What was the last TV show you watched?

[Touchofevil]

Right now, I totally agree. The boy is asleep, the wife is out with the girls, and it's just me, the garage, and this bottle of Lapgroaig.

Sounds nice. Never had Laproaig, but I expect that it does the job, just a lot quicker than an A.O.

She's a slow sipper for sure. It's like a campfire in your mouth, but in a good way. I would have preferred beer, due to the heat and humidity, but I was not about to make a beer run. That's OK, I made do. I needed a little "boost" anyway.

Two and a Half Men
The last Charlie episode. After that the show turned into a bizarre spin-off of itself.

 

[Zombie_61]

The Fall Guy.

Now that was a fun show.

 

[HoosierDaddy]

Sure was....

 

[jamespowers]

No, your thinking of Alfred Nobel!

Just checking.

 

[jamespowers]

Sweeet! Thank you. I know what I will be watching during my summer vacation. I agree with you on the Houston blatant rip-off thing, but I do remember watching it and kind of enjoying it way back when. I don't think that I would enjoy it nowadays.

Try it. It still works for me. Thanks for reminding me 1Mach1.

 

[jamespowers]

His was by far the better. Although, Houston could be pretty funny.

Agreed.

 

[jamespowers]

The Fall Guy.

They would jump any vehicle in the 80s. Too bad the "80s American quality" never held up.

And cars of today would hold up better? :rofl:

A little boost indeed. lol lol

Yeah, that worked for me too.

Perfect attonement for Cersei. lol lol I told you Tyrion would end up leading. You should see what happens to John Stark.

Those last episodes remind me what great actors the supporting cast were! Charlie wasn't even there in the end, he was so high!

 

[Zombie_61]

Well, that didn't take long. lol

For the wife and I, today it was the MeTV Sunday afternoon/evening lineup: The Mod Squad, Hawaii Five-O, Black Sheep Squadron, Columbo, The Man From U.N.C.L.E., and currently Mission Impossible.

Halt and Catch Fire has been terrible this second season. It has nowhere to go but up.

The Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell 1st episode was also terrible. It had so much promise and content.

I never really watched the Fall guy. However, I worked in cable TV type system maintenance for many years and got to see lots of bits and pieces of lots of shows (Ever watched the Midwest Farm Report Channel?). One day, I was working on a system, adjusting equipment, and caught one of the Fall Guy's jumps. Whoever the film editor was, let the film run just a few frames too long.
The truck was flying through the air in wonderful slow motion! The dust is blowing off behind the truck, as the truck slowly dips forward in its trajectory. The front wheels hit the ground, followed by the rear wheels hitting the ground. The entire truck bounds back up into the air, front end first followed by the rear end. Still, in slow motion, the front end drops back to the ground with the rear end following behind. As the rear end hits the ground, the front end is still dipping lower, the left front wheel reaching toward an odd angle, the rear end bounding back up again. The front bumper is nearing the ground, the left front wheel now about a 45 degree angle and clearly headed out away from the wheel well.
The very next frame and a dozen or two that followed showed the truck turning sharply on four solid wheels and skidding to a stop, all at normal speed.

I don't think that truck survived the jump.

I understand that the Fall guy, and I know that the Dukes of Hazard (with rare exceptions), only ever jumped a car (or truck) once. For safety reasons, all jump cars were crushed immediately after.
Dukes of Hazard production staff would often only paint one side of a car to be jumped as the General Lee. There were several editing errors where the car would be jumped, land, and do some sort of skid or turn resulting in the unpainted side showing for a frame or two.

Just more worthless TV trivia.

"MeTV" "GetTV" and "Movies"have been the surprise cable channels of the last year (they popped up about a year ago on my Cable System). The only thing I can't do is watch those channels "live" as the commercials go on and on. But I do regularly record from all of those channels. TCM is awesome, and many of its offerings overlap with "Movies" and "GetTV," but every once in awhile, those channels pull something out that I have never seen on TCM.
