[cyborg]

Haaaaahahaha

[Maigrey]

That was such a great moment!

[Alissa]

Oh come on, that was funny - I didn't think it was Bush bashing.

[Alissa]

Oh come on, that was funny - I didn't think it was Bush bashing.

[lainie]

Now that's funny.

[rintense]

HAHAHAHA! Janet boob reference!

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

Patty Duke had a brief affair with Desi Arnaz Jr while he was only 17 years old (she thought he was older).

She was the President of Screen Actors Guild (SAG) from 1985 through 1988.

She married ,Micheal Tell, during a manic attack. The marriage only lasted 13 days.

She married John Astin on August 5, 1972. Their sons Sean and Mackenize Astin are both actors. They divorced in 1985.

[BigWaveBetty]

[AgentEcho]

No, they divorced in '85.

[Central Scrutiniser]

Is it just me, or is anyone else sick of Billy Crystal's smug "don't you just think I'm great?" schtick?

Bleah....bring back Steve Martin, much better.

[mass55th]

These songs sound like Doug From Upland could have written them.

[lainie]

Kelly Lynch

yikes

[mollynme]

Actually, Patty Duke has been married for 17(?) years to a Michael Pearce.

[Not A Snowbird]

Priceless! This is good.

[AnnaZ]

Has anyone even mentioned that Spalding's still missing?! (Hudson/East River, anyone?)

[HairOfTheDog]

I want an MPEG of this whole intro bit!

This is a great show so far. I am glad I don't boycott entertainment. Once in awhile they are really good.

[rintense]

Mackenize Astin was the annoying kid in the later Facts of Life episodes.

[Petronski]

I couldn't disagree more. Props to Steve Martin, but Billy Crystal was born for this gig.

[BlueAngel]

He mentioned The Passion has brought in 117 million since Ash Wednesday.

[Trinity_Tx]

Here's the only pic of Liv Tyler (who played a beautiful Arwen in LOTR too, btw) on the thread I think:

It doesnt show much, but from what I saw, she looked very classy. (tho her giggly demeanor in the interview kind of ruined the effect)
