Mannix! Same plot every show. Great song! | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 12:28pm
Ike:
Yeah, and a lot of real detectives are OLD too, aren't they? The first couple of seasons of Homicide: Life on the Street were esp. realistic because they had people like Melissa Leo and chunky older dudes like Ned Beatty as detectives. | |
|

Duane:
Ike: Homicide was great! I even loved Cagney and Lacey | |

Smalltalk reminds me of the Vegas (w robert urich) theme song. One of my favorite PI shows of all time. | |

Ike:
Too bad NBC made Homicide add models later in the show's run. (But in those later seasons, David Simon started writing for TV, so without them I guess "The Wire" would never have existed.) Never saw Cagney & Lacey. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 12:43pm
Duane:
Cagney & Lacey's great just becasue the women were gritty and over 40, had grey hair and cursed! | |
|

I wonder if my criteria for the worst crime are the same as Dan August's criteria for the worst crime. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 12:52pm
Ike:
The worst crime is the writing in the average episode of Criminal Minds. Heh. :P | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 12:52pm
jaycjay:
@Ike, yeah, the last season of Homicide was, from the beginning with the 3-part arc with James Earl Jones, almost like they were starting to rip off Miami Vice. Helicopter chase! | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 12:53pm
Duane:
Ike: That is the worse!! | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 12:54pm
jaycjay:
And I remember being really p.o.'d about how that 3-parter's finale hinged on a completely fictional interpretation of the Miranda rules. Not the H:LOTS I loved... even besides the suddenly beautiful cst. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 12:54pm
jaycjay:
cst=cast | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 12:59pm
jaycjay:
But the realistic part, yeah, early seasons. Wasn't it season 2 before there was any gunfire at all? And that was when they were ambushed in a hallway and a couple of the detectives were shot, and it was shocking... unlike most cop shows where a cast member gets shot a few times a season, and they all have killed five or six people. | |

Anybody remember Banacek, with George Peppard? | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:19pm
Duane:
jaycjay: I remember that! I brought that theme..you'll be hearing it soon! | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:23pm
Mike East:
Love the mix today, Duane! Good tunes and good weather eliminates my desire to work. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:24pm
Duane:
Thanx Mike | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:25pm
jaycjay:
Nice! I thought maybe I only know Banacek because I live among the Polish in Greenpoint. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:27pm
Cecile:
I remember Banacek. Good afternoon everyone | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:28pm
Cecile:
Did you do a tribute to Peter Falk? Is it on its way? | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:32pm
Duane:
Hi Cecile,,yeah today we celebrate the great Falk and all of the other great 70's cop shows | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:34pm
Cecile:
Thanks, Duane! | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:36pm
Cecile:
this is priceless! | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:38pm
J J:
This song makes me want to slow dance with myself. Man, I didn't even know Peter Falk died. Where have I been? | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:42pm
Cecile:
Ike, ITA about the last season of Homicide. Stivers was a great addition, but not so much everyone else. Which is a bummer. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:43pm
Cecile:
J J, it was announced, but I think other deaths/trials pushed it out of the headlines. Poor fella had Alzheimer's for the last 2 yrs of his life. It was probably a release for him. :( | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:47pm
Duane:
YeahCecille..so upsetting that Falk went out like that. He was such a character | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:47pm
Ike:
Oh yeah, Stivers was excellent, but then they didn't give her hardly any screen time. Oh well. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:48pm
jaycjay:
Stivers, though, actually appeared in season 5... it was season 6 where things really started to change, with Jon Seda and Callie Thorne added and Melissa Leo gone. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:50pm
Ike:
Ugh, Jon Seda. Ugh. Ugh. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:50pm
Cecile:
that's true, jaycjay, but many HLOTS fans lump her in with the last crew. And let's not forget the wooden Michael Michelle. But Giancarlo Esposito got a little to do as well. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:51pm
Cecile:
I also was bummed that they chickened out with Bayliss's bisexual storyline. They brought it up and then dropped it. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:54pm
still b/p:
"You know, you're an audacious fellow." Anyone know who that guest perp is? | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:55pm
Cecile:
I think it's Roy Scheider. Clark Johnson once said of Michael Michelle: "She was the best actress available in the greater Baltimore area at the time." | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:58pm
J J:
I wonder how many times he said "oh and just one more thing" as he was walking away. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 1:58pm
Duane:
Michael Michelle! She successfully sued Eddie Murphy for sexual harassment. She was originally cast in Harlem Nights as Murphy's love interest. When she brushed off his advances she got fired! | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:00pm
Cecile:
Good for her. She was wasn't great on Homicide, but good for her for sticking up for herself. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:00pm
jaycjay:
@Cecile: Ha! That doesn't say much for the Baltimore acting community. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:02pm
Cecile:
LOL! it's on the actual commentary... | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:02pm
still b/p:
If you told me this was Gladys Knight, I'd believe you. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:03pm
Cecile:
Toward the end, they were kind of grooming Michelle as a female Pembleton. But considering how the network brass couldn't handle Melissa Leo, that portrayal of an untraditional woman went by the wayside. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:13pm
Carmichael:
Hope you include Mannix, Duane. He was my favorite private detective. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:14pm
Cecile:
Rockford Files! | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:14pm
Duane:
Carmichael: LOVE Mannix. I played the TV theme earlier | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:15pm
J J:
Anyone remember The Equalizer? That was "gritty" in a 80's NY sort of way. The intro to that show creeped me out and the theme song was pretty awesome. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g87nDBIyqeU | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:16pm
Cecile:
I liked the first couple of seasons. Edward Woodward was great. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:18pm
Cecile:
yes! | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:18pm
jaycjay:
Oh yeah, Rockford was great. And I used to try to style my answering machine message after his, but I'm sure I'm not alone in that. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:18pm
Ike:
That was an awesome theme song by Stewart Copeland, ex-Police drummer. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:19pm
andymorphic:
my mum has some edward woodward albums.....should give him a spin | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:19pm
Carmichael:
Thanks, Duane. I'll check the archives later. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:19pm

Stew cCpeland a big influence growing up- not in the same league as this Moonshadow, however | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:37pm
Cecile:
this is amazing. It sounds like a Romany Kinks. | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:38pm
15M-Spanish revolution:
Ha ha, that one is by Smash, a great band from Seville (where I live now in Spain) doing a groovy cover of a classic flamenco song!!! :-) | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:42pm
15M-Spanish revolution:
It was a progressive (not too much) band, when local traditional music (under Franco dictatorship) where recieving influence by US rock brought by American marines in military bases settled around here. (This bases are still here to control the Mediterranean Sea) | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:43pm
Cecile:
that's so cool. I'm glad to know the backgroujnd behind the song! | |
|
Wed. 6/29/11 2:48pm
Ike:
LOL at this Don Covay song title. I agree w/him! | |
