Common Knowledge (2019– )

Not the best host

[5/10 · 17 July 2020]

I like the idea of the show, and the questions are pretty good. But Joey Fatone swallows his words. I also can't stand it when he tells a contestant "Good job" when that contestant hasn't gotten anything right.

Best Ever Trivia Show (2019– )

The name of this show is a lie.

Too much chatter. Not enough questions. And the questions are terriblly inconsistent in their difficulty.

America Says (2018– )

Not bad

It's kind of a mashup of Family Feud and Match Game. It's a lot less stupid and a lot more fun than I thought it would be.

You Can't Take It with You (1979 TV Movie)

Nutty, lovable family

This is the absolutely best adaptation of the play I've ever seen. I've had the play itself in hardcover (don't know where it is now) for over 50 years, and have loved it for that long. This is the only version I've ever seen that was completely true to the stage play (all the dialogue, etc.) There was a pretty good version with Jason Robards years ago, but they added some dialogue to that one. This is perfect. No missing scenes. Dialogue true to the original. Perfect casting. Who better than Jean Stapleton could have ever played Penny? Blythe Danner has been one of my favorite actresses since 1776 (the show, not the year).
