Welcome Back!

The Welcome Back, Kotter tune rambling through my head is appropriate for this post today. It looks as though the Writers Guild of America strike is coming to an end. HURRAH!!!

Our favorite late night shows could be current as early as Wednesday night. Other shows with a longer production lead time could be back on by early April. Granted, some epics (e.g. Heroes, 24) will likely wait until fall to get back in the saddle but as long a mama gets a little candy things will be just fine.

I would be remiss in my shout out to the 70’s with out paying homage the author of one of my favorite generic ‘oh sh*t’ lines, ‘We’re gonna need a bigger boat.’ Roy Scheider, famous for the line as Chief Martin Brody in Jaws, died yesterday—he was 75.

Would I be too much of a geek slash TV junkie if I admitted I never missed SeaQuest DSV?

Gotta say I loved SQ:DSV too. So I hit up IMDB to see what the cast members were up to now, and was reminded that Roy Scheider had passed the day before you posted this.

Oh duh, what a coincidence we were talking about the same Roy...

You so button-hooked me!
