  1. Correct. Fun show, though I didn't watch it all that often, either. George
  2. A guy helps his ex-wife's really important boss get rid of lots of overbearing visitors. George
  3. "Try this for a deep, dark secret: the great detective, ---- ----? He doesn't exist. I invented him. Follow. I always loved excitement, so I studied, and apprenticed, and put my name on an office. But absolutely nobody knocked down my door. A female private investigator seemed so... feminine. So I invented a superior. A decidedly MASCULINE superior. Suddenly there were cases around the block." "A killer caught by a lousy television show and a rotten commercial. There's some thing poetic about that." "Now all we need is the third man." "Well, if it isn't Orson Welles, I can't be of any immediate help." "What are you doing?" "I'll tell you what I'm *not* doing! I'm not driving in circles trying to elude people I don't know, who want to kill a nice little nebbish, for reasons I don't even understand. I'm also not about to sit in that car while Sheldon looks at me like I'm Babe Ruth and George Washington all rolled into... [into phone] "... yes, information? I'd like the number of the Central Intelligence Agency... No, that is not a residence." "Who are you?" "Just a happy go lucky tourist out to see a bit of the world." "Is that why you've got five passports, from five different countries, in five different names?" "Kept trying for a good picture." George
  4. "I must say, they make a perfectly exquisite display pair... but I suppose you want them back, now." "I object to you. I object to intellect without discipline; I object to power without constructive purpose." George
  5. It's clearly one of the Moriarty episodes of NG. I believe it's the first, but I don't remember the title. "Elementary, My Dear Data"? George
  6. You really don't remember? Oh, well. The young lady was Brooke Shields Brenda Starr Timothy Dalton George
  7. It was, indeed, CH in the original "Planet of the Apes." In a cute homage, CH recites almost exactly the same line in the remake, except he's playing the head gorilla at the time! George
  8. Yeah, Bow, that was asked and answered months ago! How about my NEWEST post? :) George
  9. "All the time it was... we finally really did it. [screaming] YOU MANIACS! YOU BLEW IT UP! OH, D--N YOU! G-----N YOU ALL TO HELL!" George P.S. I just checked. Although it was the "Dirty Harry" character who said the line, it was actually the movie "Sudden Impact."
  10. It's a Clint Eastwood movie, but I'm not sure which one. "Dirty Harry"? George
  11. No, but good try. This show is about half that old. "A killer caught by a lousy television show and a rotten commercial. There's some thing poetic about that." "Now all we need is the third man." "Well, if it isn't Orson Welles, I can't be of any immediate help." "What are you doing?" "I'll tell you what I'm *not* doing! I'm not driving in circles trying to elude people I don't know, who want to kill a nice little nebbish, for reasons I don't even understand. I'm also not about to sit in that car while Sheldon looks at me like I'm Babe Ruth and George Washington all rolled into... [into phone] "... yes, information?

"Is that why you've got five passports, from five different countries, in five different names?" "Kept trying for a good picture." George

  13. This is pretty much the way I've seen it, too. The only newbies that get particularly stiff rebuke are those that come in swinging, to begin with. Even then, most posters try to restore a civil tone to the debate. Nevertheless, GSC is not "all things to all men," and never will be. George
  14. Sorry. Like Khan, I'm very intelligent, but two-dimensional in my thinking. ;) Go ahead, WW. George
  15. That's it. Basically, it was about a thief (Crodon) playing Odo, pretending that he knew where a planet of changelings was. The title was "Vortex." Warp two, Mr, Wolf! George
  16. Indeed it was. I was trying to find the quote where Carrey's girlfriend asks him why he's trying to look like Jerry Lewis, and he says he was going more for DeNiro! :lol: Anyway, you're up! George
  17. "Forever Knight"? (I don't watch vampire shows, but one of the quotes had this plainly in it!) George
  18. Since we didn't get one yesterday, I'll offer three today: mercurial, jovial, and saturnine mercurial: adj. liable to sudden unpredictable change; "erratic behavior"; "fickle weather"; "mercurial twists of temperament"; "a quicksilver character, cool and willful at one moment, utterly fragile the next" jovial: adj. gay; merry; joyous; jolly; mirth-inspiring; hilarious; characterized by mirth or jollity. saturnine: adj. heavy; grave; gloomy; dull; showing a brooding ill humor; "a dark scowl"; a morose and unsociable manner. Martindale's behavior was mercurial: he could be grandly jovial one minute and profoundly saturnine the next.
  19. Two songs come to mind, but I'll go with "A Boy Named Sue" (Johnny Cash) George
  20. It seems that Excie wishes that everyone coming to GS could have the deliverance that she did. A laudable desire, but not really achievable, I think. We all have different amounts of "baggage" when we come here, and some may find the forums here too much to take, or just not specific enough for their needs. Some may just need a lot more time. That said, I contend that there is as much diversity of opinion here as would be found anywhere. One size may not fit all, but there is a lot of room here! George
