  1. If you put all the episodes of both series together, I would wager 1 percent or fewer dealt with the supernatural.
  2. They are both sitcoms. The spinoff lasted much longer than the original.
  3. One of the main characters in this series appears to be shot to death in the cliffhanger finale. We find out in a spinoff series that the character actually died, and shows up as a ghost who needs to do a good deed to get into heaven.
  4. For pity's sake, PLEASE JOIN THE GAME!!!!
  5. NOT a sequel. Cut your answer in half.
  6. My first clue was exceptionally well timed. Name the actor: Walter Black Benjamin Martin Nick Marshall Rev. Graham Hess
  7. And Walter Matthau's more famous collaboration with Neil Simon was The Odd Couple. You're up, George!
  8. I was going to say Good Times, but that show got a proper finale. And I don't think Janet DoBois sang the credits song. Good Times was a hell of a lot more popular than Maude, though. Long running spinoffs... Laverne and Shirley... AH! I know! The Jeffersons! Final answer.
  9. The Canada rhyme was pre-fame Lin Manuel Miranda (known for the Broadway show Hamilton). For anyone lurking, modcat5 and I are the same person. Sometimes I get too lazy to switch, but modcat5 is supposed to be when I act in official capacity as a moderator. Consider this a disclaimer and public notification. :)
  10. The movie is not set in Florida. It is also not salty, bitter or sour.
  11. Stars included Walter Matthau, Maggie Smith, Michael Caine, Bill Cosby and Richard Pryor. Oh, and Jane Fonda.
  12. The movie tells four stories taking place in the same general location. The structure was similar to the Love Boat, where you're introduced to the characters at the beginning and then alternate in their stories as the running time progresses. The four stories were called "Visitors from London," "Visitors from Chicago," "Visitor from New York" and "Visitor from Philadelphia." The visitor from Philadelphia was played by an actor known for cantankerous roles. It was not his most famous screen collaboration with the original playwright.
  13. It's one thing to repeat your point. It's another to make the same point over and over again, in different topics. What do you think of dispensationalism? It's a way to reconcile inconsistencies in a made up theology. Can you lose salvation? Sure! Why not? Or why? It's all made up. What do you think of the Trinity? Someone made it up. SIT? Made up. Are all governments from God? No. That's made up. Make up? Only after a fight. That's what I was referring to by redundancy. Anyone who's been on this site more than half an hour knows I am not above beating a dead horse. But it has to be warranted. It shouldn't be like Stan Lee showing up in every Marvel movie to make a conspicuous "Look at me, I'm Stan Lee" appearance.
  14. Great answers! Of course, I'm biased because one of those answers was REALLY flattering. That said, I do try not to be rude, but I think WordWolf hit on my subconscious question in his answer: I think my comments, if I were to really let loose, would run the risk of being repetitive. Not to mention redundant. In other words, I've said it already. Thanks. Any other feedback will be welcomed.
  15. Based on a play where one character mentions Michael Caine to her husband. In the movie, the husband is played by Michael Caine. The reference was changed to David Niven.
  16. Just fishing for some advice and conversation here. I'm following a bunch of different conversations in doctrinal that I continue to find interesting, but I haven't really jumped into many. Mostly my concern is redundancy. I mean, how many times can I say "because it's made up" before it gets old, even if I restrict such posts to the "picking up threads" thread? So here's my question: when does it become rude for a non-believer to insert that perspective into various conversations? I could go on, but I'd prefer to leave the question open-ended and allow anyone who wishes to take the topic where it may lead.
  17. P.S. I knew who Tom Hulce was. I just didn't remember that he was in Animal House.
  18. I may have used this before, but so what. One of the stars of this movie plays a movie star who is nominated for an Oscar. She loses. But the actress playing her did such a good job that she was nominated for an Oscar. She won.
  19. I'm going to guess Animal House based on "arguably more famous than Footloose," Kevin Bacon, and Donald Sutherland (whose son, Kiefer, has had a strong TV and movie career." Died of a drug overdose: John Belushi Karen Allen helped Indiana Jones. Yeah, this is Animal House
  20. He does sound Dazed and Confused, but that is not the answer. I could offer more hints, but really, you should be able to get this one without a clue.
  21. You would never know it from the title. Or the cast of characters. Or the wardrobe. Or the vernacular. Or the setting. But if you pay careful attention to the plot, you might recognize Jane Austen's "Emma" as the source material for this extremely popular and trend-setting high school comedy.
