Either the market or the year. I can recognize "Sunshine Superman" and "Mellow Yellow." I've heard OF "Hurdy Gurdy Man" and "Jennifer Juniper" and "Season of the Witch." I may have heard a few seconds of the last one in a movie. *blink blink* *checks* Apparently, a long, long time ago, in elementary school, we sang, in chorus, a piece of "Happiness Runs." I remembered the lines "Happiness runs in a circular motion" and "Why, Oh, because." (And "happiness runs, happiness runs.") I'm well aware we didn't do the whole song because most of the lyrics online are completely unfamiliar to me. It would not surprise me to find that they'd changed what few lyrics we did use.

Are you ready yet? George

Post more. George

I'm not particularly good at this one. FREE POST George

Seriously? Sunshine Superman, Mellow Yellow, Hurdy Gurdy Man, Catch the Wind, Colours, Jennifer Juniper, Season of the Witch, Happiness Runs, Barabajagal... I must have lived in a very different market

"Now, would you like to learn to shoot?" "I can already." "Oh, I saw. Very American. Fire enough bullets and hope to hit the target." "I may have been overly rude earlier... when I called you a pirate." "And I may have been overly charitable... when I said I wasn't. But I try to live in the now... where the ghosts of old wrongs do not abide."

If we're talking Donovan, only 2 songs ever appear on my radar, ever. I don't think I've ever heard even a 3rd song of his air.

Ah. Of course, now I had to go back and see which one had "The" in the title. (THE second one.) At any rate, WW's up. George

My typo was actually a subtle hint. Was it Movie I saw and regret (Suicide Squad) or was it THE movie I saw (The Suicide Squad) and regret a little less?

Yeah, I get your point and agree. But, I mean, the song repeats that same one line 14 times! Heh. That's pretty noteworthy, in and of itself.

The trick to this thread (and Flicks Remembered from One Line) is that some song (or movie) that may be a favorite of yours is not on anybody else's radar. Songs (or movies) like that are better suited to Name That Tune (or Flick). This is not a ding on Waysider, who seems to have an almost encyclopedic knowledge of popular music. (Heck, he even knew "You Never Even Called Me by My Name," which would be well known to those interested in C&W but out of the wheelhouse of our other regulars.) George

The second one is correct. Raf can say which one he regretted watching more. George

Hail, Atlantis

I've been watching "Voyager" for the first time. Now I've seen her playing a Q. I always thought it was interesting that Dr Selar was on the Enterprise-D for its whole mission (AFAIK), but we only SAW her once, in "the Schizoid Man", working on the away mission to Dr Ira Graves. ("You don't remember anything? 'To know him is to love him is to know him?????' ") Officially, there were 3 doctors on duty on the ship, and we never seem to have met the third. (Pulaski did not serve at the same time as Crusher.) We saw Dr. Hill mentioned in "Remember Me", and Dr. Hacopian mentioned in "Genesis", but neither was ever seen. But she was mentioned in dialogue from time to time. That's a reliable method for television- you don't have to pay an actor, just mention the character from time to time, and we know they're still around. We had the same thing in "I Love Lucy" with Mrs. Trumbull. We saw her quite a bit for a few seasons once Little Ricky was born. She first appeared to complain about the noise and that the lease specified 'no children', and by the end of the episode morphed into his babysitter. She appeared in different capacities here and there after that- like when the Hollywood talent scout showed up, and she was one of the people who wandered into the apartment trying to audition, dressed like a Spanish señorita. Whenever the Mertzes left the building to travel with the Ricardos, we heard a line of dialogue that Mrs. Trumbull was watching the building. On the cross-country drive, she was the one who packed their picnic basket. On the European trip, Fred spoke to her on the phone once, but we only saw his side of the conversations. And when they all moved to Connecticut in the last season, she had agreed to collect the rent, and her nephew had moved in to act as the building's super. But they didn't have to pay the actress. For that matter, Carol Ann Susi never appeared on camera on "The Big Bang Theory," but we heard her yell a lot (We saw her arm once, but that was it.) When the actress passed away, the show bought some time by having her leave town and speak to Howard on the phone, while they figured out what they wanted to do with the character. *checks* If you ever saw the episode of "Everybody Loves Raymond" where we met Robert Barrone's ex-wife Joanne (aka "Cinnamon"), Suzie Plakson played her, too. She had a bunch of other roles, also.

That's how I still think about it. I read otherwise the other day, and it's going to take a while for that to sink in, and some practice.

I kinda saw the first one, and I don't remember seeing Bloodsport there, so, QED, the second one. Explains why I had so much trouble recognizing the lines.

Ah, but which one? George

It always rhymed with "Ruth" in my head. I'd never heard it out loud. George

I always liked Plakson. Funny. She was a Klingon, Keh-lar (or however it's spelled); a Vulcan, Selar; and a Q (Q-lar?). I haven't watched HIMYM. Maybe I should. George

No, no.... it was"SUICIDE SQUAD"!

Rhymes with "south", that is correct! With the movie "Scott Pilgrim (etc)", we can go from DC to Marvel or vice versa, with one evil ex played by Chris Evans and another played by Brandon Routh. To say nothing of Envy Adams (Scott's evil ex), who was played by Bree Daniels.

Hm. How about "Birds of Prey and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn"? Or something close to that? I'm working from memory, here.

You have the right characters but the wrong episode. This was called Reunion. Worf learns he has a son, and the baby mama learns Worf's dad was innocent. She pays with her life when Duras kills her and Worf straight up kills Duras in the most "this is not your father's Star Trek" moment to date. So the reason this episode popped into my head was: The woman who plays Alexander's mother, Worf's super hot Klingon babe, is none other than... Marshall's Mom from How I Met Your Mother! WOW that's an actress. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0686442/mediaviewer/rm835094016/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk
