Perry Mason: The Case of the Polka Dot Pony (1962)
Artwork
Did you notice the artwork on the wall in LA matched identically with the art on the wall in Italy!! Homes of two strangers who never met but are trying to!! Burt Metcalf in this episode had better luck on MASH. The only person who was involved on every episode of MASH that was ever televised. Never missed a show...ever. This was a weird Perry Mason. I've seen them all numerous times thanks to METV. I'm 67 and I used to watch them with my grandparents all the time. I watch them religiously now for the nostalgia of the wonderful memories of my childhood. After all, the channels like METV are supposed to bring back our wonderful childhood memories.
Animal Kingdom: 1992 (2022)
Mostly questions
How is it Leila George's kids are ten years older and Craig's kid is still an infant??? Did I hear wrong when the people are all calling Leila George 'Smurf' now?? I've never missed a minute of this show and loved it from day one. I sure how like hell they don't confuse the season with a bunch back clips.
Mannix: To the Swiftest, Death (1968)
Great episode. Gorgeous girls.
Jill Ireland, Sallie Sachse and Emily Banks all melt the screen. Wish they had more time. The scene with Emily Banks in the bar is great. The look on Mannix face indicates surprise when she takes the cigarette from Mannix, lights it herself and returns it back to his mouth. She seems to enjoy the improv. This was a fun episode. He had beautiful co stars on his show.
Vendetta for the Saint (1969)
Rosemary Dexter
One of the true beauties of 60/70's Euro Cinema. Rosemary Dexter is in this, making it most worthwhile. I've read everything about her I can find. Very intriguing life.
The Wrecking Crew (1968)
Adorable.
All aspiring actress's who want to play comedy should watch Sharon Tate in this movie. She was hilarious. She stole the movie from Dean Martin. As much as I would loved to have seen another Matt Helm, I can understand why Dean didn't want to do another because of Sharon's murder. Elke Sommer and Tina Louise were both jaw dropping in their sensuality. Loved this movie.
The Ambushers (1967)
At least the girls are GORGEOUS.
Probably the lesser of the four...but the clothes for the Slaygirls are terrific. Senta Berger is just drop dead beautiful. Too bad she was so subdued. Her boots were the coolest. I'd love to find the DVD, Matt Helm Lounge. All 4 on one disc. Quite honestly I loved all the 60's nostalgia. I thoroughly loved all all four shown back to back on TCM.
Shame (2011)
Worst movie ever.
I couldn't wait for this terrible movie to end. A sex addict's mentally disturbed sister moves in to his house and interrupts his disturbing lifestyle. This was sooooo boring.
Take Two (2018)
Cutest show on TV.
It's easy to understand this comes from the Castle people. Too bad this can't become a 22 episode regular season show. Rachel Bilson is so adorable. I had never seen her before. She obviously learned some of her comedy chops from her grandfather Bruce who directed many TV series. Especially some of the funniest Hogan's Hero's episodes. Hope this show stays on the air.
The Bribe (1949)
Ava Gardner Never looked sexier. This is for all her hardcore fans.
Had not seen this until a day or so on TCM. The scene introducing her is pure old move magic. I'll let you see it first before I describe it. For 1949 the studio took full advantage of her incredible beauty. Wearing several two piece outfits displaying her very thin flat belly. Ava's fans who adore her gorgeous bad girl films will be heavily on board for this one.
Live by Night (2016)
No Passion
A film about life in Florida but not filmed in Florida does not stand a chance. This was filmed in Georgia because Florida's governor hates the hollywood crowd and will not give tax incentives to anyone making a motion picture in his state. So they built Tampa in Georgia. It was obvious. this film is phoney. Which is too bad because Affleck is a really good film maker. Up until this one, all his films have been terrific. Let's hope this is his last crappy film for awhile.
Keen Eddie (2003)
Keen Eddie is One of TV's finest ever.
It's mindblowing that this show was cancelled after 7 episodes. It's further unbelievable this gem is on DVD. I watched them on Fox when it first aired and loved every minute. Imagine my disappointment when it disappeared for no reason other than it was too good. This DVD is worth every penny. Sienna Miller is at her most darling and so so beautiful.
Forever Mine (1999)
ST. Pete Beach has bad luck.
The worst movie ever film was called HEALTH. It was filmed entirely at the Don Cesar. This movie mess was mostly filmed at the Don Cesar. The only reason this gets remotely a 5 is because of the scenery and that the bar scene was filmed across the street from my house!!! A day scene filmed at Night!! So I had to buy this CD so I could listen to the Director's comments. How could I not.
Hogan's Heroes: Heil Klink (1967)
Double Banner Funniest Klink
Saw this last night. Watching Klink and Hochstetter trying to arrest each other is a scream. Had me laughing to myself almost the entire episode. Klink at his best.
The Americans: Dead Hand (2018)
Elizabeth is BACK!!!!
Back to her first and second season roots. She is Smoking, honey pottin', enemy killing and just kicking ass again!!!! After season 3 the old Elizabeth vanished. So happy she is back with a vengance.
Atomic Blonde (2017)
Fantastic action movie
Charlize has never been sexier in her life. Almost all the action sequences are done by her. It took her 5 years to get this movie made. The story is an easy flow. I loved this movie. Fun, sexy, full of action scenes. One thing for sure, Charlize knows how to smoke.
The Outer Limits: Wolf 359 (1964)
A first.
As big fan of MeTV, this is the first time ever that a married couple in the early sixties TV series of any kind, showing a married couple in bed together. In those days it was always separate beds. This was the beautiful Sara Shane's second to the last performance before leaving America forever. She moved to Australia for a smog free healthy life.
The Gingerbread Man (1998)
Lousy accents
I actually liked the movie quite a bit. But a Brit and a Dane playing Georgia southerners is a bit silly. Having been born in Kentucky and living in Florida the last 40 years, I found their accents ridiculous. All that aside I enjoyed the movie. Keep in mind Robert Altman made his ABSOLUTE WORST movie here in St. Pete, H.E.A.L.T.H. It was so terrible it has never been released in the theaters or DVD. TCM has played it once or twice. So this one of his is decent.
Wicker Park (2004)
If you like this version, the original French movie will definitely impress you
I really like Diane Kruger, but Monica Bellucci in the original is terrific. It's certainly not a coincidence that the name of the restaurant in Wicker Park where Josh Hartnett overhears Diane Kruger's conversation is named Bellucci's!! That's real respect. The french version is full of comedy, this American remake has next to none. It's worth getting a copy of "Le Apartment" if you enjoy this.
The Beverly Hillbillies: The Giant Jackrabbit (1964)
Giant Jackrabbit
The smoking hot Beverly Caterers is Kathy Kersh, who was married to Burt Ward, the Boy Wonder. Sharon Tate was the secretary, who Jethro picks up and starts kissing. It was the first of 15 appearances as one of Mr. Drysdale's secretaries. Funny as it got in 1964. I read 47 million people watched this episode!!!!
77 Sunset Strip: The Celluloid Cowboy (1961)
Donna Douglas ain't no Elley May on this episode !
My Heavens. Donna Douglas is such a sexpot here on this fun episode. She can't keep her hands off Flint as the 'other woman.' Her clothes are Skin Tight. She's drinking and smoking. Never has she looked so beautiful. Roscoe was better than usual as comic relief dressed up as a cigar smoking Indian Chief. Having been born one year before the start of Sunset Strip, MeTV has afforded me my first experience of this wonderful series. I truly enjoy the casting 99% of the time.
77 Sunset Strip: Strange Bedfellows (1961)
Suzanne(Frenchy) is the best.
The gal playing Zsa Zsa is perfect. I laughed out loud when Suzanne lifted Roscoe's chin off the ground. It looked to be her ad lib. Love this show. Thanks to MeTV, I'm watching these my first time, I'm 60. I had only heard of this show and how cool it was. I was just 1 when it began. This episode was very entertaining. Hope MeTV keeps this show around for a couple years.
