I did not like it when they showed it to us in elementary school, but as an adult I love it. I think you need to know some history and culture of France to enjoy it and kids can't really know that stuff before middle school.
"From mid Season 3 onward might as well called it That Pot Smoker's Show."
Yep, that's exactly what it became. I didn't watch it in first run, but I've been watching it for the last few months and the smoking in a circle gag has gotten old. Kitty and Red would have known that was going on in their own basement! They weren't inattentive parents. 🙄
Pre-Amy was the best. I always wanted to see Sheldon with a non-nerdy girl. Of course, It wouldn't be realistic, but so what.... it's a sitcom!
Don't like it, but I see it's use in science and engineering. I could not and would not ever learn to use it in cooking or crafting. I still think there's merit in learning via rote memorization and that's what it takes to learn the English system of measurements.
Yes and I loved the Saturday morning cartoon when I was a kid. The strip is predictable, but sometimes it's lol funny. Plus, Mondays still suck and lasagna is still good! 😀
You aren't supposed to care about her, you are supposed to care about the second Mrs. DeWinter. It's her story. Maybe that's the one thing that's missing from the movie. In the novel the new Mrs. deWinter is telling you the story in the first person and her first name is never revealed.
There's nothing missing in the movie because the novel doesn't have any sex in it either. The reveal of what happened to Rebecca is slightly different in the book, but the film follows the book almost to the letter. I agree that the plot of the Maltese Falcon is lacking due to Hollywood's censoring, but there were a lot of film adaptations in the production code era that didn't make any sense because they couldn't spell out what really happened.
Rebecca is one of the few film adaptations where the book and movie are on equal footing; in most cases one is much better than the other. Rebecca is both one of my favorite books and one of my favorite movies.
They were both fantastic in their roles. Milner was a known commodity when the show started, McCord was not.
I agree. I also don't like Ben Affleck, but he's probably not "acclaimed". For one who's actually acclaimed I'd say Meryl Streep. I don't hate her, but she's overrated and that Golden Globes political speech was nuts. Never got the hype over George Clooney, either.
Yes to all except department store catalog, but I get catalogs in the mail all the time. My "cable" is actually satellite, but I assume you meant either. Why would anyone get rid of their old photo albums? What did you do with pictures?
Gunsmoke. Bonanza was a cartoon compared to Gunsmoke.
Yes. There are some bad episodes thru out the 20 seasons, but it's a pretty consistently good series til the end.
No I care about breaking up monotony with a variety of action.
Basketball breaks up the monotony of running up and down the court with actually making a basket, not to mention 3 point shots and free throws.
Lol! WTF?
Because it's dull. All they do is run up and down the field. It's fine for little kids, but not for adults.
It's pretty good. I loved it in the 1980s and read the novelization of it many times. I watched it last year for the first time in probably 25 years and was pleasantly surprised at how it holds up. It's better than a lot 80s flicks gen-Xers love.
