Quite so! In fact, another reason why Dr. Bob Hartley was more memorable to me is because "Hartley" used part of Bob Newhart's name.

After seeing all of The Bob Newhart Show (where he was Dr. Bob Hartley, Chicago psychologist) and some of Newhart (where he was Dick Loudon, Vermont innkeeper), I think that the more memorable role of Bob Newhart's was that of Dr. Bob Hartley (in fact, that's the way I'll remember him from seeing all of that classic 1972-78 CBS comedy).

Premiere edition of 20/20 from 6/6/78; this was the disastrous premiere that led to Hugh Downs coming in the second week, and staying until 1999 (Barbara Walters becoming his co-anchor in 1984)

That was the whole point of why I never liked Seinfeld, and why I strongly feel that the DVD releases of the same (seasonal or otherwise) would be an incredible waste of money for me.

I found it incredibly unfunny when it was originally on, and because I did, it will never be in my DVD collection. I'm not wasting money on something that I didn't find funny to begin with, and this is such a thing. That title track is just as bad as that of Friends, IMO. Not just that, but I strongly dislike the show (don't know the reason or reasons why, though).

I find that it does, quite honestly. What if your date is rushing to get ready and is already nervous about the date? Someone who honks might put that date even more on edge.

Collecting vintage newspapers (as with that Atlanta one I spoke about under Chit-Chat). The one I'm getting now is a L.A. Times from January 29, 1986, one day after the Challenger disaster.

When I purchased the Season 1, Volume 1 DVD release of Perry Mason (all of the 1957 episodes and some of 1958), I thought that, it being made back then, it would be incredibly tedious and slow, and would be something I got rid of and regretted. Not so! In fact, what has kept me with Mason is how that title character has the camaraderie with his coworkers (secretary Della Street and investigator Paul Drake), and how prosecutor Hamilton Burger softens up over the run of the show; I have 5.5 seasons' worth now (5 full seasons and the first part of Season 6).

I've now got 2 discs to go on that full-series M Squad release, and it's been incredibly entertaining. I think personally that M Squad is one of the greatest series I've ever seen, right up there with Barney Miller and The Bob Newhart Show.

I liked that woman who had Storm, and I felt for her when she revealed that the animal shelter told her that Storm had to be declawed before that woman could adopt her.

Somewhat akin to that classic situation where you're in an empty theater, and instead of picking seats anywhere else, other people flank you on all sides. Is that it?

So I guess what you're saying is, when you need someone, you can never find anyone, but if you don't need anyone, they're all around you. Is that it?

IIRC, that was part of the storyline of the 1977 Beverly Cleary book Ramona and Her Father.

You did indeed use the proper form "too"; no need to worry about that.

You're not alone-- I love carrots too.

I had purchased the Emma Peel Megaset of The Avengers (classic 60s British spy series starring the late Patrick Macnee as John Steed, and Diana Rigg as Emma Peel; this release had all her episodes), and I thought I would be enough of a fan to watch it front-to-back, but it's pretty boring to me, and as such, I can only watch one episode at a time.

Personally, that Treetop Cat Rescue show is a better one by far than those others.

I might be watching more of The Avengers from henceforth. ETA: was in final episode of Hart to Hart from May 22, 1984, entitled "Meanwhile, Back At The Ranch"; credit taken from fifth-and-final-season DVD

http://metro.co.uk/2015/06/25/patrick-macnee-star-of-60s-tv-favourite-the-avengers-dies-aged-93-5266674/ Patrick Macnee, best known as John Steed from The Avengers, has just passed on at 93.

Speaking of which, there was a first-season episode of Hart to Hart called "A Question of Innocence," and in that episode was a scene where Max (Lionel Stander) made a cheese souffle. He said to the Harts, "This cheese souffle is gonna tickle your tummies." When it came out, he said, "This must be eaten moments after it cools." Unfortunately, the Harts were called away before they could eat it, and the souffle fell in. Max said to the souffle, "I know just how you feel." That episode aired Jan. 15, 1980, and here it is from YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkUvDlQxC6Y&list=PLsMlLgUZAMwIjPoDkHUXO68YqzLPVw8Pl&index=12

To be more specific: I drink three cups of black coffee every morning, Earl Grey tea in the afternoon, and evening tea that varies with lemon, blueberry and mint herbal teas, among others.

I'm very definitely a coffee person.

I didn't know if you knew this about M Squad, but it was from a time when television seasons were much, much longer than they are today. That show had 117 outings in its three seasons on the air, which is incredibly unheard of today.

I've been watching M Squad every night with my father; I'm on the seventh disc of it, and have seen through episode 49.
