I have a soft spot for both the safety vehicle 1 and the Pantera as well. NB government ****ed up hard. Bricklin had potential.

My favorite from that era is the Stratos though. What an incredible car.
That was my favorite car of 1975. It was the fastest rally car in 1975, a middle engine car, it needed great handling to drive that but it was fast. Later came faster fwd cars (they put a 300hp on a fwd square box fiat) and in the 80's the 4wd.

Aside from the obvious, I fail to see how a show that's entirely centered on encouraging kids to **** is entertaining. More of the same crap from Netflix.
I didnt mind it as much, but just went halfway through.
I will say..Netflix probably knows way more about what's going on with teens in high school than any of us..
When I was growing up in high school, people were going crazy over a pen my grampa gave me. It just a ink pen with a little picture of a woman on it, but when you flipped the pen upside down, the ink would drop making the woman in the picture naked. It was a pretty cool pen actually come to think of it...
If not for that, remember going into your local video store and hovering around the XXX section for 10 min before finally having the nerve to sneak in?? Or try to buy a playboy at the dep?? That was some stressful crap.
Nowadays, kids can literally watch porn on their phones in class.

Pretty sure teenagers are way more sexually active than back in the days.

The actual live video is also strangely disturbing.

Also, I dunno... I get we all have nipples and I don’t think twice about male nipples when they show up on screen, whether in movies, live fighting events or whatever.

That said, I find the appearance here just weird though I would think that CGI’ing them out would look even more weird. Maybe the Genie should just wear a shirt.

I can't stand Will Smith. As far as I'm concerned, he's a giant nipple that needs to be CGI'ed out.

In many ways Smith seems too normal there, he looks like just some dude that painted himself blue. It would have required someone that is larger than life physically like John Goodman in his younger days. Not sure who could fit the bill now. Maybe the Rock.

The Rock played a tooth fairy, he can play anything for sure

He would still look weird as a genie though haha

For those of us who grew up in the early days of TVA (when it used to be known as Télé-Métropole), we are no doubt familiar with Réal Giguère. I always found he was a bit of a buffoon that the station would plug in here and there but he did manage to snag quite a bit of air time. I know, cause I'd always see his ugly mug when I was channel-surfing: «Monsieur Canal 10» a fait l’unanimité

I literally saw this guy's life flash before my eyes thanks to his abject mediocrity.

RIP.

Tony Marinaro's favorite song.


Réal Giguère should have been featured in that clip, with a little intro like Et maintenant votre animateur inter-gallactique ... Rééééééaaaaaaalllllll Giguèèèèèèèèèrrrrrrrrrrre!!!! (actual intro I once heard on TVA).

I like those new voices they keep adding in the refrain. :laugh:
