I Used To Watch This?

Also know as, Bridge Across Time, is a TV movie about Jack the Ripper somehow traveling through time to 1985 Arizona. Specifically, to the London Bridge that was moved from London to Arizona. See, it all makes perfect sense. This movie stars David Hasselhoff, Stepfanie Kramer, Randolph Mantooth and Adrienne Barbeau, so a very big named cast. The Hoff is a cop who moved from Chicago, we hear about that a lot, and he is the only one who can figure out these murders that are happening in London Village area. It's weird, very cheesy and totally 80s. Check it out. 

Happy Election Day to our US listeners! Today we look at an appropriately themed show called Top of the Hill. William Katt place a newly elected congressman who wants to make a difference, and may get more than he bargained for. Check it out! 

This week we check out the Pilot to Murder She Wrote, starring the delightful Angela Landsury. Jessica Fletcher is a widow, part time school teacher and newly minted author, thanks to her nephew's meddling. Turns out she has a knack for solving murders, who knew? While on a whirlwind book tour she stumbles upon a murder and this is her first time solving one for real. This pilot has so many guest stars the whole time you watch it you like, oh look, it's him, or her! Check it out! 

This week we are talking about a short-live crime/P.I. show called Tenspeed and Brown Show. It starred Jeff Goldlum (yes, him) and Ben Vereen as a young stock broker and a con-man, in that order. They are brought together after Tenspeed (Vereen) steals some money out of a bank that was put there by a mobster who stole it from a Nazi. It is a bit confusing. Check it out! 

We talk about The Fall Guy movie then The Fall Guy TV show episode Inside, Outside. Both have some crazy moments, but we think one part of the TV show id crazier. Take a listen! 

Nick and Cody are watching over some college girls as they vacation in California. Somebody is trying to kidnap them, but the girls seem clueless to it and would rather party than be protected. At one point I think the guys wish they would be kidnapped. Oh, one of the bad guys is none other than George Clooney! Check it out! 

Hunter and McCall get wrapped up in a gang war in Chinatown. Was Hunter's buddy in on it? Can they stop an all out war? Will Hunter actually eat any Chinese food? Listen to find out the answers! 

In honor of Bob Newhart we decided to watch the first episode of both The Bob Newhart Show and Newhart. Two very different shows with the same deadpan leading man. One has Bob playing Bob who is a psychologist living in Chicago. And Newhart has Bob as Dick who purchases an Inn in Vermont with his with. Both shows have their odd characters and each first episode features a classic Bob on the phone bit. Check it out! 

Oh, the 80s. You can have a show that is basically for kids, but the main kid is kind of a scheming jerk and would drive adults crazy. That is "It's You Move" for you. Starring a young Jason Bateman, it was a show that was about a boy and his family where the boy tried to get away with as much as possible. According to Bateman it was cancelled because parents complained. Check it out! 

This week on Columbo we have William Shatner guest starring as a famous TV detective who murders his producer/blackmailer. Very meta. Columbo like the guy, it seems, and genuinely likes hanging out with him even as he is trying to prove him guilty. Ward  (Shatner) seems to have a little problem separating his TV persona from real life and tries to help Columbo. It's gets a little weird, but it is a lot of fun. Check it out!
