On the way home tonight I noticed the car in front of me (Tennessee tag, local county) had a Bruins sticker on the back windshield. Don't see that very often in these parts!

WHat a nice guy! Won't forget the first time I met him, we were working on TV pilot for Kelsey Grammer, and it happened to be on a bar set that day. He came on the set and a few of us said "Norm", he laughed and gave me a fist pump!. What a guy!. RIP Big guy!

California must be a dangerous place.

We drank radioactive water out of garden hoses

 

[TD Charlie]

The biblical rains have begun. My office abutts a gutter and storm drain and all I've heard for the last hour is a rhythmic, deep, gurgling as the water and air sloshes through.

Before or after walking 5 miles uphill to school during a tornado?

God I love Big Bang, watch it all the time.

Be thankful the water and air are sloshing through. It is when they back up that you have a problem.

ALL DAY lol

I'm not too concerned about the drains, it's the ground water that I'm nervous about. Supposed to be over 2 inches of rain when this is all said and done.

I came to it late, watching in reruns. I thought it was a bad premise so I never picked it up. Now it is one of my favorites. Great writing, great characters, and able to laugh at themselves.

I didn't pay attention to it when it was first running either. I watched a few reruns now I'm totally hooked too.

Strange how that works.

Normally I'd worry too but eastern CT has suffered drought conditions the past few years so we need it. There'll be some local flooding in the usual places but overall it shouldn't be too bad. I worry more about the wind but so far it is calm.

It's silly, but there are some very poignant moments, and that's when the show is at its best. I'm not ashamed to say one scene gets me laughing and then all misty every time I see it:



Just perfect writing.

While barefoot!! Both ways!!

While barefoot!! Both ways!!

Good big brother

I am now taking the Amtrak to Boston tomorrow from NYC. Changed plans from renting a car and going to Maine. That was just too long of a drive. Looking at hotels near Fenway or Back Bay.

Never quite hit the spot for me in the way that a show like Frasier did, but an easy watch and no doubt its peak was very very good. Like a lot of sitcoms it probably lingered too long, and I thought the last couple of seasons were mostly bordering on dull, but it had a pretty long run of good quality.

The last of the true long-running widely popular sitcoms I would think. I sometimes wonder what those channels that rely on running repeats of series over and over are going to be showing in 50 years time given there's almost no new content being produced in that format anymore.
