I'm a fan of Boreanaz, but the casting of Angel and Rocky will decide my allegiance.
Hollywood Reporter

quote:

Like the original, The Rockford Files will center on the recently paroled (for a crime he didn’t actually commit) private investigator Jim Rockford who “uses his charm and wit to solve cases around Los Angeles,” per the show’s logline. “It doesn’t take long for his quest for legitimacy to land him squarely in the crosshairs of both local police and organized crime.”
quote:

Mike Daniels (Sons of Anarchy, NBC’s The Village) is writing The Rockford Files and will executive produce with Carl Beverly and Sarah Timberman. Chris Leanza is co-EP, and Boreanaz is a producer.
He's a national treasure.

Large screen with soundbar is the only way to watch that!
When The Right Stuff was in the multiplexes, you'd be in the next theater watching a different movie and then suddenly you'd hear the muffled roar of John Glenn reentering the atmosphere.

would've liked to have seen what Hop Sing could do. Or some of those laundry men if they got really pissed off at someone who didn't want to pay their bill.
Cocksucker!

That line was ad libbed and the director and producer decided to keep it.
Danny Aiello didn’t have a line so he blurted that out to get a movie credit. Most directors would’ve fired him.

Played by music legend Levon Helm, drummer and lead singer of The Band.
He gives himself away when he cuts off that section of broom handle and does a drummer’s stick spin with it before tucking it inside his jacket.

I bet you can’t watch this movie just once.

Come on, twenty bucks, come on man.
Give Cavill every franchise.

Hee Haw
Back in my youth I had a job pumping diesel at a big truck stop. On Saturdays the big rigs would file in to fill the parking lot so that the drivers could congregate in the TV lounge to watch Hee Haw.
I was in 7th grade when that first ABC Wednesday Movie of the Week pilot aired. Man we loved us some bionic man.
Murderer's Row of 60s Sitcoms.

And Joey Bishop.

We watch the new SNLs on Sunday on Peacock (because WVLA is notorious for chopping off bits of the show during the commercial breaks).

It's almost never funny through and through, but there are usually bits that make watching worthwhile (as always, it depends on the host).

People that think that there were seasons where the show was wall to wall funny, please watch the SNL Vault on Pluto and Roku. They stream clips based on themes, not for entertainment value. You get to see the best casts in the worst skits imaginable. Makes you wish that the SNL Vault was a "best of" channel.

+1 to the poster earlier that said these episodes fly by. They really do. You start the episode and 10 minutes later the episode is over.
And they don't follow the standard drama format of building to a conclusion or a cliffhanger, so the ending is always abrupt and leaving you wanting more. :cheers:

Would’ve been a better movie if Sofia had directed and Francis had played the daughter.

For goodness sakes, it starts with a "Z", people.

"Zoo York? No, that wasn't it."

"Zos Angeles? No..."

"Zilwaukee. shite, what was the fricking name."

You must not have a wife over 50 or you'd be familiar with the Brad Pitt Marital Sex Catalyst Theorem.

I read the book over the summer on account of some strong recs from this board, and very much enjoyed it.

Pumped for the movie, but I an thinking that maybe the audiobook is a good idea, as well. Lots of people have mentioned that the audio is the best way to enjoy the story.
I really enjoyed the audio book but I'm extremely glad that I read it first. I don't care how great an audio book is (and this is the best), the author intended for the book to be read. A man reading to me in a woman's voice will always take me out of the story.

But now :yack:




What the frick are you watching where that pops up out of nowhere? A million hours of content out there and you frickers "happen" onto all the gay stuff.

They don’t film many movies in L.A. these days but this is one that shot a bunch around my neighborhood.
Man, if they come close to recreating 1977 in the way that Tarentino did with 1968 in Once Upon a Time, I'll be in hog heaven.

Remember what 76 year olds looked like when we were kids?
They looked like handsome old men and not douches coloring their hair to try to pass for 40.
