This is why Joe Montana's Niners are my true definition of a dynasty-- they may have totally creamed a couple of the teams they played, but at least it wasn't by deflating any footballs.

Much appreciated-- the good news about it is that he did it right here at home, as he wanted; he didn't want to do it in a hospital, and he got his wish.

My father has just passed on, apparently quite peacefully, at 84.

Pleasantly Surprised: Shows That Were Better Than You Expected
bmasters9 replied to ybrik's topic in TV Show-Related Talk
Even so, that CBS run of it did have some great episodes, from me seeing it on DVD. -
Bumping this up: this hit miniseries is soon to be released on physical media (Blu) here in America... https://www.amazon.com/The-Act-The-Complete-Limited-Series-Blu-ray/dp/B0CV4R5G21?tag=bluray-011-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&&tag=hometheate047-20&language=en_US¤cy=USD

John Riggins did the same in XVII for Washington, except that that one was in lieu of a punt.
-
I'm right there with you-- John Riggins' magnificent 166-yd. rushing performance in Super Bowl XVII in '83 to lead Washington to a Lombardi (including that memorable 4th-and-1 for 43 to a TD) has that one ranking high above this travesty, and that's why I saw the second half of that one last night, and practically none of LVIII.
-
In the regular games, yes-- in the playoffs (because somebody has to win) they keep going until someone scores and wins (at least IIRC).
-
Me either! It'll be Super Bowl XVII (Miami/Washington), Super Bowl XX (Chicago/New England), Super Bowl XV (Oakland/Philly), or any other actually entertaining Super Bowl of the past for me-- not this one.
-
Or the 49ers-- both already have titles to their name, let alone have had multiple chances, while Detroit doesn't even have one, let alone they haven't even had a chance; that's why if it's SF/KC again, I am not watching the Super Bowl.

Iconography: Network And Production Logos
bmasters9 replied to smittykins's topic in Everything Else TV
Which I thought Shout!'s DVDs of Hart to Hart and T.J. Hooker would have (fourth- and fifth-and-final season for the former, all-in-one for the latter); the version they do have (bylineless logo, same Suzanne Ciani jingle)... does reflect the times pretty well, though, IMO. -

Recently got Shout!'s all-in-one DVD of T.J. Hooker (that hit ABC/CBS action cop procedural w/William Shatner et al.), and have been seeing it regularly lately (started w/the third season, have finished that, and now on season four), and believe it or not, while I used to think it was a case of great title music, bad show, it's actually better than I ever gave it credit for (many third-season episodes actually did have some good chase scenes, for one thing); Shout!'s DVD also reflects the times as well (albeit not entirely), in that it has a bylineless logo of Columbia PIctures Television (same Suzanne Ciani jingle as the Coke-byline logo) starting with the second episode of the third season and carrying forward (the first two seasons, and the first third-season episode, only had the SPT logo). -
That's partly why I didn't watch the Rose Bowl-- I thought Alabama was gonna just put the pedal to the metal and keep it there, and it wouldn't even be a game; glad Michigan won.

Everything you ever wanted to know about this hit 70s NBC medical/action series (a staple of mine on DVD); has some spelling and grammatical errors, but still well worth it
