Actionmage January 24, 2016 Share January 24, 2016 Mine is an anime from the late 80s/early 90s. I watched it on VHS at a friends house and it must've been between '91 and '93 that I saw it, but it might've come out a few years earlier. I think it was a movie, or part of a movie series. It took place on a space ship, and there were several female characters (there might've been some male ones, but I only vaguely recall girls/women). I think one or a few of them were robots or humanoids or whatever. She (or they) looked and acted like humans, the one in particular I'm thinking of was a redhead and I think she had a yellow-ish suit. And there was some sort of sinister spectre onboard, hunting them, and it was like a see-through blob thing. One of the characters was engulfed by it and electrocuted somehow? This might all be faulty memory. In the end I think only a few of the crew survived, killing the spectre blob thing. I think they eventually found a planet to settle down on. Sound familiar to anyone? Did I just dream I saw this? Could it be Saber Marionette J ( or any of that group of series)? ( Link to TV Tropes' entry: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Anime/SaberMarionetteJ) It also has links to the other series, if you saw one further along. There was mention of : "In an episode of J, the three marionettes fell "ill" (actually they bodies started to overload because they were absorbing a lot of energy from a huge underground plasma cloud, simulating a fever) and Otaru, [snip]" ( Otaru is the male lead and there seems to be other male characters too.) This was the page image for the show: http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lt/smj.jpg I hope that helps get you closer, if it isn't it.

ABay February 1, 2016 Share February 1, 2016 Help, please! It was British so probably on Masterpiece Theater. I think it focused on a girl. What I remember is her developing a friendship with a soldier/officer who was very sick, probably gassed in WW1, and had holed up in a cottage to die. And the song "I've got sixpence, jolly, jolly sixpence..." I thought Frank Finlay was the dying man, but nothing in his IMDB list looks like the thing I remember.

questionfear March 9, 2016 Share March 9, 2016 I have two: One was two brothers who were aliens, and if you hit one the other felt it...and I feel like there was a running gag where one would be making out with someone and the other would start steaming or something like that. And they were on the run from the government. The second is super, super vague, and I can't quite figure out if I actually am remembering a specific show or if I am conflating a whole bunch of shows. But what I remember was that it involved space, astronauts or explorers or something, and someone maybe got shot? And someone's long lost parent was there or showed up suddenly, and maybe someone was playing chess or a similar board game? These might be three different shows. Or three scenes from the same show. The closest I've found is that maybe it was Space 1999, but it would have had to be in reruns because I was born in 1981. I have a strong memory of watching it in my grandmother's kitchen.

Ubiquitous June 17, 2016 Share June 17, 2016 Most everyone remembers The Saint, but I remember watching a spin-off or special eps starring his nerdy nephew. I wish I could remember more details, but I was watching The Saint in the mornings and one day it switched to the new show with the same name! I think there was a scene with the nephew being self-conscious about wearing a speedo on a beach, or maybe that was an act to make his investigation less conspicuous. I think this was in the early 1980's, but I'm sure it's not the late 1980's spinoff The Return of The Saint. Also, does anyone remember a show that was like American Gladiators but was D&D themed?

Crazy sister? Check. Sister named Blanche in a wheelchair? Check. Crazy sister ties Blanche to a bed? Check."

Living Dead February 2, 2017 Share February 2, 2017 So I saw this episode on a show one time and I don't remember where it's from. So I'm going to give you a brief summary based on what I remember. I remember there was a young brunette with long hair. Probably around 20 or so. I don't know who she was but she looked a little bit like Ren Stevens from Even Stevens. And she was at dinner with an attractive dirty blonde lady who was probably about 35 to 40 years old. And they kissed. I believe that the young brunnete woke up from a dream. Or maybe it was a day dream. I wish I remembered more details. But I always remember this episode and don't remember what show this was from.

TaraS1 February 2, 2017 Share February 2, 2017 Anyone else remember the sitcoms that were on TBS back in the 80's? There was one called Down to Earth, where a flapper from the 20's gets hit by a trolley (according to the theme song) and somehow comes back to earth as a housekeeper for an 80's family. I'm 99% sure the father was played by one of the Darrins from Bewitched. The second one was called Rocky Road, and it was about siblings running an ice cream shop on a boardwalk. The parents had died, I think, so the older sister took care of the younger sister and brother and they all worked at the shop together. There might have even been an elderly black man in it. And I think the third one might have been called Safe at Home. All I remember is that the main character used to play for the Chicago Bears. There were younger kids in this one too, but I can't remember if they were his siblings, kids he adopted, kids he didn't know he had before, etc. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/64469-less-than-total-recall-whats-the-name-of-this-series-i-vaguely-remember/page/2/#findComment-2953979

DisneyBoy April 7, 2017 Share April 7, 2017 (edited) I'm so glad this thread exists - there was some show that I think was Canadian that played in either the late eighties or the early nineties where this girl emerged from this white plexiglass octagonal sphere thing that I think transported her through time maybe and I have no idea what the premise of the show was. Or what it was called. Or who starred in it. I just remember that it was kind of a fantasy show with this sphere business going on... ... but I also wonder if I'm not conflating it with another show that I think was called The Odyssey that aired in the late eighties/early nineties that was about a boy who fell into a coma and the coma transported him into this fantasy world where all the people in his life were playing kind of Lost Boy-style characters in the woods and they were in the middle of this conflict between all the kids. I think those were two different shows. It's just this visual of some kind of octagonal spherical ship made of white plexiglass or gray plexiglass or something like that and a girl walking out of it that has stayed with me for a long time. I hope someone else knows what on Earth I'm talking about because I have absolutely no leads on this one.

DisneyBoy April 7, 2017 Share April 7, 2017 (edited) Thanks for the reply. TTP is waaay too recent. This was some 1990 TV series thing. Man I wish I could remember more about it...but the lead character was this girl who traveled in the sphere thing. The SFX weren't much but it was played rather seriously if I recall... Maybe it was a British import?

festivus April 7, 2017 Share April 7, 2017 I have no idea about your show but TTP was originally a British TV show from the 70's. According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tomorrow_People it had a remake in 1992 besides the recent one on the CW. I've never seen either one of the old ones but it may be the show you're thinking of.

Or what it was called. Or who starred in it. I just remember that it was kind of a fantasy show with this sphere business going on... ... but I also wonder if I'm not conflating it with another show that I think was called The Odyssey that aired in the late eighties/early nineties that was about a boy who fell into a coma and the coma transported him into this fantasy world where all the people in his life were playing kind of Lost Boy-style characters in the woods and they were in the middle of this conflict between all the kids. I think those were two different shows.

If I remember correctly that had a time capsule that looks like your description. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/64469-less-than-total-recall-whats-the-name-of-this-series-i-vaguely-remember/page/2/#findComment-3166455
DisneyBoy April 10, 2017 Share April 10, 2017 Wow - that's exactly it!!! *applauds* I am amazed anybody had any clue what the hell I was talking about. Thank you so much for clearing that up.

barrysergin June 20, 2017 Share June 20, 2017 i remember watching this def comedy jam type tv show in the 90's, don't know if it was actually def comedy jam. it was stand up comedy. one of the comics, a black man, was talking about washington d.c. and in the voice that black comics use to imitate white people, he says something like, "white people when they visit washington d.c., they go there and say 'look at all the ****ing buildings!'" anybody know what this is from? thanks.
