Great show! Hey Meds, I sent in a quick audio for The Young Ones but not sure if it was sent, double check, it went to you gmail.

Hey Meds!

I just started listening to your episode about ST:TNG. It's great hearing the two of you banter and waffle. Of course I got into it during my teens. I definitely liked the latter episodes and most of the episodes with Data. Loved Unification where he and Spock have their scenes. Of course Data is the only one who can pull off the vulcan neck pinch but can't get Riker's hair "Quite Right." I also really enjoyed the episodes with "broccoli" oops I meant Barkley. I had no idea that he was on The A-Team. I haven't heard your A-Team one yet but I do have a personal experience to add. When I was in middle school, one summer we went to Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream in Vermont. Mr. T was there signing autographs. He was all decked out with his chains and Mohawk. Pretty cool. Love his WoW commercials.

Hope that you are doing well!

Meds...how about a Waffle On about Lost In Space?? Or..how about the short lived series, Quark? :)

Meds

Good choices Al but we do have a slight rule that we both have watched the subject consistently because we like to have that personal touch to it. I may research it as much as possible but we still need to have some passion about it. Lost in Space we only watched a bit, and I'm not familiar with Quark though in the future it may change.

Keep coming up with suggestions though :)

What about a SME (Subject Matter Expert) guesting on the show? Just a thought...Quark was a very short lived Sci-Fi Space Sitcom of sorts, starring Richard Benjamin. It kind of reminded me of some BBC stuff...

If you don't do Peter Sellars / Pink Panther movies then I will. ;)

Geoffrey Rush did a great movie called "The Life and Death of Peter Sellers." Have you seen it? I thought he did a great job, but that's just my opinion. I've watched it with the commentary and it's great just listening to how they got into making the film.

Just finished listening to the Magnum P.I. Waffle On. That was really cool. I definitely like Tom Selleck with a moustache. Guys that I'm used to seeing with a moustache look totally weird without them. I remember the first time I saw my dad without his, I said "Where's my dad?" I couldn't believe it was really him. Definitely a Clark Kent/Superman moment. Guys who usually wear glasses look so different without them on. I had a really huge crush on my Chemistry Teacher in high school and when he would take his glasses off, he just looked so different in a very good way.

I liked Tom Selleck in Magnum, Three Men and a Baby (which was directed by Leonard Nimoy!), Three Men and a Little Lady (there are rumors that they may actually make another one called Three Men and a Bride). I definitely loved Quigley more because of Alan Rickman. I also loved him in Her Alibi. That movie was so funny because he thinks she's trying to kill him.

Another tie to Magnum was a promo that they did for Monk a few years ago. They did a spoof off the show Magnum and played the music and called it Monk P.I. I'll attach the link. Have you ever watched Monk? That would be a great Waffle On episode to cover.

Hope that you are well!

The Life and Death of Peter Sellars is based on the biography of the same name I believe. That book is a great read, much check out the movie.

You so should see the movie. I ended up picking it up. I Netflixed it first and then I picked it up. Geoffrey is just genius in the role of Peter Sellers. It's made in the way as if Peter Sellers was telling his own story. The other actors were wonderful too.

Just finished to listening to "Life of Brian" podcast. I've had very limited Monty Python experience. My dad is a fan and I have friends that are fans too. I loved their tribute to George Harrison during "Concert for George." I always wondered what the connection between them was. I do like Eric Idle a lot. I loved him in "Nuns on the Run" with Robbie Coltrane. I think it's great that his character's name is Brian. That's a great comedy.

What's the deal with John Cleese? Did they have a falling out or is he just more focused on his solo work? When I watched "Concert for George," I noticed that he wasn't involved. Tom Hanks ended up taking his place.

Listening to the "Dr. Who" Waffle On now. I went to Borders (bookstore going out of business) and picked up a Tom Baker Dr. Who DVD. I figured I might as well pick one up while the deals are good. I can't imagine what it will be like not going into a bookstore. Of course there is always the library! ;-) My first memory of Dr. Who was definitely Tom Baker. He has such a great smile. Always seemed to be smiling. He was such a large actor. (I say was even though I know he's still alive). He's also got a great voice.

Got it Bry, thanks mate.

Zarabeth, which Tom Baker episode did you get? Tom was my first Dr, though Peter Davison was the one i fully remember. You cant beat going into book stores, such a sad state of affairs that we are losing them. I loved the life and death of peter sellars, he was such a troubled soul at times, a man who couldnt be himself.

I just think it was a conflict of appointments that John didnt do the concert for George. He got on very well with him, I have issues with Idle, which is a shame because i too loved him in Nuns on the Run, but i feel he has been flogging Python for every dime he can get his hands on. :D
