"Scaramouche" (1952) While it's not totally a successful Flashmman movie "Royal Flash" (1975) is a fun parody of "The Prisoner of Zenda" (The Flashman books are worthwhile reads, as long as you aren't offended by their political incorrectness)

Or they can look exactly the same in every selfie they take, with the same frozen stupid face. (Sorry....) -

They think they are being clever, but they manage to miss the boat every time. Really you have to wonder if they work at it. -

Unlike dogs, cats generally will eat when they are hungry and stop when they feel full. If a big bag of cat food fell on the floor a cat might peck at it. If a bag of dog food fell on the floor, the dog would sit there and eat the whole thing. If you throw something to a cat, it will let fall on the floor, sniff it and maybe deign to eat it. If you throw something to a dog it will catch it, swallow it, then wonder what the hell it just ate. At least that's my experience. -

Too bad they don't have any "Valerie" episodes. I haven't seen that for a long time. -

The kid's cute, but no real kid in that situation would react like that. It's lazy writing. I blame the ad company. -

R.I.P., Valerie Harper has passed away after a long bout with cancer. Best known as "Rhoda" from "MTM Show" and her own spinoff "Rhoda", also her series "Valerie." -

When I had my tonsils out as a little kid, one of the kids I shared a room with was in because he basically wouldn't eat anything. I was amazed that he wouldn't even eat mashed potatoes. The only thing I remember him eating on his own was ice cream. My family always accused me of being picky, but after meeting that kid I felt a lot better. -

Yes, I don't like the management. We used to have Schlotzsky's which was really good (I liked the muffaletta sandwich), but they closed all the ones around here. The main drawback to Jersey Mike's is they don't do soup and I like soup and a sandwich, esp. in the winter. -

Quiznos wasn't too bad, they ran the sandwich through the oven long enough to really toast it. As does Potbelly's. Jersey Mike's fresh slices all its meats and cheeses for your sandwich. It's rosemary parm bread has a little crustiness. -

I prefer Jersey Mike's. Don't like Jimmy John's bread (the downfall of almost all these sub places. I like bread "crusty," just like me). The best is Potbelly's but I think that's mainly a Midwest place, but they do have some in other states. -

Starting Sat., at 4 am (all times CT) ZLiving will start showing "The Prisoner." They will also be showing "The Red Skelton Show" early Sun. at 4 am and early Mon. at 12 and 1 am. This week they had a Fred Williamson marathon of movies including "Warriors of the Wasteland" a Eurotrash Italian ripoff of "Mad Max" set in the far-distant future time of 2019 A.D. -

The ones I remember were small, flat, deep-fried with just unknown ground, spiced meat in them, none of that sissy lettuce! https://www.delish.com/food-news/a28277762/jack-in-the-box-testing-tiny-tacos/ This was the size, but not quite how they looked (though the new ones probably don't look like this anyway). These don't have the deep fried look. -

They're really high in people, too (I'm pushing this until it becomes a meme!). In fact, their ads should say "Impossible Burgers, now with more people." -

Plus "Lone Ranger", "Roy Rogers" (not to mention "Gunsmoke") are on multiple channels, MTM is not. -

I like "Wild Wild West" but MTM and "Dick van Dyke Show" should not be that to find, these are among the top, if not the top, shows of all time. -

I always wish the driver gets out of the car and it rolls back down the 999 steps (because he doesn't pull it all the way onto the platform). -

He was my representative. He also made fun of Tammy Duckworth for being a disabled veteran.

Based on the pictures on their website (which, with fast food places, usually can't be trusted), it doesn't look like they offer their original little tacos anymore. Their tacos now look more like real tacos (in this case, not a good thing). -

Car ads are turning into perfume ads, both now feature smugly good-looking people doing incomprehensible stuff (such as floating around on "It"'s red balloon). I'm waiting for someone to say a condom. -

Between Flo and Jamie, I think I'd take Jaime, but maybe because he hasn't been around as long. I'm glad for her that Flo has a steady job, but it's time to retire. -

Maybe it's unfair because people in the Midwest (or at least the Chicago area) can't get Jack in the Box (I used to love their little tacos).
