    Anyone watching the end of the movie got a fantastic view of the plaza.

    That's actually the clue that gave it away.  Of course, then, everything else fell into place.

    New one soon.

  2. This two-season series featured Danielle Panabaker and Jeri Ryan in major roles, though neither was the star.

    The actual star kept the show from being cancelled before it even filmed.  Known for movie roles but not a TV personality, he was appealing to the producers who wanted someone like him in the role.  The actor said it was the first TV role he thought had the depth to interest him.

    The title character has three rules, to which he refers as his "Cutthroat Manifesto": * "Trial is war. Second place is death." * "Truth is relative. Pick one that works." * "In a jury trial, there are only twelve opinions that matter, and yours (speaking to his team) is not one of them."

  3. Robert Davi usually has tough guy roles, sometimes good guy, sometimes bad (as in "Traxx").

    As WW pointed out, Priscilla Barnes is best known for "Three's Company," but she's had roles in several movies.  Unless Raf wants to jump in, feel free to waive the "three day rule" and google her.

  5. Iconic props from this movie were stolen and missing for many years.  A man was arrested last year (2023) after giving himself up.  He had thought that the items were jewel-encrusted and was dismayed that they were only coated with glass.  He was not about to admit to the crime then, however.  Now he will receive a light sentence due to his advanced age.  An accomplice has recently turned up, as well.

  6. What three brothers played for the same MLB team at the same time?   (FYI:  they weren't just on the roster at the same time, they were actually on the field together.)

    No more extra credit.  They were all outfielders for the Giants in the early 60s.  AFAIK, none of them are in the Hall of Fame, but all were All-Stars at various times.  The son of one of them was also a major leaguer.

    Any guesses?
