Yep. Taken off the air by ABC after parents complained of its violence.

I remember watching that show as a 7 year old.. or more likely remember thinking the M-16's (or AR-15's) they carried were cool. The theme from SWAT intro music was all I really remember more than any plots or stories.

That may be Tori Spelling, but that's NOT what Tori Spelling looks like. Ahh, the magic of lights, makeup and Photoshop.

Thanks for saying what I was thinking......daughter looks like she was sired by Mr. Ed. Yuck!

Maybe he should have thought twice before getting his bride those riding lessons...

What? How did that come up in conversation?

Tori was talking about the time she and her mother had "the talk" and her mother remarked to her that her father was quite large.

I bet if you downsized her features by about 25%, she'd look pretty good.

Unfortunately for her that can only be done by photoshop....

Unless things changed, she and here dad were not speaking for the past few months and they were not at her new wedding or her reception a few weeks ago.

That's not "almost" homely.
That IS homely.

Didn't Carolyn Jones die really young, like shortly after The Addams Family went off the air?

" "Hart to Hart" had great chemistry between Powers & Wagner."


I watched that show as a little girl... I was hurt to find out they weren't actually married in RL.

Same with Mariette Hartley and James Garner on those commercials they used to do...

I think Anne is a little overly sensitive. Hey, I'm no great looker and don't pretend to be. I just call it as I see it.
So I have to be nice and call Helen Thomas a sexpot? Never gonna happen!

"If a person seems to be a not-so-good person, we pick on their looks AND on their other failings."

Fine and dandy, but Ann's opinion (and mine) is that looks shouldn't be part of it. Can you honestly say that when Freepers were attacking Chelsea Clinton's looks when she was a teen, it was because she had demonstrated her shallowness? Of course not.

"Notorious" is really very funny.

I agree. That show made me like her. She's actually quite funny. (and Loni Anderson as her mother is a hoot!)

Tori Spelling walks into a bar.
The bartender asks, "Say, Why the long face?"
