Me too!Loved that Angie Dickinson![]()
I watched 8 out of this lot on UK tv in the 70's.... My brother who is a ear younger than me sat religiously in front of Charlies' Angels, refusing to go out anywhere when it was on .. so he could get his fill of Kate Jackson
That's close. He actually said, "Who loves ya baby?"did Kojak say "Who loves yer baby"?

Has anyone mentioned Saturday Night Live?
Hardly anyone had video recorders so on Saturday nights, you either had to be home by 11 to watch it or you had to stay wherever you were and watch it there. If you didn't, then you'd have nothing to talk about at work on Monday morning. You'd walk in and someone would yell, "But noooooooo.....!!!" and everyone would laugh and you'd have no idea what was going on.
Land Shark......Samurai Night Fever......"Jane, you ignorant slut"........The Two Swinging Brothers from Czechoslovakia........."I'm Chevy Chase and you're not!"......Emily Latella and Todd Delamucca.....Rosanne Rosannadanna.... the Coneheads - "We are from France"....... all catch phrases that were everywhere.
I loved that one at the time. It was wonderfully "campy" and kind of creepy, but not taken to the bloodiest extreme. Years later, I rented the series back when Netflix had a DVD library that was immense, and you could find almost anything you could think of. It was a bit different than I remembered. They put very little effort in creating believable monsters as if they didn't have a budget for them. So they had to compensate by hardly ever showing the monsters. Maybe instead of something scary there might be just a flurry of impossible to identify monster parts, but still the series had a great premise, with Kolchak pursuing creatures, but never coming up with evidence, because he would show up late, or break his camera, or some other stupid reason. But what fun.How about "Kolchak: The Night Stalker". It only lasted one season, but I really liked it.
The one where Elaine ends up taking Jim Ignatowski to some high society charity gettogether, and he volunteers to play the piano because the featured entertainer didn't show up. Elaine is horrified, because he will embarrass both of them. But he somehow remembers that he had once learned to play the piano before he got strung out and wrecked his brain during his drug days. But he turns out to be a virtuoso, and the gettogether is saved from becoming a disaster.Taxi
