I have been trying to remember the title of this movie and who was in it. I haven't seen it since about 1980 or so. I saw this film when I was a child of about 10 or 11 years of age and I loved it. Of course it was great seeing "the bionic woman (Lindsay Wagner)and "sue ellen ewing" (Linda Gray) on screen in period costumes. That's who they were back then. I have always been fascinated by history, costumes and time travel. I mean really, what if these things were really possible? Anyway this film is a sweet and moving love story with a bit of science fiction thrown in. I highly recommend it. Thanks to this site I can now seek it out for purchase.

Special Unit 2 (2001–2002)
What were they thinking?
6 February 2003
This was one of the best shows on the air. It had a talented and likable cast. Snappy and hilarious humor abounded on this show. I even adored the camera work. I loved the shots going from the street, thru the back of the dry cleaners and down the stairs to the units secret headquarters. You saw those shots more often during the shows original short term run when Sean Whalen played resident historian on the show. I have been a fan of that hottie Michael Landes since his days as "Jimmie the photographer" on Lois and Clark the New Adventures of Superman. I was so happy to see him on this show. He can act, he's got great comic timing and he's got the wise-cracking, smart-aleck persona down-pat. Although he had great chemistry with the curvy, tough yet vulnerable "Kate", he seemed to have even more so with Carl the gnome. I loved watching them share screen time. In my opinion there was no better episode than the premiere. You have to see it to truly appreciate what they were trying to do with this series. Of course UPN being UPN canceled this show. What were they thinking? Probably the same thing they were thinking when they canceled NOWHERE MAN, one of the best and most mysterious shows EVER. They replaced that show with "Homeboys in Outerspace". I can't even put my outrage into words. UPN makes some really crap--- choices. Anyway I hope to one day be able to either tape these shows off of cable or buy their collections. GREAT STUFF!!! Feel free to write to me.

The Paul Hogan Show (1973–1984)
WOULD LOVE TO SEE THIS SHOW AGAIN
5 February 2003
I was a big fan of this show in the '80's. I remember this show so fondly. My favorite recurring skit was the one where Paul Hogan and John Cornell played room-mates in this seedy little apartment. To this day I still fall down laughing when I think about them preparing their breakfast. They'd nail their bread to the wall and toast it with a blow-torch. This is one of the few shows whose collection I would buy if it was made available to the public.

Bizarre (1979–1986)
HUGE FAN
5 February 2003
I loved this show. It is sorely missed. I didn't have cable in the '80's so I remember watching this show on channel "9" in NYC. I don't know what show Mr. Martin was watching because everything about this show was just funny as hell. This show along with the Paul Hogan show were 2 of the funniest sketch comedy shows ever. Of course they all owe a debt to the incomparable Benny Hill.

Feel free to share your comments with me about any of your beloved shows. I am a huge TV and FILM buff.
