I think it has to do with some ritual at some college where every 4/20 at 4:20 pm a ton of kids get together in a field and spark up weed.

And the worst of the worst? ‘Car 54 Where Are You’ That was the “Plan 9 From Outer Space” of the sitcoms.

Yeh well, they are right in the middle of Cliff Barnes’ daughter or grand daughter (not sure which) helping Cliff to get even with the Ewing family.

I haven’t been able to watch it regularly, but the shows I have seen were pretty good. Especially the scenes with JR. They had one of those behind the scenes interviews the other day, and Linda Gray played a big part in helping him to get well enough to be able to be on the New Dallas.

That was practice for The Munsters. You seem to know a lot about crappy TV. You’ve probably seen every episode many times, just to remind yourself how bad they are.

I think she’s supposed to be Cliff’s daughter that he had with Afton Cooper. Hagman and Linda Gray definitely had a great chemistry together. To me, “Dallas” was never the same when J.R. was without Sue Ellen and Bobby was without Pam. The two couples provided the spice and sugar, respectively, it needed to work IMHO.

This is a recent interview with Morgan Brittany discussing being a conservative in Hollywood-

I prefer to think of him as Maj Nelson. There is nothing cooler than an astronaut with a hot genie!

What a life! He was an astronaut who was married to a genie (they wed in final season) and his Mom (Mary Martin) was Peter Pan! :-)

He was great in some minor roles as the doctor in “The Big Bus,” and the Clymer ambulance driver in “Mother Jugs And Speed.”

He was in a early to mid 70s made for TV movie, don't remember the title, about a group of people planing a heist. The line that still sticks with me for decades ( not sure if it was Hagman’s character who said it ) was “necessity's the mother.”

Hagman was the only character/actor to appear in every episode of the original Dallas series. He was the reason the show was as success. I’ve watched a few episodes with the wife. Hagman was perfect for the part.

He also played Sherlock Holmes in a TV movie in the 70's Here is the TV promo for it. I have a copy of this strange film.

In honor of the memory of Mr. Hagman’s passing, my favorite episode of IDOJ-

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swEa7KpEQC8

It’s the one where his buddy Rog learns the truth about Jeannie, takes the bottle and becomes her new master and gets in more trouble than he expected.

I remember Mary Martin for “South Pacific.” She was a heck of a talent.

Mr. Hagman made his home in California with his wife of 59 years,

Impressive.
