A very youthful Jonathan Banks is on this Perry Mason TV movie right now.

That guy played a bad guy in every single cop show of the 1980s.

Morgan Fairchild was such a piece of ###!

 

[Encyclopedia Brown]

Recognize that actress who guest-starred on a beloved episode of the Sopranos?

Unfortunately.

How are you seeing this? Aren't you an hour behind me?

EB, the black cop who was just talking to Banks.... recognize him without cheating?

I'll check back--I usually watch the late showing of Pawn Stars at this time.

Not a good look to be sobbing on the stand.

So true

 

[Encyclopedia Brown]

"Lost In Space".

Dr. Zachary Smith. He reminds me of Sal from "Mad Men".

I don't know why.

Since you never answered -- he was the bitter baseball coach at Carver High who ran off Nick Vitaglia with his surliness.

I didn't see it. I was watching Corey Harrison negotiate with Snidely Whiplash, and the Old Man struggle to lift his head up.

I've decided that McCloud sucks. He's a whiny little b---ch. Terrible choice for a leading man/tough-guy Marshal role.

I never got into "McCloud" either. If you took away the fish-out-water shtick, it's just a standard cop show.

I don't know how the licensing rights work with these old programs, but there's a long list of 70's cop/private eye shows that Me-TV is sleeping on.

i was thinking about that earlier tonight for some reason. "Barnaby Jones", "Cannon", and "Switch" all kind of came to mind...

Cannon has been running on Me-Too

 

[Encyclopedia Brown]

A movie billed as a "Perry Mason Mystery", but.....with no Perry Mason. (Raymond Burr passed away just a couple of weeks before filming began).

Paulie Cicero takes the case. I hope he doesn't turn his back on Della.

 

[icecat4270]

Watching Banicek now. Not football game episode quality I'm sure but there is a computer that diagnoses illnesses.

Should be a fun ride.

ETA: The computer - wouldn't fit along my living room walls - has been stolen.

Hunter too recent?

Hunter too recent?

I've seen reruns of it but not in a long time.

You now can download Jim Rockford's answering machine messages.

Synopsis of the Perry Mason that's just starting: "A Cockney merchant seaman (Raymond Burr in a dual role) becomes involved in a plot to discredit Perry."

(I did not make that up).

Good stuff. I looked up the airdate--it was one of the last episodes of the final season. The writers were probably running on fumes at that point, and put out any kind of crazy idea.

He did a fine Cockney accent.

Nice ascot on Mr. Banacek in tonight's episode. Stylish.

A favorite part of 70's shows is seeing just how wide ties & suit lapels can get.

And let us not forget the turtle necks.

And pinky rings and white shoes.

 

[Encyclopedia Brown]

On tonight's episode of "Perry Mason": a character drinks and drives/two female characters wear full-length fur coats. And at the courtroom table amidst Perry's briefcase and papers, Della's notepad and pens, is an ashtray filled to the brim with butts.

1957 American television was awesome.

Remember the short-sleeved turtle necks? Though those were more 60s, I guess. IIRC, Coburn wears them in the "Flint" movies.

Those movies were such awesome campy fun.

 

[Raider Nation]

These Columbo episodes are awesome. I can't get enough of them.

 

[Encyclopedia Brown]

Jack Cassidy and Robert Culp were the two best smarmy, obnoxious, villains.

 

[Raider Nation]

Cassidy died a horrific death at age 49, three years after this appearance.

 

[Encyclopedia Brown]

Shirley Jones and David have talked about this. They believe he was so drunk and drugged out that he never felt a thing.

 

[Mr. Retukes]

Cassidy died a horrific death at age 49, three years after this appearance.

Have you ever seen the David Cassidy bio-pic? It features Malcolm McDowell as Jack Cassidy, stealing every scene that he's in.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Interesting that the role of Ted Baxter was written for Jack.

 

[Encyclopedia Brown]

"Quincy" has been added to the lineup. I never really watched this show before.

First impression: that is one god-awful toupee that Klugman is sporting. That's a Morrie's Wigs kind of rug.
