifer Love Hewett "Look, I'm a Psychic just like that blonde Arquette girl" show is going to last too long but I kinda liked it.

My Name Is Earl will probably do well but I didn't think much of it.

ABC looks like it will have a high mortality rate.

As far as I know NCIS is on the schedule but it has never been a big draw.

Well i think his performance in waterworld was a bit better than in Super Mario Brothers the Movie....

"He was walkin' evil in Blue Velvet. I still have bad dreams about him!"

As I'm sure you've figured out from some of the posts, a lot of us loved the dialogue in that movie, crude as it was. In some ways, the movie was almost a black comedy. I read somewhere that, during the filming, David Lynch was in hysterics on the set as Hopper played the "F" word every which way. If they bleeped all the foul language and nudity in that movie, it would be five minutes long.

I know but it's the spinoff from JAG which was the same way and lasted 10 seasons.

Thanks for the update.
