Michael C Hall has recovered from his cancer, so I think they will be shooting Season 5 of Dexter soon. But on a more important note, it is cool that he made a complete recovery!

Was inspired by another thread to re-watch the Twilight Zone's "Night of the Meek".
Still one of my all time favorite tv episodes. Sensational writing by Rod Serling.

As I think about it, the thing I miss more than the tv programming is the old network tv boxing shows. It was so great to see the likes of Muhammed Ali, Floyd Patterson, Sugar Ray Leonard, Sugar Ray Robinson, Archie Moore, and George Foreman on LIVE tv and you did not have to pay high cable bills to watch those fights.
Oh for those days!
Oh for those days!
All in the Family was pretty well my favourite of all time. The whole cast was good............Archie, Edith, the Meathead, Gloria. I don't think I've laughed so hard since!
The new series of Red Dwarf - Red Dwarf XI - is coming out next year, you smeghead.
Joe Franklin, RIP:

Joe Franklin, who became a New York institution by presiding over one of the most compellingly low-rent television programs in history, one that even he acknowledged was an oddly long-running parade of has-beens and yet-to-bes interrupted from time to time by surprisingly famous guests, died on Saturday in a hospice in Manhattan. He was 88. Steve Garrin, Mr. Franklin’s producer and longtime friend, said the cause was prostate cancer.
A short, pudgy performer with a sandpapery voice that bespoke old-fashioned show business razzle-dazzle, Mr. Franklin was one of local television’s most enduring personalities. He took his place behind his desk and in front of the camera day after day in the 1950s and night after night in the 1960s, ’70s, ’80s and ’90s.
In 1993, he said that he had hosted more than 300,000 guests in his more than 40 years on the air.
Never was the most exciting show or the brightest personality on TV, but the guy and his show was something to watch when there was nothing else going on. Watch his show every once in a while and to his credit the guy did often bring out the best in his guests. He had a small studio with a tiny office and genuinely was a New York institution.
