Northern Exposure

Whoa, another Trump reference in Northern Exposure, this time season 3, episode 1. Maurice is talking with Officer Barbara Simanski about why she's leaving, which she explains is because she believes Maurice is breaking the law after hearing a phone message from his accountant.

Maurice says: Besides it's not the law, it's the tax code. I bet Donald Trump doesn't pay a dime!

This was filmed in 1992. Seriously, who would have imagined where things would be today.
 

I had forgotten about that one ! You just can't escape it all , can you ?

Maurice is an interesting characters. Not sure if the writers knew what to do with him at times but he was always fun to watch.
 
I'm still watching season three, and I'm noticing how much Janine Turner mugs for the camera, which now I'm finding a bit annoying. Funny how you see different things on subsequent viewings.

The other thing I read recently that was apparently quite controversial is that the DVDs left out a lot of the original music soundtrack because of copyright issues, and instead substituted more generic music. I'd forgotten how much great music was in the original.
 

I had forgotten about the music issue also until I watched it again. It does change the vibe of the station some. I had the same feeling when watched The Wonder Years on Netflix. Music is different on that version also.
