The Wizard Of Oz is on channel 11 (it started at 7:30pm), and National Lampoons Christmas Vacation (with Chevy Chase) will be on at 9pm on NBC (channel 4)
Dorothy runs away from home, taking Toto with her. Runs into Frank Morgan as Professor Marvel.
Hey, Alan Alda didnt do so bad....doing those Woody Allen films. :-)
And Mike Farrell did get to marry Shelley Fabares. That's what really hurts.
I'll say this much about the series, I liked Jamie Farr.
So did I. I remember him plugging his auto-biography on Rush Limbaugh's tv show. I also remember him as the Sheik in the Cannonball Run movies :-)
Was one of two cast members of the original M*A*S*H television cast to have actually served in the armed forces in Korea; Farr's tour of duty came in the years after the war. Alan Alda served a six month tour as a gunnery officer in Korea.

But,damn it,their campaigns were worth a million laughs!
Male neighbor: "Where do you think you're going to put a tree like that Griswold?"
Clark: "Bend over and I'll show you."
Male neighbor: "How dare you talk to me like that."
Clark: "I wasn't talking to you."
Male neighbor: Glances at his wife.
Lol!
I never knew that.
They must have been surprised when the series wrapped, and they discovered that the war actually lasted a decade.
:_)
I love when he hands Russ the huge tangled mess of lights and says, "Oh, we have a little mess."
My version:
We're off to eat some gizzards,
We're eating gizzards because,
It's the only food we can afford,
While working for Santa Claus....
.Sounds really good after a couple of dry martinis.....
Farr and Alda could have said something, but then they would have been out of a paycheck.
Here's a great touching moment...Clark gets locked in the attic, comes across his family home movies (taken when Clark was a kid). He sits to watch them.
"I'll remember that the next time we choose to take the heels of our boots off of your necks".
True.
Here was my response:
> Fox better re-broadcast Family Guy since the peanuthead President killed it.
Jimmy Carter killed Family Guy? :)
Nope, it was on right after Chris Wallace did a brief summary.
(Remember the All in the Family episode when Archie was supposed to be on "The CBS Evening News"?
ARCHIE: Edith, what channel is the Cronkite news on?
EDITH: Channel 2, Archie; the one we don't watch because you keep saying Walter Cronkite is a Communist.
(Then, just when Archie is about to be on, Pres. Nixon interrupts with a speech.)
MIKE: Probably an important speech about Boy Scout Week.
(After the speech.)
ARCHIE: Wait a minute, the speech is over, who's this?
EDITH: That's Eric Sevareid, Archie. He's on to tell us what the President just said.
Lol! I laugh at that everytime.
"Just dumpin' the sh!tter," is the best line that won't make the NBC version. On second thought, Clark's rant against his boss that includes "dickless" amongst the adjectives, prolly won't make it either.
First time? It would be more like the second time (third time if you count the civil rights struggle of the 50s-60s). And I still have my legs intact so far.
Do you want to tell me just why you claim to honor Republican princples, lacking the first damned clue, of what you are about?
Dont talk to me about redneck principles. Owning slaves, segregation, and I saw that movie about the south: "Deliverance". "Soooieee! Here piggy piggy piggy!" "You shore have a purty mouth".
I can hardly wait to cast my vote against "Rudy" Hilary couldn't be much worse!
You cant vote against Rudy untill Lincoln and Grant gives you permission to do so.
Eddie there in his short bathrobe, cigar in his mouth, beer in one hand, the hose in the other...greeting everyone with "Merry Christmas! Sh!tter was full!".
Your antagonistic attitude is obnoxious and ruining this thread for the rest of us.
