LOL! Yep, Bandit is the Spritle/Chim-Chim of JQ.

Yes! I loved both of these cartoons. I loved SR since I was probably 5. I've seen a few over the last 2 years, and some hold up pretty well, but probably not as much as JQ.

Do you remember the cartoons, Prince Planet (played TV mid 60s into early 70s on UHF stations in Chicago) and Battle of the Planets (1978-1985)? The former you probably saw as a kid. The later was very good (IGN 44th best animated series) but may have been after your time.

At least no one can talk about PC (a term I hate how it's used today) with Battle of the Planets. The bad guy in that was fixed for the US version back then before my time.


War of the Worlds TV -

This one not the mini series.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_of...019_TV_series)

I can't recommend this show unless you want to just watch the first few episodes. Those are pretty good. But afterwards, the show starts to introduce some soap opera elements. And those aren't resolved in this season. I was surprised that the show received a second season as those bad elements left me not wanting to continue the show. But I guess I'll see how it ends as the final scene was kind of promising.

Fright Club

New show on Discovery+ with the Ghost Brothers and Jack Osbourne. They review various videos of "spooky" stuff, and decide if they think it's for real. Kinda boring so far. I'd rather see the Ghost Brothers bust some ghosts!

Crime Scene: The Vanishing At the Cecil Hotel

Very interesting documentary about the disappearance of Elisa Lam. On Netflix. The Cecil is one of the hotels that American Horror Story: Hotel is based on. Specifically, the design.

The Equalizer

A reboot starring Queen Latifah. I liked it. So far. ::wink::

I'm drawing a complete blank on both of those cartoons, Sculpt. There were some good UHF channels in the Chicago area, especially Channel 32. Remember catching re-runs of THE BRADY BUNCH (where the announcer always mentioned something to do with "Pe-TAH!") and LOST IN SPACE (..."With the LOVELY Marta Kristen!")

Oh, I forgot you grew up in the Chicagoland area like I did. There was Channel 32 that had Brady Bunch, 60's Batman, 60's Spiderman, 60's Avengers cartoons, Lost In Space (loved it, Judy was lovely, as was Penny), and eventually Battle of the Planets, although that may have been on Ch 44.

Then there was WSNS-TV Channel 44... now that channel had a lot of Japanese shows reworked with English for American kids including Prince Planet in the early 70s. Maybe you never found Ch 44?

Ch 44 also had Space Giants (1965-67) US airing early 1970, Johnny Sokko And His Flying Robot (1967-68) US airing 1969-80's), Ultraman (1966-67) US airing 1966-80s, and Spectreman (1971-72) US airing probably 1977).

Servant, Season 2 Episode 5. 8/10

I lived in Fort Sheridan (closed and think it's a Community...being that close to Lake Michigan would almost ensure that) from August 1976-June 1979; one of my Dad's longer tours and that last move was very tough.
I remember those SPIDER-MAN cartoons! -That cool music::cool::! And I'm sure I checked out 44 at some point, just not as clear to Me as 32 was.
For a couple of years up there, would start watching Bears games; didn't really care so much, was just hoping to fit in at school somehow. Remember Walter

Payton was a God and He really was too good for the team than...they could be quite erratic. Also was really getting into Hard music than with KISS, especially decorating my room with posters of them and others.

Because I have too much time on my hands::big grin::, I remember VERY well Channel 44 out of Oakland CA in 1971, especially OUTER SPACE THEATER Saturday 2;30, SCIENCE FICTION THEATER 7:30, Kick Boxing and Championship Wresting at 5 with Pat Patterson, Rocky "Soul Man" Johnson, "Luscious" Lars Anderson, The Great Mephisto and Ernie Ladd sticking out. With Hank Renner commentating-quite animated!-and the Lovely Miss Wrestling (putting a Blue Ribbon on the Winner's name) later becoming Miki Garcia::love::::love:: Miss January 1973 in PLAYBOY

What's your opinion of Clarice? Worth checking out?
