People do the Craziest Things! It's all coming back to me now! Kinda. I remember thinking watching Night Court made me seem like a grownup at four. It went completely over my head, but I liked to have adults think I got it. I'm sure I fooled someone.
I read somewhere that Jason Bateman was 14 when he was on that show, but was already having sex with women twice his age. How did he get so damned lucky not only to do that but never get in trouble for it?
Tony Franciosa in "Finder of Lost Loves" and Jennifer O'Neill and Jon-Erik Hexum in "Cover Up." I loved both those shows. Jennifer O'Neill is gorgeous. RIP Tony and Jon-Erik.
If there is anyone who can tell me how I can see "Finder of Lost Loves" episodes online or any other way, I would be greatly appreciative for the information. I have been trying to find some way to rewatch the show for a few years now, all in vain. If someone can e-mail me the information, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.
Thanks for ending with two long-running shows I DO remember; one that I watched(Night Court) and one I didn't(Who's the Boss).
Thanks for the detail about Hexum. I watched reruns of a show he did before that, Voyagers. That was a time travel adventure with Hexum and a kid sidekick(Mino Pellucci) he had trouble getting along with as they corrected history. Most likely nobody's thespian, but he was shaping up, in more ways than one, to having a half-way decent career.
Just watched all four parts of the 1984 openings, and I only remember like 20% of the shows you've featured. Either most of these shows were completely forgettable, short-lived, or I'm just getting old.
THis is why Jan died: Hexum was apparently not informed that blanks use paper or plastic wadding to seal gun powder into the shell, and that this wadding is propelled out of the barrel of the gun with enough force to cause severe injury or death if the weapon is fired within a few inches of the body
Ron Levitt and Michael Moye (the creators of Married with Children) created this sitcom for NBC. Think of Jason Bateman's character as a teenage Al Bundy. Being on NBC, they couldn't take the comedy to the edge like they were able to with MWC on a start-up network like Fox.
For the three episodes that aired with Jon-Erik Hexum after his tragic accident, I wonder if the credits of Cover Up were changed so a gun was not being shot during his name.
I seem to recall it did not change for those episodes—nor did they change for exported versions of Cover Up (which aired after Mr Hexum's very tragic death).
actually Bert Convy hosted the pilot of the 1990 version of "Match Game."
Bert was ill and was unable to do the series, so Ross Shafer was chosen to host instead. Bert Convy ironically passed away days after the 1990 version ended in mid July of '91 from brain tumor.
In looking at a lot of these collections, it's amazing how many guns were featured shooting at the audience. Kinda dig it.

Bert Convy, host of Tattletales and later on in 1984, Super Password hosted a show called "People Do the Craziest Things?"
That's very odd?!

Hard to believe that that was how the pilot episode to WTB? originally opened. I wonder why this was never in syndication, or even on the DVD?
vnisanian2001 3 years ago
I've seen that intro in syndication and on Nick@Nite, but just that episode.
