| 31636 | Sitcoms | I'd all but forgotten about Amen. Seems like there were a few shows that focused on a religious figure protagonist around that time. Ranging from comedy (Amen) to mystery/drama (Father Dowling Mysteries). You don't see that much any more.<br> | Vaporman87 | May 08, 2016 |  |
| 31635 | Zootopia | I liked almost all of the witty banter between Judy and Nick. It was really well written and acted.<br> | Vaporman87 | May 08, 2016 | |
| 31634 | What song are you listening to? | <blockquote rel="eddstarr"><b>eddstarr wrote :</b><br><i> Well here I am everybody, still stuck in the 80's. <div>But I think I know the way out . . . it's thisaway:</div></i><b>-end quote</b></blockquote>Never heard that song Edd, but it has that 80's R&B flavor mixed with soft, elevator music (must be the horns). Interesting sound.<br> | Vaporman87 | May 08, 2016 | |
| 31633 | Superhero Showdown is Back | I've never heard of that site, but seeing it resurrected still makes me smile. I think we'll see more of this type of thing as the years go by. The internet (at least in it's current form) is over twenty years old now. Hard to believe that, but it's true. There is nostalgia to be found, even with regard to websites of the past. Nice find echidna.<br> | Vaporman87 | May 08, 2016 | |

It's a dog thing. </i><b>-end quote</b></blockquote>And they even made time for a doggie treat parody commercial, right inside the episode. <div><br></div><div>Every cartoon series has at least one outstanding episode. Two Stupid Dogs had several and became a favorite of mine and a few of the boys down at the office where I worked at the time.</div><div><br></div><div>Unlike Ren and Stimpy, Two Stupid Dogs hit me on a different comedy level that I found more appealing. But I would never trade one show for the other, I wanted them both!</div> | eddstarr | May 07, 2016 | |

Did you notice that Pat really shows off her range and stylings? She is an example of the kinda talent that Broadway and Hollywood made famous. Love the way talented artists play with a song to make it their own.</div> | eddstarr | May 07, 2016 | |
| 31628 | Sitcoms | Comedy was King in the last decades of the 20th century, and by 1990, NBC was on Top of the World with some of the most popular sitcoms on television.<div style="font-style: normal;"><br></div><img src="https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/c2/71/9e/c2719eda47c197c0a44a5f4f9e07a55e.jpg"><div style="font-style: normal;">After "The Jeffersons", Sherman Hemsley starred in NBC's newest comedy series, "Amen" in 1986. I had no idea at the time that this was a "golden age" for black actors in all forms of entertainment on TV. Free from the character of George Jefferson, Sherman Hemsley got to expand his appeal with a new venue and a new cast on a new show.</div><div style="font-style: normal;"><br></div><div><span style="font-style: normal;">I've been waiting for a HQ YouTube clip from the Amen episode, "</span><span style="font-style: italic;">Wedding Bell Blues</span>", but all I can find is a very poor quality video from 2011.</div><div style="font-style: normal;"><br></div><div>This is a long clip, so you'll have to be patient - it has one of the funniest courtroom scenes this side of "Night Court" where Sherman Hemsley's character, Deacon Frye, calls his accuser, "a chainsaw in a skirt". On the night that NBC aired this episode, Sherman Hemsley proved that when it came to comedy: He's Our Man, <span style="font-style: italic;">LOL!</span></div> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/qFTkfZ5jd3U" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> | eddstarr | May 07, 2016 | |
