The episode where he got caught was the last episode of the show. When the dean found out what Hank was doing, he wound up enrolling him, with a scholarship. It was really unusual for a one-season show to resolve all of the plotlines at the end. If they knew the show would end after one season, when did they find out (in order to shoot the final episode)? If not, were they planning to re-invent the show for the second season ( a la "Alias," "Prison Break," "Supernatural," etc.)? "Store-bought soap?? How long do you thing 64 million dollars will last, if we use STORE-BOUGHT SOAP???" George

I remember the show. The guy assumed a different alias for each class. He finally got caught, as I recall, when sitting in for an "Ohara," dressed up like an Irishman, only to find out Ohara was Japanese. He showed up the next day, disguised as a Japanese, only to have the REAL Ohara sitting next to him. :lol: I THINK the show was called "The Drop-In." George

Indeed. Carter Nash invented a power serum. When he drank it, however, it blew up all of his clothes except for his long underwear and his belt, the buckle reading "CN." When asked about it by police, and trying to keep his identity a secret, he said it stood for "Captain Nice" (much to the chagrin of his mother). Mr. Terrific could fly, but he had to flap his arms and cape to do so! As I'm sure WW knows, "The Flash" was also a police scientist. Hiway is up again. George

"When Harry Met Sally" This is an older (60's)movie, and one of my favorites. Hopefully, it's recognizable to the rest of you: I wish, I wish, I wish I were a fish. George

A Fish Called Wanda Jamie Lee Curtis Halloween George

No. Mongo STRAIGHT! "Blazing Saddles" George

No. But the title character of one of the shows shares the name with a member of the Justice Society. George

"Ah! Very good. Would you mind telling me whose brain I DID put in?" "Then you won't be angry?" "I will NOT be angry." "Abby someone." "Abby someone. Abby who?" "Abby... Normal." George

The second part is "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," but I don't recognize the TV show. George

"It's About Time" (It's about space. About two men in the strangest place...) Two short-lived shows cashed in on the super-hero craze of the late 60's, both premiering in 1967. One was about a police chemist, "Carter Nash," who developed a formula to give him Superman-like powers. The other was about "Stanly Beamish," a gas station attendant who got his powers from a secret government pill, which only worked for him. Get either show, and you go ahead. Get them both, and you have my admiration. :) Extra credit: what OTHER show (over 20 years later) featured a police scientist who got super-powers (well, one)? George

Who knows? Maybe I've heard it dozens of times and never listened to the words. I don't recognize the lyrics. George

Was "Operation Petticoat" ever a TV show? George

Nah. It's older women, now. George

I was waiting for confirmation. I'll post one soon. George

Yeah. It's not as though I don't post some obscure ones. I just can't move this particular one along (without googling). George

Fine. Be that way. ;) George

Hiway is correct. I'm surprised WordWolf didn't get it, especially with the mention of Wonder Woman in "Super-Friends." George

There was a "Justice League Unlimited" episode, "Ultimatum," about the Ultimen, super-powered clones developed by Max Lord. They were a wonderful homage to the (non-Justice-League) Super-Friends. As for the abbreviated uniforms, shall I point out Wonder Woman, Robin... The open-shirt thing seemed to be especially common with black heroes in the comic books. Luke Cage, Black Lightning, etc., all started with the "Shaft" look. I guess they were "bad." On one network, this show was set in the 1940's. On another network, it was current (1970's), with one actor playing the same role, and another playing the son of his previous character. George

Ditto. Well, maybe I am camping on this thread. But I haven't seen "Sommersby," either. George
